You know what 2019 calls for? Slowing the f*ck down, friends! We're talking more at-home spa days, more cozy nights in, more self-care, and a whole lot more relaxation. Let's make a "more me time" resolution for the new year . . . and let's maybe not break the bank while we do it, eh?
We've gathered some of our favorite wellness and self-care products that'll either help you turn your bathroom into a Burke Williams, help you unwind at the end of the day, or give you a daily dose of calm wherever you may be. And — drumroll — they're all under $15. For real. We're going to de-stress all day, every day this year, because overwhelming anxiety is so 2018, and we don't have time for it. Who's with us?
