30 Products to De-Stress Like a Wellness Expert

If you're looking to cut back on your alcohol intake but still like to enjoy a fun beverage, you need this Kin Spritz ($30 for eight) in your life. It's relaxing and yummy; what could be better? To get specific, it's formulated with things like adaptogens, nootropics, and botanics like Rhodiola Rosea, 5-HTP, and Gaba to elevate your mood, give you a burst of energy, and regulate your stress.

I've tried more face masks than I care to admit, and I keep coming back to the Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask ($48) whenever my skin needs some TLC. It's very thick and moisturizing but not too intense for my sensitive, combination skin. I immediately take a big exhale once it's on, and it makes my Sunday nights a little less scary.

If you have shoulder pain that never seems to go away, like I do, you need these Kieba Massage Lacrosse Balls For Myofascial Release ($10, originally $13). I used them once in a Pilates class, and they got out a knot that must've been there for over a year. Now, I can't imagine life without them; think of it as a much more targeted foam roller.

CBD is a cool thing to try if you want to destress. If you're of age (21+), I recommend these Lord Jones Old Fashioned CBD Gumdrops ($35). They're delicious, and I take one before I go to bed, so that I don't stay up for hours watching Friends.

Ok, hear me out on this one. I get headaches, and I was putting ice packs on my face that kept falling off. This Gel Eye Mask With Eye Holes ($10) is genius because I don't have to worry about that, and it makes me feel like a superhero.

Gua sha is a facial sculpting technique that isn't always the most comfortable experience, but I find it really relaxing when I practice it. Plus, I love the way my face looks afterward. This Kora Organics Rose Quartz Heart Facial Gua Sha ($58) is so cute, and so useful.

You've likely seen a gummy vitamin, but now there's probiotic soft chews, and we're so on board. To support your digestive health and promote healthy gut flora, take an O Positiv FLO-Biotics Probiotic Soft Chew ($30) each day. They taste like candy!

You've seen this The Five Minute Journal: A Happier You in 5 Minutes a Day ($29) everywhere, but it really does work. It's got five prompts, three for the morning and two for the evening, and it's an easy way to get into the habit of journaling. There's something so satisfying about starting and ending your day with gratitude and reflection.

Another thing I like to do to de-stress? Read. When I'm curled up with a candle, my water bottle, and a great book, I'm impossibly happy. Taylor Jenkins Reid's "Malibu Rising" ($17, originally $28) is next on my list.

You know what's stressful? Deodorants with aluminum and other harsh chemicals. You know what else is stressful? Body odor. This Corpus Natural Deodorant ($24) is the only natural deodorant I've been able to wear all day long without needing to reapply. It comes in the loveliest rose scent, as well as a sandalwood option and a citrus, fresh scent called No. Green.

This Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides Supplement ($22) is a great addition to my morning matcha latte. It doesn't taste like anything, makes it a bit more frothy, which I love, and helps with the health of my hair, skin, and nails. The added protein doesn't hurt either.

In my opinion, everything starts with sleep, which is why I like this Pinch Provisions Digital Detox Kit ($26). I've learned through experience that watching TV or being on my phone right before bed severely hinders my quality of sleep, and this kit is the perfect complement to my willpower. It includes earplugs, a sleep mask, alarm clock, phone sleeve, a timer, detox tips, an infinity fidget cube, and an activity dice.

My day starts when I take my first sip of iced matcha. This Pique Tea Sun Goddess Matcha ($58) is really high quality, and when it comes to matcha, taste is so important. Matcha is a green tea powder that gets whisked and then poured generally over water or milk, and it notably contains L-theanine, which promotes calm and balance. When I drink matcha, I don't get the same jittery feeling I do with coffee.

POPSUGAR's latest book, You've Got This! ($10, originally $13) by Jessica MacLeish, is the perfect gift to give to any young person struggling as they embark on a new school year. The book is filled with writing prompts, inspirational quotes, and mindfulness techniques to help the reader stay focused and channel their creativity in positive ways.

