@TheGibson i'm going to guess that being a technomancer you probably already know about spudgers, which i think everyone should have, like, fifty of, because they're just so fucking useful
most of my recent under-50 fuck-everyone-needs-this purchases are skincare related i admit, but honestly, a nice chapstick for overnight, some good handcream and foot cream, and nail oil can be both relatively cheap and really nice little splurges that make you feel better.
@TheGibson so in that vein:
-laneige's overnight lip sleeping mask is fucking great and actually sinks in to your lips while you sleep and is phenomenal.
-the elizavecca milky piggy carbonated mask is a nice fun time!
-a bottle of jojoba oil and some empty oil brush pens so you can make your own nail and cuticle oil pens to use. i didn't think it would help me tons until it DID and my hands are so much happier
-The Creme Shop x Sanrio handcreams are at CVS and are pretty darn excellent!
@TheGibson the stupidest most bougie shit i've bought lately in that vein that was still totally worth it:
pillow spray.
just like... stuff you spritz on your bed before you go to sleep. i don't really believe in all the aromatherapy woo-woo, but having a clear scent cue for my brain to go "ah yes, this is the sleepy place" has been great.
also worth considering:
-a nice lumbar support pillow for chairs
-new bedsheets that are jersey knit
-one of those mermaid tail blankets
