Hello there!
Today I'm going to tell you guys about some of my favorite must-have beauty and wellness products. All of these are pretty affordable and easy to get, and they will change your life.
And FYI, none of this is sponsored content. (Come on y'all, I'm not at that level of blogging yet.) I'm just trying to help you out.
A C U P R E S S U R E M A T
I've been sleeping like a baby lately, which is completely not normal for me. It usually takes me a long time to fall asleep, and when I finally do, I'm a very light sleeper. I wake up and toss and turn throughout the entire night.
NONE OF THAT HAS BEEN HAPPENING LATELY.
I contribute this to the fact that I've been laying on my acupressure mat for 10-30 minutes every night before I go to bed. I originally bought it on a recommendation from my bff Alli Unflat (shoutout Al Pal!!) after she said it helped with stress relief. Which it definitely does! But it will also solve your sleep problems. Restful, restorative sleep is one of the most important parts of a healthy and balanced life, so stop wasting time and buy it here now.

Never underestimate the power of an investment in your skincare. I realized I had been breaking out more than usual lately, so I decided to get my life together and buy a Clarisonic. I saw a difference in my skin after the first use.
First of all, it just feels really good on your face. It removes six times more makeup than washing your face normally. It improves your skin's texture, making it super soft and smooth. Your products will absorb better after use. There are so many benefits to using it. I have the Mia 2, but there are different models to choose from based on your specific needs. They have holiday deals going on right now, so get to it!

This is another wonderful, and less expensive, skincare product! This stuff is amazing. It's hydrating, anti-aging, and it helps improve acne, dark spots, and overall skin tone and texture. I apply it before bed and wake up with a soft, smooth, beautimous face. It's my favorite face oil (compared to Jojoba, Tea Tree, etc). You can find it here.

I was definitely skeptical of this product before I bought it. It's literally something you stick in the freezer and then roll all over your face. But The Skinny Confidential swears by it, so I caved in and bought one.
Let it be known: this is a miracle product. I use it right when I get up in the morning. In addition to waking me up immediately (which is a miracle within itself), it reduces all of my morning swelling and puffiness. It has a bunch of other benefits which you can read more about here, including migraine and hangover relief. (Hangover relief? What? Yeah, you're definitely buying one now.)
Disclaimer: when you first use it, it's going to make an ungodly screeching noise that is sourced from the depths of hell. Don't worry -- apparently that's normal and fixable. Just smear some oil (jojoba, coconut, olive, vegetable, canola, whatever) on it and you'll be good. Buy it here now.

For some reason, Amazon kept targeting me with Himalayan salt lamp ads. It worked, and I bought one on yet another one of my Amazon Prime shopping whims.
Luckily, I ended up loving this thing! It releases negative ions into the air, which neutralize the electromagnetic radiation that we're exposed to all day from our phones, computers, iPads, and TVs. It reduces stress and anxiety, causing you to feel happier and more relaxed, also helping with insomnia. It naturally purifies the air and helps with allergy problems. TBH I don't fully understand the whole negative ions vs. positive ions thing, but I'm really enjoying the benefits from this lamp. And it looks really pretty! Buy one here.

I originally got into the ~essential oil life~ because my mom swears by them. Also because her house smells really good at all times because of it, and also because moms know best. (Which I will finally admit at 23 years old.)
I got the holy grail of essential oil products for my birthday in September, and I've been loving it ever since. In fact, I love it so much that it's getting its own post. So stand by for that, but go ahead and buy one here, like, immediately.
So there you have it -- a few of my favorite things. I hope you guys love these products as much as I do! I sincerely apologize if you just spent way too much money on Amazon, but not really, because you'll be thanking me soon.