When I'm stressed, I usually get a headache, and have an urge to retie my ponytail. These Slip Small Slipsilk Scrunchies ($39) are beloved because they keep your hair back without producing that dreaded bend, and without giving you a headache. It's a win all around.

If you don't have a weighted blanket, this is the year to invest. We like the look and feel of this Bearaby Cotton Napper ($249), and you can customize the weight. It's cotton, so it's not unseasonably warm, and perfect for a cozy morning or night.

Aside from being a brilliant title, "How to Be Vegan and Keep Your Friends" ($13, originally $20) is something I can use to help ease my anxieties about eating plant-based in a group setting. It also makes for a funny gift. Your friends might even want to try some of the recipes.

A key component of wellness for me is proper hydration, and that's why I want to treat myself to this Larq Self Cleaning Water Bottle ($95). I do enough dishes every single day, and the fact that I don't have to worry about cleaning this bottle is so awesome. It's BPA free, and easy to tote around all day.

When I'm stressed, I get knots in my back, as so many of us do. Instead of living in pain, I use the Theragun Elite Percussive Therapy Device ($350, originally $400). It's intense, but it really does work like you've just gotten a deep tissue massage.

This might sound insane to some people, but here's the truth: I didn't own sweatpants before 2020. I never saw the need for clothes that I wouldn't wear out of the house; I'd either put on leggings or pajama pants. However, I've learned recently that it is really nice to be in loose, comfortable clothing. Shocking, I know. These Alo Muse Sweatpants ($98) do the job and still make me feel slightly pulled together.

My face gets puffy easily, and this The Skinny Confidential Hot Mess Ice Roller ($69) is a lifesaver. I keep it in the freezer and roll it over my face. It's even helped me with headaches.

For me, lighting a candle means I'm home for a while. It's kind of my switch into relaxation mode, so I'll be stocking up on this delightful Maison Louis Marie Candle No.4 Bois De Balincourt ($36). It smells like sandalwood, but it's not overpowering.

This C & The Moon Malibu Made Body Scrub ($64) is a real treat. It smells like a cupcake, and leaves your skin softer than you could possibly imagine, even without moisturizer. I use it once or twice a week, and it's one of my favorite shower or bathtime products.

If you're reading this, you probably need to foam roll. Yes, it might be painful in the moment, but the results are well worth it. We like this Love Sweat Fitness 2-in-1 Foam Roller ($35).

Since we're all staring at a screen all day long, we need blue light glasses. When I don't wear these Felix Gray Hamilton Glasses ($110), I can feel the headache come on. Plus, the frames are so cute!

One of the most important cornerstones of wellness is staying hydrated, and while I love my collagen lattes and kombuchas, I need to get more regular water in my life. Enter the Prodyne FI-3 Fruit Infusion Flavor Pitcher ($20, originally $25), which infuses my water with a little bit of fruit, jazzing it up a bit. My favorite combos are raspberry pineapple and cucumber mint, but the world's your oyster when it comes to these.

As a self-proclaimed lip balm expert, there is nothing more annoying than when a product doesn't do it's job. The Lord Jones Whole Plant Formula CBD Lip Balm ($19) is actually moisturizing without being overly goopy. In other words, it's a near perfect product.

I need to get some kind of movement in every day for my sanity, and I can do just about anything on a yoga mat. This Alo Warrior Mat ($100) is a really sturdy option, where you won't slip out of downward dog. It's a wellness essential for me.

My brother gave me these Ouai Chill Pills Bath Bombs ($30) and wow, they're great. I'm lucky enough to have a bathtub, and it's a really nice treat to soak after a long day. It smells like jasmine and rose, which is so lovely.

Put this yummy Yogi Tea Honey Lavender Stress Relief Tea ($4) in a cute mug for a calming night in. It's delicious and soothing. What more could you ask for?
