1. A Brita water bottle that'll filter your aqua, wherever you go. Tastier water? Less waste? More convenient? Yep. Now you don't have a single excuse not to get that life juice into your bod!
2. These hydrating eye masks that'll pump some life back into your under-eye area. Reviewers recommend tossing them in the fridge prior to use, because it can help de-puff (especially when you're hungover).
Get six packs from Sephora Canada for $33.
3. A vacuum-insulated water bottle that is so stylish you won't ever forget to bring it with you. It's totally leakproof, and will keep your water icy for up to 24 hours.
4. A First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream that'll undoubtedly quench your skin's thirst. This stuff is thick, but it absorbs quickly — so you won't be left with a slick mask after using it. It uses allantoin which can help soothe eczema, too.
Get it from Sephora Canada for $18+. Available in three sizes.
5. An Ilia mascara that'll lengthen your lashes without drying them out. It uses shea butter and beeswax that'll keep them feeling healthy, and stays on surprisingly well for how easy it is to take off at the end of the day.
This mascara feels like it actually conditions my lashes when I have it on, and never feels crispy or clunky (like some do). Like, have you ever put on mascara and thought, frig, this is why my eyelashes are stunted? Yeah, that does NOT happen with this one, whatsoever. The fact that it's made with beeswax and shea butter makes me feel like I'm giving my lashes a little TLC, even though I'm wearing makeup. It also comes off super easily at night, which is great when I'm feeling lazy and don't want to deal with a full-on scrub down. And the results? The length it gives is no joke! I'm obsessed.
Get it from Sephora Canada for $18+. Available in two sizes.
6. This easy-peasy citrus squeezer that'll literally turn your lemons into lemonade. It'll catch any seeds, and squeeze a variety of sized fruits from limes to oranges. Never drink boring water again!
7. A sticker that's more serious about your hydration than your mom. You can stick it on your phone, laptop, or fave water bottle to remember to hydrate (or die)!
Get it from ChrisCStudio on Etsy for $3.99+. Available in five sizes.
8. A bottle of The Ordinary's hyaluronic acid, that'll make you wonder how you ever lived without it. Just pat a few drops onto your face right before you moisturize and watch your skin gobble up that hydration!
I started using this when I came back to Canada after spending a year in a tropical climate. My face when it felt winter again was, like, WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME. Every time I put moisturizer on it just sat on top of my wildly dry skin, no matter what I tried. And my nose? Flake city. Not cute. After hearing rave reviews about The Ordinary, I went into Deciem and spoke to one of their beauty specialists, who basically threw this bottle at me. They put a drop of hyaluronic acid on my left hand and added moisturizer, then added only moisturizer to my right hand for comparison. One minute later, my left hand had absorbed all of the moisture, and my right had a white cast of cream left on it. I was sold, and now I can't live without it.
Get it from Sephora Canada for $6.80.
9. A SodaStream that'll save you from running to the corner store every time you want a glass of fizzy water. If you prefer bubbly to flat, this will probably help you drink more water throughout the day, too — because it'll just be that much more enjoyable.
10. These super-cute water bottle stickers that'll help you track how much H2O you've consumed. They're perfect for bullet journals or agendas — just colour in one droplet every time you finish a glass.
Get them from OhGoodIdea on Etsy for $4.06+. Available in two sizes.
11. A pack of Pedialyte freeze pops that'll give you a dose of electrolytes in freezie form. It's great for days when you haven't been inspired to drink some plain old H2O, or when that hangover hits in a special way.
Get a pack of 16 on Amazon Canada for $9.77.
12. A Farmacy sheet mask that'll give your face a hyper hit of hydration. It's loaded with coconut water and hyaluronic acid that'll help deliver that moisture ASAP.
Get it on Sephora Canada for $8.
13. A glass water bottle with time markers that'll motivate you to keep sipping, all day long. Reviewers love that it helps them keep track of how much they drink, and find it especially helpful on super-busy days when they tend to neglect the little things (y'know, like drinking, eating, breathing, etc.).
14. A Fresh soy face wash that'll cleanse your skin without stripping it. It'll take off your makeup too, which will save you an extra step in your usual routine.
Get it from Sephora Canada for $20+. Available in three sizes.
15. A glass tumbler that comes with a removable tea infuser that'll help you cut back on disposable tea bags, and inspire you to drink tea, no matter where you are. It comes with a sleeve too, so you won't scorch your hands.
16. A Laneige nighttime lip mask that'll plump and hydrate your lips overnight. Packed with antioxidants and hyaluronic acid, you'll probably end up using it as an extra-strength lip balm during the day too, because it's just so ~luxe~.
Get it from Sephora Canada for $26. Available in eight flavours.
17. This La Croix enamel pin, for die-hard fizzy water drinkers only. Stick it on your jean jacket or backpack to remind yourself (and everyone else) to guzzle that bubbly aqua.

Get it from Simons for $50.
19. A cute shower cap you can use to help your locks get the most out of your hair mask. You can also use it when you're doing overnight hair treatments, to avoid greasing up your pillows and bedsheets.
20. A deep-conditioning hair mask that'll nourish your mane, without weighing it down. Reviewers say this stuff melts into your hair like butter, smells amazing, and that it'll leave your hair noticeably hydrated.
You can also use it in the shower as a super-luxe conditioner.
Get it from Sephora Canada for $37.
21. A cool-mist humidifier that'll make you realize how much worse you felt before you had one. This baby will pump moisture into the air for up to 30 hours per refill, without disturbing you with noise.
22. A bottle of Verb Ghost Oil that'll help you manage your dry ends and frizz. You only need to rub in a drop of this stuff for it to work, so it'll last you a heck of a long time. (Bang for your buck, woo!)
"When I bleached my hair, it was completely busted. It broke every time I brushed it and basically looked like one of those tumbleweeds you see in an old western movie every time I blowdried it — until I found this. It's thicker than most oils (a bit lighter than the consistency of gel) and combs through hair like a dream. It packs in moisture like nobody's business and also smells freaking amazing." —Alice Prendergast
You can use it as a ~luxe~ beard oil, too.
Get it from Sephora Canada for $20.
23. A t-shirt that'll inspire you (and everyone else) to follow two of life's most important rules. It's comfy, cotton, and features a preach-worthy quote from a Queen, so you'll never want to take it off.
Get it from LazyMondayCreations on Etsy for $32.53+. Available in 15 colours and sizes XS—2XL.
24. These silicone popsicle moulds, for when you you'd rather eat than drink. Fill them up with juice, Gatorade, or tea for another way to jazz up that hydration station.
25. A water bottle with an infuser that'll let you sip on fruity water all day long, without inhaling chunks of strawberry.
26. Or a fruit-infusing pitcher, so you can share with a pal or keep it full in the fridge. You can put ice in the infuser too, if you love cold water but hate hitting your teeth against ice cubes every time you take a sip.
27. A Camelbak fanny pack that'll keep your water bottle close on the go. It's great for hikes, jogs, biking around, or strolls that don't require you to lug around a full backpack.
28. And finally, a free app that'll remind you to drink your dang water! It'll calculate how much you should be drinking based on your bod, notify you when it's time for a drink, and create stats based on the info you log.
