Rose Quartz For Your Face
Turn your home into an impromptu day spa with the help of a facial roller, an ancient Chinese beauty tool that aims to detoxify the skin, promote lymphatic drainage and reduce puffiness and under-eye circles. Some people also find it helps relax the muscles in the jaw. $59 from The Facialist.

Sleep Well 
Research shows that lavender reduces anxiety and promotes sleep, and this spray from Salt by Hendrix can be used on both skin and hair spritz lightly on yourself or your pillow for instant calm. $18 from Tonic Room.
