My wellness routine is sacred to me. Working out, taking my supplements, and having self-care evenings (complete with a multi-step skincare routine and journaling session) bring me so much inner peace. The importance of creating daily habits that support your health and well-being can't be overstated. Over the years, I've identified some must-have products for my routine, and they're more affordable than you might think. Some of my essentials are a cushioned yoga mat (I found one for $25), an affordable moisturizer that performs like a high-end one, a viral hair oil, and a celebrity-loved collagen supplement. Luckily, CVS has all these items and more. Keep scrolling to shop my essentials. (Psst: They're all under $38.)
