Dream Dust by Moon Juice - Tranquil Rest - Natural Adaptogenic Powder Supplement - Ashwagandha, Chamomile, Jujube, Polygala & Schisandra - Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free (1.5oz)

Amazing product -- amazing. I can't believe I'm writing a testimonial like this because I rarely gush over anything, but this product really works and I am so, so grateful. I have periodic problems falling asleep and staying asleep the whole night. I have a prescription for sleeping pills, which I do not like to take for a few reasons, mainly because I have a sleepy/heavy feeling in my brow the morning after. I have a friend in LA who swears by all of the Moon Juice products, which are very trendy there, but I was very skeptical -- if you read up on Moon Juice, it's definitely very groovy ("plant-based alchemy"? Like, what does that even mean?). At that time, the product was called Good Night Dust, but they have apparently changed the branding to Dream Dust. Anyway... the first night, I took the recommended dose of 1 tsp. and mixed it with almond milk -- it was delicious but did nothing for me, and I felt duped. I mentioned this to my friend and she said -- oh, no, you have to do a "double dose" (she's about half the size I am so I figured if she could do it, so could I -- plus it is also OK'ed on the packaging that you can double up).The next thing that happened was nearly miraculous. I started to feel drowsy within 20 minutes and closed my eyes; I slept the entire night through and woke up the next morning *before my alarm went off* completely and totally refreshed, awake, and energetic. I get the same effect every time I use the product. In fact, once I mixed it into steamed almond milk (regular milk causes my stomach to be upset, which I why I keep saying almond milk -- you go ahead and mix it into whatever you want) at the airport before a red eye flight, and I was asleep before the wheels left the ground and woke up when the plane touched down. There's not enough good that I can say about this product. I am so happy someone told me about it and especially happy that I didn't give up on it.I also have a product by the same company called "Brain Dust," and I can aver that I feel sharper and more focused after taking it. What I really like about these products is that they feel very natural, meaning they don't make you feel like you are "on something" but rather just naturally enhanced. (Of course, what I don't like about the product is the price point -- expensive for sure, especially if you have to take the double dose to get the effect.) I am not a paid reviewer and have had no contact with this company, nor the seller, and like I said, I very rarely rave about anything, but this product is impressive and I felt moved to share my experience with you.

Subtle but Soothing – PatienceI’ve been taking Dream Dust nightly for over a week, and while the effects aren’t instant, I’ve started to feel a more relaxed wind-down in the evenings. The adaptogens like ashwagandha and chamomile seem to work better with consistent use, so don’t expect immediate results in just a few days.That said, the jar is very small for the price, which was disappointing. I did go ahead and purchase a few of Moon Juice’s other blends to support the routine. If you’re looking for a gentle, natural addition to your nighttime ritual and are okay with a gradual effect, this is worth trying.

I’m a fan of this brands other products, but this one is not what I expected. It’s a very small jar which is a little deceiving on the ad for the price. The taste is not that great but not terrible. The texture, it does not dissolve fully so it’s very hard to make sure you get it all out of the bottom of the cup. And lastly, it does work to make you relaxed and want to sleep, but it’s not a stay asleep formula. But when I take it with melatonin I do drift off quite nicely. However, I get the strangest and most vivid dreams. So yes it does work, but it has some room for improvements too.

It costs a lot for such a small jar. I mix this with warm golden milk and now I sleep through the night

I took a teaspoon before bed, on an empty stomach, which caused mild relaxation around 20 minutes later, but not sleepiness. Waited awhile then had a second teaspoon. More of the same, mild relaxation, and not sleepiness, which grew into insomnia. This stuff actually prevented me from being able to sleep. Very disappointed and it was very expensive, $38 for a little jar with 14 teaspoons. Lying awake hours later writing this… Everyone has a different biochemistry, so this may work for some people, but it definitely didn’t work for me. Even with melatonin, it’s still keeping me awake….
