There are a lot of tricks like this in various fields. One of the simplest ones I can think of comes from the visual arts: when you come to a stopping point, simply turn the paper (canvas, Photoshop workspace, etc.) upside down, and if any of it looks weird from the new perspective, fix that part.
Unfortunately that’d only work for the static parts of UI; I don’t know of any better palate-cleanser for the interactive parts of the experience than simply setting the project down for a while and coming back once you’ve context-switched into something else.

Perhaps you could try randomly changing parts that aren’t what you’re focusing on, like drastically changing the color scheme.
Or switch it all to a new font and size so the arrangements of text are different when you reread it.
