Just 8 Things You 100% Deserve To Get Yourself Right Now...

If I were to ask you how you're doing, I reckon there'd be an 87 per cent chance you'd say... fine.

Your adjective of choice might be a little more explicit, which is fair considering half of the country is in some form of lockdown at any given time.

Sure, the fact we’re all shopping for beauty products and homewares when literally no one can see us or our homes (except when you’re forced to have your camera on during work calls) isn't all that rational.

But if anything, it speaks to the need to just feel good in any way we can right now.

Even if that way is receiving a sext from Australia Post saying your order is on its way...

On that note, keep scrolling for a beauty editor edit of eight cosy, comforting things to add to cart.

1. Estée Lauder ANR Powerfoil Masks.

ANR sheet mask ANR sheet mask

What:

Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Concentrated Recovery Powerfoil Mask

Why you deserve it: Just because.

OK, but seriously...

As far as sheet masks go, these are God tier.

From the juicy, serumy packets and the subtle fresh scent to the premium foil mask material that looks expensive, chucking one of these on your face is a guaranteed good time.

Even better than how they look and feel is the way the brand's signature serum deeply hydrates and plumps the skin. Especially great for dull, dehydrated, weary skin.

2. CIRCA Wick Trimmer.

What: CIRCA Wick Trimmer

Why you deserve it: Because life's too short for sooty candles.

OK, but seriously...

Is a wick trimmer an essential item? Absolutely not. After all, it's essentially a very long pair of scissors.

But if you're burning a lot of candles and are sick of looking at them all blackened and sooty, add a wick trimmer to cart to keep your wicks at the perfect length.

Bonus: Doing this keeps your candle vessels pretty so you can reuse them as home decor/storage.

3. LightStim LED Light Therapy.

You can learn more about at-home LED tools in our YouTube video below.

What: LightStim For Wrinkles: LED Light Therapy

Why you deserve it: One word... chimples.

OK, but seriously...

I wrote a manifesto about the pimple products I'm using to help with the mask-ne chimples that keep sprouting from my chin (chin pimples, geddit?), but our resident dermal therapist Yads Cauchi also highly recommends using an at-home LED device like this one.

This LightStim uses anti-inflammatory red LED wavelengths to help soothe and heal the skin, and reduce any inflammation. Plus, it encourages collagen and elastin production to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time with consistent use.

To help get rid of my pimples, I've been holding it on my chin while watching Love Island UK. Would recommend.

4. Glasshouse Fragrances Movie Night Candle.

What: Glasshouse Fragrances Movie Night Candle

Why you deserve it: Why the bloody hell not?

OK, but seriously...

Can't go to the cinema? I'd argue burning this candle while watching telly on the couch is the next best thing.

It genuinely smells like fresh popcorn, but with a subtle caramel twist. This candle has a super sweet scent, so something to keep in mind.

Interestingly, anecdotal feedback on the limited edition fragrance is that men especially love it... do with that info what you will.

5. Shhh Silk Silk Pillowcase.

What: Shhh Silk Silk Pillowcase Queen Size

Why you deserve it: You're doing amazing, sweetie.

OK, but seriously...

Not only does sleeping on a silk pillowcase make you feel like a millionaire, but it's also really good for your hair and skin.

If you find your hair looks frizzy when you wake up in the mornings - even after freshly washing it the night before - swap out your usual pillowcase for one of these.

Hot tip: Choosing a darker colour will keep the case looking fresher for longer. I'm eyeing off the charcoal shade...

6. L'Occitane Almond Shower Oil.

What: L'Occitane Almond Shower Oil

Why you deserve it: Absolutely no reason, other than you're a star.

OK, but seriously...

You can read more about why shower oils are superior here, but I'm yet to meet someone who took a chance on this very lush one and didn't love it.

Slather this luscious, luxuriously thick golden oil all over your bod in the shower or add a slurp to your bath. It'll leave your skin feeling like satin.

7. Grown Alchemist Hand Care Kit.

What: Grown Alchemist Hand Care Kit 500ml

Why you deserve it: Haven't our hands been through enough?!

OK, but seriously...

Just because many of us can't have friends over, doesn't mean you can't use up the good hand soap and hand cream on yourself!

Popping this Grown Alchemist hand care set on your vanity will take you back to the good old days when you could go to chic restaurants with even chicer bathrooms.

Plus, when you're washing your hands 1,345 a day, might as well swap in the fancy stuff, even if only for the heavenly sweet orange, cedarwood and sage scent.

And when you run out, you can either repurchase OR re-fill with another soap of your choice. Clever.

8. SALT BY HENDRIX Dream Body Oil.

What: SALT BY HENDRIX Dream Body Oil 100ml

Why you deserve it: You're worth it.

OK, but seriously...

Can a steamy bath infused with nourishing oils and an intoxicatingly sleepy scent of neroli, rose and coconut fix everything? No.

But damn it feels good. And sometimes, that's enough.
