A head wrap that (literally) ices out migraines
Amazon -
TheraICE Soothing Migraine Relief Cap
When a migraine hits, an ice pack and a dark room are probably first on your to-do list. This headache hat has both steps covered with its soft gel material that can be stored in the freezer for immediate cooling relief, and its hands-free design that you can wear over your eyes or slightly lifted around your forehead when you’re ready for some screen time again. The headache hat can also be warmed up in the microwave if you’re dealing with a sinus headache, and the slip-on design doesn’t use any Velcro, so you don’t have to worry about it getting caught in your hair.
Cooling globes that take down puffiness
Amazon -
pfefe Cryo Sticks (2-Pack)
Store these face massaging ice globes in your freezer for a quick pick-me-up on mornings where you’re feeling extra tired, battling allergies, or experiencing some inflammation. The stainless steel globes were shaped to contour to your face to better help with depuffing and lowering the heat in the skin in just a few minutes. Each globe is filled with a cooling liquid to hold onto that icy temperature, and they feature rubber holders to keep the cold on your face (and not your fingers).
Purple shampoo foam for keeping blonde hair icy & bright
Amazon -
K18 TripleBright Oxidation Defense Purple Shampoo
Purple shampoo for combatting brassy tones in blonde hair is nothing new, but this fluffy foam offers a unique way to freshen up your color. The violet pigment neutralizes brassiness, but the lightweight foam actually focuses on removing the metals and minerals that cause hair to turn brassy in the first place. While the shampoo foam was designed to sit for several minutes before rinsing it out, its precision technology ensures it won’t stain or overtone your hair.
A peel-off lip liner that leaves behind a long-lasting stain
Amazon -
Sacheu Peel Off Lip Stain & Liner
This lip liner comes in a range of soft neutrals that give it more versatility. Whether you opt to wear it on its own or as a base for your favorite gloss, the lip liner has a unique, temporary tattoo-like application process.

Self-heating masks that soothe & hydrate tired eyes
Amazon -
ProCIV Steam Eye Masks for Dry Eyes (16-Pack)
Whether your eyes are red and puffy from allergies or they’re feeling the fatigue from too many hours at your laptop, these steam eye masks can help. The disposable masks start to warm up as soon as you open them, reaching a not-too-hot temperature that lasts for a full 30-minute treatment. Because they’re disposable, the masks are just as convenient to use while traveling as they are at home, and each mask is fitted with elastic ear hooks to keep them in place.
Dermaplaning spray that highlights your facial hair
Amazon -
SKNBODY Dermaplaning Hair Identifier Spray with Razors
One way to get smoother skin and a more even base for your makeup is by removing your peach fuzz using a technique known as dermaplaning. The at-home version is essentially just shaving your face, and this dermaplaning kit comes with everything you need to get the job done. In addition to your mini razors, the set includes a shaving spray that not only soothes and moisturizes skin, but also shows up with a bright white color that highlights peach fuzz to ensure you don’t miss a single hair.
A foot roller to massage away sore arches

