11 Unique Wellness Products You Didn’t Know You Needed

As we all know, taking care of our well-being is vital to living a healthy, happy life. But finding a balance between work and rest isn’t always easy.

Good thing there are some helpful wellness products that I absolutely love. Each of these items are ones that I’ve been using for months, if not longer, and can say they’re honestly life-changing. So much so, that I can’t believe I survived so long without them before!

There’s a sea of wellness products out there in the market today, and while that’s great, it can also be pretty overwhelming. The common theme between everything on this list is that I feel they’re worth the price, are functional, and easy to use.

From a sunrise alarm clock to start your day peacefully to a skincare filter that removes irritants in water to better your skin, read on for the 11 best wellness products to level up your self-care routine.

Hatch — Restore 2
Bedside Light, Sound Machine & Sunrise Alarm Clock

This Hatch Restore 2 is the ultimate antidote to the dreaded buzzing, ringing or beeping sound of a classic alarm clock. Instead, choose between calm tunes like Meditative Flute and Lofi Beats. The volume gradually gets turned up while a natural light turns on to wake you up in a serene, not startled, mode.

What’s more, “The Restore 2 isn’t just an alarm clock, it’s a device that can truly help to teach and implement better habits for people who struggle with falling or staying asleep,” the Hatch team shared with Style Meets Story. “There is a feature called ‘Cue to Rest’ that’s specifically designed to remind you when it’s time to start getting in to a ‘bedtime’ mindset.”

This dreamy machine pairs with an app, giving you a library of options to use it as a white noise machine, meditation guide, music player, and more — some, but not all, require a subscription to access. I also use it as a lamp and love that there are 18 light color options.

On — Cloudmonster Sneakers

I’ve had my eye on these On Cloudmonster sneakers for a while and am so glad I got them. Besides the cool name and giant soles, it feels like I’m literally walking on a cloud. I run outside in New York City and the roads can be bumpy and hard, so these make the journey much more comfy. 

It felt funny when I first put them on (I was instantly taller!) and the cushions are super springy. But after jogging and then running in them, I’ve adjusted to the feeling. There’s also an effortless momentum thanks to the forward-rolling effect of the soles. Oh, and the material is temperature-resistant to keep your feet cool.

hai — Smart Showerhead (WaterSense)

My showers have forever been changed — for the better — because of this hai smart showerhead. What I love most is how the water pressure feels (there are two settings: fine mist or steady stream). 

Plus, the easy-to-install stainless-steel showerhead saves energy and 30% more water. Pair it with the hai app to see your environmental impact over time. There are also customizable LED lights that keep you posted when the water is warm or if you have reached your target water limit. 

 P.S. You can add a fuse and drop in these vitamin-rich aromatherapeutic shower infusions for a spa-like feel.

Filterbaby — Skincare Filter 2.0

This viral Filterbaby skincare filter (that attaches to your bathroom faucet) is truly a wellness product I didn’t know I needed until I attended the brand’s launch event. There, I learned that it reduces most of the bad stuff in water — not only 99.99% of chlorine, but also 99.99% of chloramine, and 99.99% of contaminants as small as 0.1 microns.

Filterbaby is clinically tested to improve skin after two weeks, making it softer and more hydrated. It also reduces sensitivity and inflammation, unclogs pores, helps with acne, and promotes skin longevity. If we typically filter the water we drink, it’s also so important to filter the water we use to clean our face and brush our teeth with!

Wander Beauty — Baggage Claim Eye Masks 

Not only does it look nice to put on these gold under-eye masks, but there are so many benefits to doing so. Leaving them on for just 10-15 minutes helps to improve your skin’s tone and texture. I always look so much more awake after — plus, my skin feels more hydrated from the hyaluronic acid and amino acids.
 
Wander Beauty thoughtfully designed these masks with three layers. The top gold foil helps retain heat and prevents the serum below from evaporating. The middle layer prevents the mask from slipping, and the third layer (a cellulose fiber) condenses and delivers the key ingredients so you get the most out of the product. And it also comes in rose gold!

6/11

Foreo — UFO 3

I cannot say more good things about the Foreo UFO 3, a smart facial treatment device that makes you look and feel better in just 2 minutes. It also increases moisture by 126%! Just apply one of Foreo’s activated masks (they look like mini circular sheet masks) into the device, select your treatment, and massage it on your face in a circular motion. 

There are cooling cryotherapy (to help firm and depuff skin) and warming thermotherapy settings (to help the active ingredients from the mask absorb deep into the skin).

Intelligent Change — The Five Minute Journal

Now, let’s talk about one of the best wellness products, in my opinion, for mental health. Throughout the years, I’ve gone through several of these journals. The prompts are impactful and really thought-provoking.

As the name implies, it only takes five minutes or so to write in it every morning and night. The key is to be consistent. Writing about things you’re grateful for (be specific!) is like magic and may just help you live a more fulfilled life. 

8/11

Cozy Earth — Bamboo Sheet Set

A good night’s sleep is so important to your well-being. The first time I used these luxe sheets and pillowcases by Cozy Earth, I was happily surprised by how extremely soft and smooth they felt. It’s like sleeping on silk but easier to take care of since it’s made with premium viscose from bamboo fabric. 

These are machine-washable (and get softer with every wash). Plus, it’s temperature-regulating so it never feels too hot and is perfect to use year-round. Honestly, I sleep better every night because of these comfy sheets.

9/11

Hey Dewy — Wellness Humidifier

From Hey Dewy, the brand that created the popular portable humidifier, comes their new larger-sized version. This one is more powerful, misting up to 500 square feet.

Using a humidifier benefits your skin by keeping it hydrated. Damp skin acts like a sponge and quickly absorbs the products and ingredients you put on it. Turning this on during your morning and nighttime skincare routines can help you get the most out of your serums and creams. 

This one is super quiet and doubles as a soft light that gives off a calming ambiance. You can also leave it on throughout the day — just let it do its thing while you enjoy the benefits of better air quality.

10/11

VOESH — Heel Repair Duo

Skincare for the face and body are so common but let’s also talk more about our heels, specifically. This part of our feet does so much work when we walk, and deserves some TLC, too. The VOESH solemate heel repair balm makes it easy to swipe on a blend of vegan squalene, organic olive oil, wild mint oil, macadamia and jojoba oil. This helps lock in moisture and shield your skin from environmental damage. 

After, slip into the moisturizing heel socks (that are washable and reusable up to 50 times). These feature a gel lining infused with jojoba oil and organic olive oil. In less than half an hour, your skin will feel noticeably softer. 

11/11

Bed of Nails — Bon Acupressure Mat & Pillow

Bed of Nails: the name sounds scary but, trust me, this wellness product was made to feel relaxing. Made with non-toxic plastic nails, the acupressure mat and pillow help relieve muscle aches, back and neck pain, headaches, stress, insomnia, and improve circulation. 

Just make sure to wear long sleeves and pants if you prefer it to be not as intense. I usually lay on this for about 20 minutes while doing morning meditation. 

If you’re going to invest in something, let it be wellness products to improve your lifestyle and mood. After all, self-care is not a luxury; it’s a necessity! So, treat yourself to these finds, and enjoy the benefits.
