“I’ve been on the hunt for a sweatpants upgrade for the days when I just can’t bear to put on real clothes, and these grey ones from Amazon have been an instant fave. They’re nicer than my grubby college sweatpants but still super cozy and don’t break the bank.” —Clara F., 25
12 Self-Care Products on Amazon That People Swear By
Happy Prime Day, folks.We love a holiday that doesn’t come with family tension, triggering diet talk, and awkward chit chat with our second cousin once removed. Enter Prime Day, which Amazon is treating us to a second time this year on October 10th and 11th. While we’re not into buying things just for the sake of it (we’ve had enough therapy to know that won’t fill the void), we do love a good deal when it’s for a product that really benefits our daily routine in some way. To help you sort through the noise (read: pages and pages of deals), we asked our community to share the best self-care products they buy on Amazon, below.

“As a big runner, I’m always dealing with mysterious aches and pains so this mini Theragun has been a lifesaver. Using it even for just a few minutes makes my sore muscles feel better, and since it’s small enough, I can take it with me whenever I travel.” —Carl L., 34

“I miss the luxury of taking baths but my small New York apartment only has a shower. My friend recently turned me on to these ‘shower steamers’ though and I’m obsessed—I use them at night when I have more time to really indulge in a long shower and they make my not-fancy bathroom feel like a spa.” —Kerry W., 31

Laneige Lip Glowy Balm
$14.40“I bought this lip balm after seeing countless recommendations from celebrities and influencers and I have to say, it’s really that good. It gives your lips a nice, moisturized glow without being too sticky and the Berry ‘flavor’ smells delicious.” —Brianna D., 25

“This facial massage tool is completely worth the price. I use it after a long day at work when I seem to hold a lot of tension in my face and jaw, and on mornings when I haven’t slept well and need to ‘de-puff’ my face. It feels really good and I find the ritual relaxing.” —Leia R., 30

“I’m glad breaking out is more accepted these days—like why should we be made to feel bad for something out of our control? But sometimes I really just want my pimples to peace out. I love these pimple patches from Hero Cosmetics, not only do they work really well but they also help conceal some of the angry redness that my cystic pimples bring.” —Delaney V., 28
-
“Yes, I consider my daily cup or two of coffee to be self-care, because I’d probably be a wreck without it. I love my Keurig K-Elite machine because you can make hot or iced coffee in under a minute, and I’m no longer spending $5 a day on coffee (thank god).” —Alicia M., 26

“Doing yoga three times a week is my self-care non-negotiable. Even when everything else goes out the door, I make sure to prioritize that. Having this Gaiam mat at home makes it super easy for me to get a workout in even if I can’t make it to a class.” —Olivia P., 32

“In the fall and winter, I really need to step up my skincare routine because my skin is super dry. Once I’m done with serum and moisturizer, I seal everything off with this nourishing Vitamin E oil which helps to keep the usual flakiness at bay.” —Taylor F., 29
-
“If you’re looking for a fragrance-free makeup remover that doesn’t feel like it’s stripping your skin off, this is IT. I’ve been using it for years and it’s so much better for my sensitive skin and also works much faster than the average makeup wipe, so it’s a win-win.” —Jessica S., 32

“Scent has always encouraged me to take a minute for myself and fully settle into my environment. So on nights when I have trouble winding down from the day (you could say I’ve been burning the candle at both ends lately), I love using this candle to help ease into relaxation. This brand, Boy Smells, has a variety of interesting scents that create a peaceful vibe, but the LES scent will always have my heart.” —Claudia L., 27

“A cup of frothy coffee or a matcha latte adds a little something fancy to my morning ritual and helps me start the day on a more positive note. This handheld electric frother makes a barista-esque drink in my kitchen, so I can take a few extra minutes each morning to sip, reflect, and caffeinate. Pinkies up!” —Jordan F., 33
