1. A set of reviewer-loved bath bombs you'll never wanna bathe without after trying them. These luxurious-smelling bombs also make great gifts!
2. Or some shower steamers — they're essentially bath bombs for showers in case you aren't a bath person! Just place one in the corner of your shower to release calming fragrances while you unwind after a long day.
3. A Mount Lai gua sha facial lifting tool that's just oh so relaxing to use. It can help reduce puffiness and tension on your face, leaving it feeling smooth and radiant — which is why users *still* swear by this ancient Chinese skincare tool that you may have recently seen trending on TikTok. Grab a jade facial roller, too, if you wanna further upgrade your routine!
4. Some flat, wireless sleep headphones, because trying to sleep or even just relax with regular earbuds in is all fun and games until you roll over on your side. With these, you can stream audio via Bluetooth, block out external sound, and listen to your fave songs, podcasts, or meditation sounds in comfort. They're also great for wearing on planes or during workouts if your earbuds are always falling out!
5. A jar of clear putty that you can stretch, sculpt, bounce, tear, pop, and more if you need something safe to fidget with while feeling stressed or restless.
6. A popular Bio-Oil that uses vitamins A and E, chamomile, and lavender to soothe cracked and dry skin, fade new *and* old scars, and moisturize without clogging up your pores. Reviewers who have been washing their hands a lot and ending up with painful dry skin say this really helps! No wonder it has over 67,000 5-star ratings.
Here's why BuzzFeed editor Emma Lord loves this:
"FWIW, regarding scars, this stuff really works. I had thyroid surgery a few years ago, and Bio-Oil took me from looking like I'd stumbled out of the Red Wedding to virtually no detectable scar within a few months. All I did was apply it once in the morning and once at night."
Promising review: "This stuff is awesome. I get dry patches on my face in the winter, and since using this, no more dry patches! I have pretty sensitive skin, and I can't use most creamy moisturizers because I'll break out. Bio-Oil adds the moisture I need without breaking me out. It also helps to reduce old acne scars and evens out my skin tone. As an added benefit, the smell is light and clean!." —Lydia
Get it from Amazon for $8.92+ (available in three sizes).
7. A shampoo scalp brush to give you a relaxing lil' massage every time you wash your hair, while also deep-cleaning and exfoliating your scalp. Some reviewers even claim it helps with psoriasis, dandruff, and scalp tenderness!
Here's what BuzzFeed editor Emma Lord has to say about it:
"I recently started using one of these, and WOWZA, it really helps you get extra mileage out of your shampoo. I have a whole lot of hair on my head, so sometimes it's a struggle to feel that I've soaped up my whole scalp thoroughly, but this was a very effective way to spread out the suds and really get them to the roots. I was worried it might tangle in my hair, but it was totally fine on that front too. I've noticed that my hair has been a little less greasy at the roots since I started using it. And I'm echoing a ton of reviewers here when I say it just feels reeeeeally, really nice."
Promising review: "I’ve suffered from dry skin and a dry scalp ever since I turned 30. The only thing that helps me is exfoliating. I was initially concerned that the product would be too rough and damage my sensitive scalp, or too soft and ineffective. However, this brush is perfect for me. It does not tangle my long hair, and it is easy to use and just firm enough to get the job done. My scalp no longer itches, and the icky buildup is gone. I can’t believe something so affordable has made such a difference in the health of my scalp. I’ve used expensive shampoos and conditioners to no end, with barely a difference. I wish I'd discovered this product much sooner!" —AH
