O’Keeffe’s Healthy Feet Cream.
This stuff is magical. I don’t know how it works so well, but I PROMISE that you’ll see a difference after ONE use. Full disclosure, I have terribly dry feet and they get cracked and ugly and I’m actually really self conscious about them. This stuff is the only thing to have ever helped heal my skin. 10/10 recommend. https://amzn.to/39QDmFc
2. Peppermint Organic Lip Balm.
I love a great chapstick. This one is light, effective, and not greasy at all. I’ve gone through plenty of chapsticks in my day and this one has consistently performed well. https://amzn.to/3cUVVd5
3. Coochy Cream.
Yep, I’m going there! This is one of my favorite ways to show myself that I’m special from top to tail. I was first introduced to this when I was on a girls’ trip to Vegas so you know this is super valid! This is a conditioner as well as a shave cream for your more sensitive areas. You will not get bumps or razor burn, your hair will be softer, and it smells soooo good! https://amzn.to/3uwwcNZ
4. Batiste Dry Shampoo.
I’ve tried lots of different kinds of dry shampoo and this one is by far my favorite. It doesn’t build up, leave a gross residue, or dry out my scalp. I genuinely feel like my hair is cleaner and it looks cleaner which is the whole point, right? I love the tropical scented one but I know their other scents are great, too! https://amzn.to/3wAEJkQ
5. Lavender Eye Pillow.
How extra does this sound? An eye pillow? But yes, believe me, this thing Is amazing. The flaxseed gives it a really soothing weight on your eyes and the lavender is so relaxing. If you’ve ever been to a yoga studio, they probably had you use this at the end of the class. It’s always my favorite part! I also keep mine in the freezer and it’s the first thing I do when either I or my husband have headaches. It feel so good! https://amzn.to/39Q30tx
