Winter has arrived, and with it comes the perfect opportunity to cozy up and indulge in some much-needed self-care. While we all love pampering ourselves, sometimes it can feel just outside of our budget. It's important to remember that self-care doesn't have to break the bank!
No matter what your budget is, we've got you covered with affordable self-care options ranging from $5 to $50 and will leave you feeling refreshed and rejuvenated this winter.
If you’re really trying to scale back and save, we have a free DIY idea – you can make your own body scrub with ingredients you probably already have lying around the house!
Here’s one of our favorite recipes for an at-home body scrub that will reinvigorate your skin.
What You’ll Need:
Combine these ingredients in a mixing bowl and voila! You have a FREE homemade body scrub that is recommended by Kim Kardashian’s facialist, Lord Gavin McLeod Valentine.
Just hop into the shower and let the steam open up your pores before scrubbing this luxurious body scrub into your skin. Since it’s made of natural ingredients, this scrub is safe for even the most sensitive skin!
Self-care under $5?! If it seems too good to be true, just you wait and see. Bring the spa experience right into the comfort of your home on a cold winter night by pampering yourself with face masks!
Whether you want to increase youthful radiance, combat dehydration, or restore a puffy, tired complexion, we’re convinced there’s a sheet mask for everyone.
At just $5 for a single sheet mask, they cost less than a fancy coffee and offer a quick spa-like experience in the comfort of your home. There are so many amazing masks ranging at different costs, but here are some of our favorites under $5 that will help you survive the winter months.
Changes in the weather can often bring on gnarly breakouts, but The Good Fight Sheet Mask can fight and defend. Infused with willow bark, tea tree, and peppermint oils, this face mask will help combat redness, impurities, and inflammation. In just 10 minutes, this mask will calm irritated, acne-prone skin so you can put your best face forward.
When the winter has done its damage to your skin, the Get Dewy With It Mega Moisture Sheet Mask will definitely save you from horrifyingly dry skin. When your skin feels more like sandpaper than silk, it’s time to bring out the big guns. This moisture-packed mask delivers a hit of hydration in just 10 minutes with ingredients like hyaluronic acid, rose of Jericho, hijiki algae, honey, and prickly pear.
We like to think of sheet masks as the gateway to other amazing self-care masks that can level up your self-care experience. At $4 per pair, these under-eye gels and lip masks a great addition to your at-home self-care.
We all need a little rejuvenation every once in a while, and what better way than with the help of kick-butt ingredients like caffeine, collagen, hyaluronate, and more? The FlashPatch Rejuvenating De-puffing Under-eye Gels are loved by many because they deliver intense hydration and promote collagen production, leaving your skin visibly smoother and more youthful within minutes.
Just a heads up, you may want to purchase more than just one pair of these. The good news is they come in packs!
At only $3 for a single lip gel, FlashPatch® Hydrating Lip Gels are the perfect affordable addition to your low-budget self-care day. Lip masks are an excellent way to restore deep hydration to cracked, dry winter lips. Soften, smooth, and diminish the appearance of fine lines around your lips with our advanced hydrogel patch technology and powerful moisturizing ingredients such as niacinamide, peptides, and green tea extract.
Pro-tip: You can also pair these lip gels with any of our facial sheet masks! Just apply the lip mask and layer your favorite sheet mask on top of it. Same goes for the eye gels!
If you're ready to take your pampering a bit more seriously, we have self-care kits just waiting to rise to the occasion. These options under $25 will take your self-care to the next level and help you truly indulge in your me-time.
These self-care kits are also a great option if you like having multiple masks stocked in your skincare cabinet at a time. Because, let’s face it, one face mask is nice and all, but knowing you have multiple masks lined up reminds you that self-care at home is just minutes away on any given day.

On the final night of this self-care trio, you’ll use the Hydrate FlashMasque to drench your skin with intense moisture courtesy of hyaluronic acid. This mask will help plump up the skin and give it a dewy glow. It’s best used during the hydrating phase of your skin cycle when the skin needs to be replenished with moisture. This kit comes with two Hydrating FlashMasques, so feel free to save your second mask for your next hydration session.

Want to take your self-care to a whole new level? We know exactly how to do it. The Cloud Nine Kit is a head-to-toe self-care experience featuring facial sheet masks, eye gels, and our favorite – hand and feet masks! Say hello to a hydrating, renewing, experience complete with antioxidants and hyaluronic acid, designed to help protect from environmental stressors and delay signs of aging.
Kit Includes:
If you’ve never tried hand and feet masks, you’re truly missing out. This is a pampering experience unlike sheet masks or eye gels. The moment you slip into some moisturizing mittens and skin-softening booties, you’re committed to at least 10 minutes of self-care. In those 10 minutes, you can’t text a friend, switch the laundry from the washer to the dryer, or even go grab a snack. Not only will hand and feet masks leave your skin feeling silky soft, but you’ll also be called to fully relax and pamper yourself like a true VIP, right in your own home. Now that’s self-care!
Having a winter self-care moment can be so fun and relaxing, but it can also remind you to prioritize yourself again (just in case you forgot to!). Sometimes we forget to give ourselves the love we so freely give other people. So if you’re stuck inside with nowhere to go, remember to count your blessings and enjoy the moment that is calling you to pause.
Whether you opt for affordable sheet masks, indulge in a luxurious face mask, or try your hand at a DIY craft, there's a budget-friendly self-care activity for everyone. Remember, self-care isn't a luxury; it's a necessity. Treat yourself well this winter, and enjoy a cozy season filled with self-love and creativity.
