The Recommendation

Happy Friday. Here are 15 little treats.

A selection of seven products we recommend in the The Best Self Care Gifts to Buy Yourself guide.
Michael Hession/NYT Wirecutter

There doesn’t need to be any real reason to treat yourself to a little something. But if you insist: Let it be this newsletter, this brand-new gift guide, or just that it’s finally the weekend.

These are all things our experts have found, loved, and then bought for themselves. These pampering presents—including a set of excellent perfumes, a luxurious moisturizing bar, a box of Swedish candies, and a set of soft and flirty pajamas—have made their days a little more luxe, beautiful, and better. Because what’s the use in being a good gift giver if the recipient isn’t sometimes yourself?
