Love it or hate it, Valentine’s Day might be a great opportunity for some self-love.
If self-care involves a cup of Joe made with love and little effort, Consumer Reports has you covered! The Keurig K-Mini Plus is convenient to use, and comes in fun colors that will brighten your morning even before you’ve had that first sip of caffeine. While testers found it isn’t especially fast, it does make a remarkably consistent cup of coffee.
And no matter the season, loving and protecting your skin from the sun is a must. With La Roche-Posay, one of CR’s top-rated sunscreens, it can also feel luxurious.
And speaking of luxury, this splurge might be the beauty tool to rule them all: the Dyson Supersonic.
“Dyson Supersonic certainly lives up to its status as a luxury product. Our testers gave it top marks when it came to drying speed, and it’s also one of the quietest models we’ve tested. I personally love it, and it’s a favorite of our editors as well,” Consumer Reports Editor Anna Kocharian said.
And let the self-care continue with some healthy snacking!
You can upgrade movie night with this Dash popcorn maker. Consumer Reports found it delivered a lighter, toastier flavor in only two minutes.
With popcorn in hand, you’ll be ready to snuggle-up under a 15-pound weighted throw by Gravity blanket. Consumer Reports liked its super soft “micro-plush” duvet cover in fun colors like plum, teal and gold.
“If you’re looking for a little luxury, a silk eye mask is the way to do it. It’s going to help you catch some Z’s on a plane or at home,” Kocharian said.
Or for some Zen – consider giving yourself a subscription to a meditation app like Calm, Pzizz and headspace.
