Self-care means different things to different people. However, self-care products don’t have to be 24k gold eye masks or $12 green juices.
Here are 10 self-care products under $10.
1. Candles from Mainstays
The 3 wick candles from Mainstays are potent and affordable. The illumination is soothing and stress-reducing while the lavender scent calms the nervous system.
2. Rose Water Facial Toner from Trader Joe’s
This rose water facial toner is perfect to use after cleansing, for refreshing throughout the day, and/or after using an astringent. The subtle rose scent is pleasant and it leaves your skin feeling rejuvenated.
3. Passion Herbal Tea from Tazo
This blend of “hibiscus, orange peel, rose hips, and passion fruit” is delectable hot or cold. Being caffeine free, this is wonderful in the morning, afternoon, and evening.
4. Women’s (or Men’s) VitaCraves Multivitamin Gummies from One A Day
With 50% of your daily Vitamin A and C, 200% of your daily Vitamin D, and other essential nutrients, these are a yummy and easy way to invest in your wellbeing.
5. The One-Minute Gratitude Journal by Brenda Nathan
I have been using this journal for over a year and absolutely adore it. It embodies my personal mantra of “start small”. Taking a minute (or less) to scribble down some things you are grateful for initiates an attitude of gratitude.
6. Monthly Membership to Spotify
In addition to the unlimited access to music, I have found Spotify to be an incredible resource for self-help and personal development podcasts.
7. Witch Hazel from Thayer’s
Witch hazel yields many benefits aside from being a natural, homeopathic astringent. It can help with reducing the appearance of scars, relieving inflammation, wards off infection, and can be used as a makeup remover!
8. Detox or “Spa” Water
By slicing some fresh lemons and cucumbers, you can make a fabulous detox or “spa” water. Lemon and cucumber water is known to keep you hydrated, reduce bloating, lower blood pressure, and support healthy skin.
9. Silk Sleep Mask from Amazon
There are a plethora of affordable silk slip masks from Amazon. They help block light and signal to your brain that it is time for rest. They are also known to support the delicate skin around the eyes, a win-win!
10. Insight Timer from the App Store
This free, yes, FREE app is home to the largest collection of guided meditations and meditative soundtracks. Whether you’re walking to class, driving home from a stressful day at work, or wanting a restful night’s sleep, Insight Timer has a little bit of everything, for everyone.