Exfoliating pads that use red wine to promote clearer, brighter skin
Amazon -
DERMALOGY by NEOGENLAB Bio-Peel Gauze Peeling Pads (30-Pack)
If a glass of wine and an extended skin care routine sounds like your idea of a good time, these exfoliating pads give you a little bit of both. Each gauze pad is saturated in a red wine solution that includes fruit extracts and alpha-hydroxy acids to buff away dead skin cells, as well resveratrol, an antioxidant found in wine that can help stimulate collagen and reduce hyperpigmentation when applied topically. While your glass of wine might be part of your evening routine, these exfoliating pads should be used less frequently — between two and three times per week.
Drops that make your eyes instantly brighter
Amazon -
Lumify Redness Reliever Eye Drops
These redness relieving eye drops aren’t just for battling allergies. Makeup artists frequently turn to the over-the-counter drops to make models and actors look more bright-eyed — even without makeup. One drop eliminates redness, brightening the whites of your eyes for up to eight hours.
An at-home acupressure set for easing back & neck tension
Amazon -
ProsourceFit Acupressure Mat & Pillow Set
Amazon reviewers largely agree that this acupressure mat isn’t for the faint of heart. But if you can get past the initial discomfort, more than 30,000 five-star ratings confirm that it helps with relieving muscle tension and back aches. Thousands of plastic spikes are behind that not-so-cozy feeling when you first lie down on the mat, but they also target pressure points along the body and stimulate blood circulation to potentially help with pain and stress relief.
A pack of foot masks that peel away dead skin
Amazon -
Plantifique Foot Peeling Mask (4-Pack)
You don’t need to book in at the salon for pedicure-worthy feet when you have these at-home masks. Though the peeling effect that the exfoliating-rich formula activates is undeniably kind of gross, the masks really work, according to the 30,000-plus five-star ratings on Amazon. Just be sure to give them plenty of time to slough away all that dry skin before opting for open-toe shoes, as the foot masks take about two weeks to give you the full, callus-free results.
A hair mask that draws its inspiration (& hero ingredients) from mayonnaise
Amazon -
TONYMOLY Haeyo Mayo Hair Conditioner Mask
This hair mask looks more like a condiment, and that’s precisely what the K-beauty brand behind the formula intended. The three-minute mask helps with restoring moisture and shine to dry hair, using a mayo-inspired combination of egg yolk extract and vinegar, as well as macadamia seed oil and shea butter. Don’t let the look of it freak you out, though: The mask still smells sweet, thanks to vanilla and macadamia nut fragrance notes.
A purple toothpaste that actually brightens your smile
Amazon -
Crest 3D White Brilliance Luminous Purple Whitening Toothpaste (3-Pack)
Purple is probably not the color you’re going for when it comes to your smile, but this purple toothpaste actually works to brighten teeth by canceling out the yellow tones caused by staining. While the color-correcting effect works right away, the toothpaste helps to whiten and protect your teeth in the long run by polishing away surface stains and strengthening tooth enamel with fluoride. You can use it morning and night, and the toothpaste still has a classic mint flavor even though its color is less conventional.
A cushion foundation that delivers a smooth, satiny finish (even when you’re on the go)
Amazon -
TIRTIR Mask Fit Red Cushion Foundation SPF 40
This cushion compact is everything you could ever want in a makeup base. Coupling full-coverage color with good-for-skin ingredients like hyaluronic acid and niacinamide, the foundation comes in 40 shades that blend into the skin seamlessly with a not too matte, not too dewy finish. To top it all off, it comes in a travel-friendly compact, complete with a mirror and puff applicator.
Tiny teeth wipes for removing stains on the go
Amazon -
UNIQUE2U Teeth Cleaning Wipes (100-Pack)
Carrying a toothbrush in your bag isn’t exactly practical, but these tiny, mint-flavored wipes make it easy to freshen breath on the go. The individually packaged teeth wipes were designed to fit right over your finger, helping to prevent stains from your morning coffee or post-work wine from setting in. And they come in a pack of 100, so you’ll be set for ages.
A friction-reducing balm that prevents chafing
Amazon -
Megababe Anti-Chafe Stick
Thighs might be the most common area where chafing occurs, but this beauty award-winning balm can be applied anywhere that you experience irritation from skin rubbing against skin or clothing. The swipe-on formula creates a non-sticky barrier wherever you apply it, eliminating friction and nourishing skin at the same time with ingredients like chamomile extract, grapeseed oil, and aloe vera.
An ice roller for soothing tired, puffy skin
Amazon -
Fronnor Ice Roller for Face
Gliding this ice roller over your face can help with reducing puffiness and temporarily making your pores look smaller (thanks to the colder temperature causing blood vessels to constrict). It feels amazing on tired skin after a late night or little sleep; simply keep it in the freezer so you always have it on hand.
