With the holidays fast approaching, you might be wondering what to get your stressed-out and anxiety-riddled friends and family members. Or hey, maybe you’re looking for some pre-holiday self-care gifts for yourself. We don’t blame you — everyone needs a little treat this time of year! Self-care might seem like a luxury, because self-care gifts sometimes come with a higher price tag, but we’re here to tell you that these gifts don’t have to be expensive to be thoughtful. And just because self-care has “self” in it, doesn’t mean that it’s selfish to pamper yourself or encourage your friends to do the same! Giving someone a gift you know they’ll enjoy, and that might make their life a little better and more comfortable — or indulging in the same for yourself — is a pretty great feeling. 

Unfortunately, many of us aren’t able to whisk our friends and family away to an exotic spa vacation to unwind. But we’ll tell you a secret: the best self-care gifts out there are affordable because the last thing little luxuries should do is stress you out when the credit card bill comes in. We’re talking $50 or less, to be exact, and that’s totally worth it if you ask us. 

Here is a list of the best self-care gifts under $50 that you can give at any time of the year. Yes, that means birthdays, the holidays, when someone isn’t feeling well — any time they can use a little extra TLC. The only problem? These self-care presents are so affordable you might wind up keeping them for yourself. Consider yourself warned! From the chicest period products to some luxe skin-care items, your life is about to get a whole lot more chill. Of course, that’s totally fine and you deserve it — so maybe just order a few to begin with.
