Aroma360: Ever walk into a hotel or a spa and it just smells so amazing? Take the Ritz Carlton for example. Love how that hotel smells so luxe? Grab the Escapade scent and bring that aroma home.

Weighted blankets for relaxation
Weighted blanket: Obsessed with this weighted blanket. This is machine washable and it’s cooling which is super helpful because some people can get hot with weighted blankets. This is great for those who have anxiety or those who just need that extra support