A green face primer that helps camouflage unwanted redness
Amazon -
Elizabeth Mott Thank Me Later Color Correcting Face Primer
This green face primer uses the color-correcting technique to help neutralize redness — whether from a skin condition like rosacea or the occasional breakout — before you even apply your foundation. Green pigment camouflages unwanted red tones, while centella asiatica and ceramides further help to calm irritation. At its core, it’s still a makeup primer that works to create a smoother base to keep your makeup in place for longer.
A roll-on foot treatment that exfoliates & moisturizes
Amazon -
QJCWXIAOX Foot Care Moisturizer Stick
To keep feet smooth in between pedicures and foot peeling masks (or in place of the latter if the idea of visibly shedding skin freaks you out), have this foot care stick on hand. The travel-friendly formula works to smooth rough feet by exfoliating dead skin and delivering moisture with ingredients like urea, salicylic acid, coconut oil, and aloe vera. Because of its roll-on applicator and more gradual results, the foot care stick is also less messy than peeling masks and greasy lotions.
An eye mask that heats up & massages, too
Amazon -
LifePro Portable Eye Massager with Heat & Vibration
If you take your self-care seriously, this eye mask gives you a heated massage with the press of a button. Offering four soothing massage modes, the rechargeable device can be used to help with migraines, eye fatigue, and general relaxation. Plus, it’s Bluetooth compatible, so you can listen to your favorite music or catch up on a podcast while you kick back.
A double-sided massager for relieving hand hand & finger pain
Amazon -
cotsoco 2-in-1 Finger Massage Roller
Given the amount of time we all spend clicking away on our phones and typing at our laptops, our hands could use a rest. This manual massage tool features two different types of rollers (one on each end) to target every part of your hands, from pinky finger to palm. Amazon reviewers share that the massager is great for helping with general stiffness and cramping, as well as more painful conditions like arthritis.
A conditioning hair mask that lets you touch up (or change) your color at home
Amazon -
oVertone Semi Permanent Hair Color Conditioner
For those who aren’t afraid of a DIY situation, this hair mask is part conditioner, part color treatment. Rather than mess with the health of your hair, the mask simply deposits color for a temporary effect that slowly washes out over the course of two to three weeks. Available in more than two dozen neutral and vibrant hues, the color-depositing mask is packed with nourishing ingredients like shea butter, argan oil, and hydrolyzed pea protein.
A lamp that guides you through a meditation sesh
Amazon -
Mindsight Pebble Breathing Buddha Light
More than just some funky décor, this bedside lamp serves as a wellness tool for guided breathwork. Color-changing lights are used as prompts for inhaling, holding, and exhaling your breath to potentially help with managing stress and anxiety. When you just need a regular lamp, there’s a traditional night-light mode, and it’s made with a squishy silicone, so you don’t have to worry about it breaking if you accidentally knock it over.
Disposable gloves that leave hands soft & smooth
Amazon -
Aveeno Skin Relief Repairing Hand Mask
Even sensitive skin types can use these hand masks from Aveeno. The “masks” (which are really like gloves) are pre-saturated with a fragrance-free lotion that soothes and moisturizes with glycerin, petrolatum, shea butter, and the brand’s signature blend of oat flour, oat extract, and oat oil. Expect softer hands in just 10 minutes.
A glass foot file that gently smooths away rough calluses
Amazon -
Bare August Glass Foot File
A glass foot file may sound scary, but hear us out. An etched glass surface like the one this foot file uses is actually less likely to tear up your feet than traditional scrapers because it has a finer texture that exfoliates more gently. Glass files are easier to clean, too, and this bright pink option comes with its own storage case for easy travel.
A clarifying shampoo in solid bar form
Amazon -
Ethique Clarifying Shampoo Bar
Making more environmentally sound choices doesn’t have to mean compromising on efficacy. Case in point, this clarifying shampoo bar that’s entirely plastic-free, but still lathers up nicely and leaves hair clean. Formulated to remove buildup and excess oil without drying out your hair, the shampoo bar pairs ginseng root extract and lactic acid with castor seed oil and cocoa seed butter. Available in nearly a dozen different formulas, the shampoo bar will also save you money, as each concentrated bar gives you the equivalent product of three liquid shampoo bottles.
A cordless water flosser that’s less than $40
Amazon -
AquaSonic Icon Water Flosser
This water flosser comes at a more affordable price tag than most, but it gives you three cleaning modes that use a stream of water to remove plaque from between your teeth.

