I Asked 9 AB Staffers to Share Their Top ‘Treat Yourself’ Products for a Cosy Night In
Sadaf Razi is Adore Beauty's Senior Beauty Editor.
She's a former fashion editor (who worked at various glossy mags) and stylist-turned digital beauty and lifestyle writer. She has been in the lifestyle/media industry for over 10 years and her work has also been featured on international covers like Elle France and Vanity Fair Mexico.
Some of her fave Adore Beauty products include Cicaplast B5, CeraVe Cleansing Oil and Lancôme Renergie Triple Serum.
Heads up, this article includes a sexual wellness product from our Adore Beauty sex category. Now, onwards!
We're calling it. Regular cosy nights in should be mandatory.
Thankfully, the joy of missing out (or JOMO, as the kids say) has never been more socially acceptable.
Giving yourself a pamper session with beauty products you wouldn't usually have the time to indulge in is a necessary wellness practice.
There's so much more to self care than bubble baths and sheet masks, but partaking in a hair mask, lighting your favourite candle or coddling your skin in a lush shower oil is the perfect way to unwind.
Working in beauty, the Adore Beauty team are lucky enough to discover a whole range of feel-good products from every category.
So in the spirit of staying home, I asked a few of my colleagues to share their top ‘treat yo self’ and self pampering ideas/products for a cosy night in.
There’s some reaaaaalll winners in here. I might even add some of these to cart myself...
1. Sadaf, Content Producer.
I'll be the first cab off the rank - L'Occitane Almond Shower Oil 500ml is a must-have in my bougie shower routine.
I mean, is it really a self pampering session without this cult shower oil?
It didn't take me long to be seduced by the shower oil (have you smelled this stuff?!), and it feels so silky and lovely on the skin.
Also, a cosy night in isn’t complete without diving into a face mask.
Aspect Probiotic Mask 118ml is one of my faves, I especially love this in winter when my skin needs a little nourishment boost.
And lastly, my aunty recently purchased the Glasshouse Fragrances KYOTO IN BLOOM 760g Soy Candle with my staff discount.
It made me feel calm and cosy when I was in her home, so I'm getting one for myself!

2. Amy, Senior Editor.
Amy's words to live by are 'if in doubt, wash your hair'.
This is true for when you're sick or feeling meh, but especially when you want to feel cosy and fresh for a night in.
"I love a super bougie hair wash with all the steps and my exxier products. Even if i'm not going anywhere, nothing feels better than super clean, soft hair."
These are the exact products Amy uses:
3. Chelsea, Head of Brand Marketing.
Yep, we've got another vote for face masks!
Specifically, the best-selling Aspect probiotic mask.
Chelsea loves a double mask moment. She'll start with the Aspect Fruit Enzyme Mask 50g to gently exfoliate, then follow with Aspect Probiotic Mask 118mlfor that bouncy, dewy glow.

4. Mette, Senior Content Creator.
Googling 'how to treat yourself to a spa day at home'?
Mette's self pampering session might be up your alley...
Hailing from Finland, Mette loves going to sauna. So she tries to recreate that vibe at home.
She loves the Cosmedix Micro Defense Microbiome Sheet Mask 5 pack for thirsty winter skin.
Dr. Bronner's Castile Bar Soap - Lavender is also her pick for a hot, relaxing, aromatherapy shower.

5. Aimee, Inbound Team Leader.
Want pamper night ideas that truly say 'self pampering session'? Take a leaf from Aimee's book...
"A cosy night in for me starts with a bougie bubble bath like the L'Occitane Lavande Lavender Foaming Bath paired with a calming candle."
"Glasshouse Fragrances THE HAMPTONS 380g Soy Candle is a favourite, and then I top it off with tunes and a cold glass of wine. Bliss."

6. Ira, Email Marketing Coordinator.
Searching things to do on a pamper night that include body care?
Why not try body brushing?
Side note, you can watch this video below to learn how to dry body brush.
Ira loves taking the time to do a full do-everything shower or bath.
"When I get a chance to give my skin some extra TLC, I like to take the Black Chicken Remedies Garshana Dry Body Brush after a hot shower for a good old dry brushing session."
"I'll also massage on the Aesop Rind Concentrate Body Balm 500ml - I love its delicious citrus smell! Nothing makes me feel warmer inside and out."

7. Maddy, Brand Partnerships Coordinator.
Another vote for L'Occitane products!
Just quietly, Maddy has not stopped talking about the L'Occitane Cocon De Serenite Relaxing Pillow Mist 100ml and how bloody good it is.
"This pillow mist is my bougie nighttime must-have."
"A few spritzes of this across my pillows helps me relax while I snuggle in with my book (or my boyfriend). I actually love it so much, I bought a seperate bottle to keep at his place."
8. Rhiannon, eCommerce Merchandise & SEO Coordinator.
Want something a little different (but necessary) to add to your self pamper ideas list
Rhiannon has the perfect thing for an at-home pamper night.
"After a long, hard day, my favourite way to relax is to draw a bath."
"I'll light some candles, whip out my Vush Muse Rabbit Vibrator or Vush Stimulation Your Majesty 2 and chuck on a sultry song."
Now that's what I call self-care.
9. Hannah, Beauty IQ Uncensored Podcast Host.
Hannah has spoken about her love of Jo Loves fragrances many times.
She especially loves the Jo Loves Fig Trees A Home Candle 185g- she burnt thorugh her first one in just a few weeks.
Hannah describes this candle as "addictive yet calming; like a big hug, perfectly capturing the scent of freshly picked figs."
A powerful scent that fills the entire room, the notes of cassis and amber each add sweetness and warmth while the cedar adds a woody touch.
Is this the most affordable candle? No. But let's agree to light the good candle, we deserve it!
And that wraps up this cosy night in essentials list!
I hope this article gave you some motivation to treat yourself at home with some great pamper night products.
Whether it's 20 minutes in the bath with the door shut (because that's all the kids will allow), a sheet mask on the couch or a weekend staycation, remember...
Pampering is a form of self-care! You're worth it.
