What are your go-to staples for your self-care day?
What are your absolute favorite self-care items that you can’t live without? Whether it’s a luxurious skincare product, a cozy blanket, a soothing candle, or even supplements, I’d love to know what helps you relax, recharge, and feel your best. Bonus points if it’s something unique or has a special routine or ritual tied to it! 🌿✨
I never thought I’d be the type of person to rely on a chunky blanket daily, but the Lola Blanket completely changed my mind. From the moment I first curled up under it, I felt this instant wave of calm—like a warm hug but without the overheating. Unlike some weighted blankets that feel stiff or too heavy, Lola’s is perfectly balanced with just the right amount of pressure to be soothing, not suffocating. The material is also buttery soft, making it my go-to for unwinding after a long day. Whether I’m watching TV, reading, or just taking a breather, it’s become an effortless way to de-stress.
The biggest surprise? How much it’s helped with better sleep. I used to toss and turn, but the gentle weight of the Lola keeps me cozy and grounded without feeling trapped. It’s like my body naturally relaxes faster, and I wake up feeling more rested and refreshed. Now, I can’t imagine my nighttime routine without it—it’s easily become my favorite self-care essential.
The Simplehuman Sensor Mirror is hands down my favorite self-care essential—it’s one of those little luxuries that makes a huge difference. The tru-lux lighting system mimics natural daylight perfectly, so you see your makeup, skincare, and grooming with total clarity (no more bad lighting surprises!). The sensor feature is seamless—just lean in, and it lights up instantly. Plus, the rechargeable battery lasts forever, making it super convenient. The magnification options are game-changers for precision tasks like tweezing or eyeliner. If you love an elevated beauty routine, this mirror is a must-have investment—once you try it, you won’t go back!
Living in Boston, a good moisturizer goes a long way and builds a base for anything self-care. My top self-care item for moisturizing in a cold and dry climate is Augustinus Bader’s The Rich Cream. It’s deeply hydrating, packed with nourishing ingredients like TFC8® (Trigger Factor Complex), and leaves the skin feeling replenished without being greasy. Perfect for combating dryness and keeping the skin barrier strong. Costly but effective.
If you need something for the body, Necessaire’s The Body Lotion with niacinamide is a great lightweight but effective option. I like to mix it with its Body Oil on extra dry days. The oil is brand new, and I had to give it a try. It smells so good and a drop goes a long way.