Whole body deodorant that keeps you smelling fresh wherever you spray it
Amazon -
Dove Coconut Vanilla Whole Body Deodorant Spray
Let’s face facts: Your underarms aren’t the only area of your body where sweat and odor-causing bacteria can pop up. This whole body deodorant was formulated to keep you smelling fresh from head to toe with a coconut fragrance and odor-neutralizing complex that works for up to 72 hours. The spray-on deodorant even helps to nourish skin with ingredients like sunflower seed oil, niacinamide, and vitamin E.

Individually packaged, the wipes can help first thing in the morning if you’re dealing with discomfort from allergies or at the end of the day to remove makeup. The gentle wipes use hyaluronic acid and tea tree oil to ease dryness and irritation, and they don’t even require any rinsing (although you obviously can cleanse your face after if you prefer).
A firming cream with a built-in gua sha tool
Amazon -
ANUA Collagen Retinol Refining Gua Sha Cream
A gua sha tool needs a little bit of glide as you swipe it over your face to promote lymphatic drainage and a temporary sculpting effect. And that’s what makes this two-in-one cream so genius. Each tube features a metal-lined gua sha roller at the end, which dispenses a peptide- and collagen-infused moisturizer to deliver firming skin care benefits as it allows the massage tool to move more easily.
A body mist that moisturizes like a lotion
Amazon -
Beekman 1802 Milk Shake Hydrating Body Mist
If you’re not into slathering on a body lotion every day, this mist-on body moisturizer will keep your skin smooth without any mess. Instead of waiting for a thick cream to absorb, the lightweight formula sets in almost as quickly as you spray it. It nourishes skin for up to eight hours with ingredients like jojoba seed oil, squalane, and goat milk. The body mist comes in a range of sweet scents, so it can double as your fragrance, but it’s also available in a fragrance-free option for those with more sensitive skin.
An arnica roller for post-workout recovery & pain relief
Amazon -

Topical arnica has been used for pain relief for centuries, but the plant-based ingredient is also a favorite among athletes. This arnica gel comes with a convenient roll-on applicator, letting you target muscle soreness and stiffness without any mess. Plus, the cooling rollerball and mechanical massage it provides can further help with reducing pain and swelling.
A roll-on stick for easy, fuss-free hair removal

Packaged like a deodorant, the cream can be swiped right onto legs, underarms, or the bikini area. In under 10 minutes, it will melt away hair, helping to moisturize skin at the same time with coconut oil and vitamin E. Though the hair removal cream was formulated with sensitive skin types in mind, you’ll still want to do a patch test first just to be sure.
A mist-on jelly serum that plumps with salmon-derived PDRN & collagen
Amazon -
medicube Jelly Mist Serum with Pink PDRN Collagen
You can use this serum mist in two ways to give your skin a glow: When sprayed close up, the jelly texture gives you a more concentrated hit of a collagen serum to plump up skin and prep for the rest of your skin care routine. But you can also spritz the serum on like you would any face mist, letting it refresh skin without messing with your makeup.
A brow pen that delivers a microbladed effect
Amazon -
Maybelline 2-in-1 Dual-Ended Brow Makeup Pen
This brow pen draws its inspiration from the semi-permanent technique known as microblading to create the illusion of fuller brows. But instead of the teeny tiny needles used in microblading, this user-friendly tool features a similarly shaped pen with three precise tips that give you those same hair-like strokes. The opposite side of the pen also holds a tinted fiber gel spoolie to add some volume, blend in the product, and set your brows all at once.
Body wipes that cool your skin down on hot days
Amazon -
Oars + Alps Cooling Face & Body Wipes (14-Pack)

To help you feel a little less icky, toss a few of these individually wrapped cleansing wipes in your bag. Suitable for both the face and body, the cleansing wipes have an exfoliating texture on one side to thoroughly remove dirt and sweat, and a smooth side that cools and invigorates skin with aloe vera, cucumber extract, caffeine, and menthol.

A lip marker that develops into a long-lasting stain
Amazon -
e.l.f. Main Stain Lip Marker
Long-lasting lip color is hard to come by, but this lip stain gives you marker-like staying power that’s buildable in intensity. The application method is also unique, as the felt tip pen has a spatula-like shape with thin sides that are meant for lining, as well as flatter sides to let you quickly fill in the rest of your lips.
Silicone tape that helps heal scars faster
Amazon -
NUVADERMIS Silicone Scar Tape
This roll of silicone scar tape can be trimmed to cover scars of any size during the healing process. Thought to help with preventing and fading marks over time by creating a protective barrier over the skin and locking in moisture, silicone patches have also become popular in skin care for working in the same way to reduce the appearance of unwanted fine lines. As with treating scars, the silicone roll gives you more versatility than a silicone patch when targeting fine lines, as you can cut it into various shapes that suit the forehead, eye area, and other parts of your face.
A tanning oil that simultaneously protects & moisturizes your skin
Amazon -
Vacation Chardonnay Oil SPF 30 & Air Freshener Bundle
There’s no such thing as a safe tan from the sun, but tanning oils of the past are especially harmful as they accelerate the tanning process (and therefore, increase your exposure to damaging UV rays). This sunscreen oil mitigates some of the damage with its SPF 30 formula. Lightweight and moisturizing with grapeseed, jojoba, and marula oils, the sunscreen oil aims to leave skin soft without a slick layer of grease.
Anti-itch patches that keep you from scratching mosquito bites
Amazon -
Quitch Bug Bite Itch Relief Patch (27-Pack)
These clear stickers look like pimple patches, but they were actually designed to help with healing bug bites and preventing you from scratching.

But the stickers, which come in several sizes, also contain aloe vera and witch hazel to reduce inflammation and itching.
A lash comb that removes mascara clumps
Amazon -
MSQ Eyelash Comb
Lashes that really pop without the help of extensions or falsies usually require multiple coats of mascara. But the more you layer on your mascara, the more clumps you end up with. This lash comb uses stainless steel tines to help separate your lashes and break up clumps and flakes for a more fanned out, feathery finish.
A multipurpose clay mask with more than 75,000 five-star ratings on Amazon
Amazon -
Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay
Bentonite clay is the hero ingredient (and the only ingredient!) in this Amazon-favorite mask, which currently has more than 75,000 five-star ratings. There’s a slight DIY component to it, as you’ll need to mix the powder clay with equal parts water or apple cider vinegar, but once it’s smoothed over your face, the mask only needs about five minutes to draw out excess oil and dead skin. Apart from a face mask, the clay can also be used for body wraps, clay baths, and foot soaks.
A pain-relieving cream for sore muscles
Amazon -
Advil Targeted Relief Pain Relieving Cream
When you’re dealing with muscle soreness, but you’re looking for an alternative to oral pain relievers, give this Advil cream a try. The topical cream lets you target exactly where you’re feeling discomfort, whether it’s a sore back or an arthritis flare up in your hands. Ingredients like menthol and capsaicin start to ease pain right away and keep working for up to eight hours.
Tiny towels to blot away post-workout sweat
Amazon -
DRYKI Sweat Absorbing Handkerchiefs (5-Pack)
You may work up a sweat every time you hit the gym, but that doesn’t mean you always have time to hop in the shower right after. That’s where these sweat towels come in. The pocket-sized towels are made from a microfiber blend that absorbs more moisture and dries down faster than the usual cotton towels. They’re also antimicrobial and machine washable, so you can store them in your gym bag and use them on repeat.
A nail strengthening treatment with a jelly-like finish
Amazon -
LONDONTOWN Sheer Strength Nail Blush
Polishes that are sheer enough to let your natural nail show through, but still heavy on the glossy finish, are having a moment. Officially dubbed the jelly manicure, the trend can also be beneficial to the health of your nails. This strengthening formula pairs a multi-polymer technology to harden nails with the brand’s proprietary complex that nourishes with ingredients like garlic bulb extract, chamomile flower extract, and safflower seed oil. Best of all, it doesn’t require a base or top coat.
A hands-free heat wrap for relieving back pain
Amazon -
ThermaCare Advanced Back & Hip Heat Wraps (5-Pack)
This heat wrap was designed to treat back pain when you’re on the go. The hands-free design lets you secure the heat therapy wrap with an adjustable Velcro strap that can be worn under your clothing. The fragrance-free wrap stays heated to about 104 degrees Fahrenheit for eight hours to soothe muscle soreness and aches along the lower back and hip area.
A face & body mist that soothes irritation & destroys acne-causing bacteria

There’s not much this humble hypochlorous acid spray can’t do. With anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, hypochlorous acid has the potential to help with alleviating skin conditions like eczema, rosacea, and acne.

A set of cooling face & eye masks that help soothe & depuff
Amazon -
Medi Grade Cooling Face Mask (6 Pieces)
There are four different types of ice packs in this face mask set, giving you a more customizable way to treat your skin.

Or, treat smaller areas like the under eyes with the gel pads that come in two different shapes.
A face mask that uses caviar & salmon PDRN to give you a glow while you sleep
Amazon -
BIODANCE Caviar PDRN Face Mask
You can put this sheet mask on before bed and wake up to smoother, more radiant skin without any extra work. The unusual delivery method is paired with some equally odd ingredients that include caviar extract and PDRN (aka fragments of DNA extract from salmon sperm). This fishy duo not only delivers moisture to the skin, but they both boost collagen production and assist with skin barrier repair, too.
Spa-scented shower steamers that can help open up your sinuses
Amazon -
The Herbal Zen Shower Steamers (10-Pack)
Whether you don’t have time for a lengthy soak or you’re just not a fan of baths in general, you can still bring a spa-like quality to your shower with these shower steamers. Each tablet in the 10-piece set is fragranced with a blend of peppermint and eucalyptus essential oils that were selected with aromatherapy in mind.

An easy-to-use mist that can help promote better sleep
Amazon -
ASUTRA Magnesium Oil Spray
Looking for a new addition to your wind-down routine? This magnesium spray aims to promote a more restful sleep with just a few spritzes.

Gel inserts that make your shoes more comfortable
Amazon -
Dr. Scholl’s Massaging Gel Insoles

The inserts come in a one-size-fits-all (one for men and one for women), but each flexible insert was designed to be trimmed to your custom size.
A nylon shower towel that eliminates the need for exfoliating scrubs
Amazon -
GOSHI Exfoliating Shower Towel

A gummy supplement that supports a healthy gut
Amazon -
Olly Probiotic + Prebiotic Gummies (30 Count)
Growing research on the importance of your gut microbiome has made gut health one of the most trending topics in wellness. One way that’s thought to balance the bacteria in your gut is by adding probiotics and prebiotics into your routine. This peach-flavored gummy supplement is an easy (and tasty) way to get a bit of both, though it’s always recommended that you check with your doctor first since dietary supplements aren’t tested by the FDA.
A silicone scrubber that massages the scalp as it removes buildup
Amazon -
Sndyi Scalp Massager Shampoo Brush, Scalp Scrubber with Soft Silicone Bristles, Scalp Exfoliator for Dandruff Removal, Scalp Massager for Hair Growth, Wet Dry Hair Brush for Scalp Care, Green
If the scalp massage at the shampoo bowl is your favorite part about going to the salon, this silicone scrubber will be a great addition to your at-home hair routine. Not only does it just feel relaxing, but massaging your scalp helps to remove dandruff, product buildup, and other debris while also increasing blood circulation to potentially support hair growth. You can use the scalp massager on wet or dry hair depending on your preference, just be sure you’re using gentle, circular motions to avoid overdoing it.
A fruit-flavored electrolyte powder to boost hydration
Amazon -
LMNT Zero Sugar Electrolyte Packets (18-Pack)

A massage tool for lymphatic drainage on your body
Amazon -
Komogir Lymphatic Drainage Massage Tool

A four-point massage tool you can take anywhere — & that offers superior relief
Amazon -
Melonsun Palm Massage Tool
This bright blue massager might just be the weirdest-looking product on the list, but it’s also quite simple to use. Battery-free and portable, the massager is built with a palm-grip base and four points that are meant to deliver deep tissue relief without any extra effort. One thing worth noting, if you plan to use the massager on yourself, Amazon reviewers point out that the tool was designed for people who are right-handed.

You can hand wash the socks and reuse them multiple times, but they come in multiple colors and designs that you may want to stock up on.
A cuticle moisturizer made with calming essential oils
Amazon -
