don't even challenge me on these
You haven't reached peak adulthood until you find yourself constantly restocking on Tylenol once it runs out/expires
Tylenol - Target
I find this stronger than Tyl, and usually combine the two when I experience headaches/period pains
Ibuprofen : Pain & Fever Treatments - Target
Huge fan of the actual Band-Aid brand. It's sticky!!
Band-Aid - Target
The berry flavor is the best IMO.

I have no idea if this is doing anything TBH.
Daily Love® Multivitamin Multivitamins for Women - Love Wellness
This is THE magic pill if you suffer from constipation.
Sparkle Fiber® - Fiber Supplement | Love Wellness
Not sure if this actually works but I've been eating this consistently since Nov '24 and I have yet to get sick KNOCK ON WOOD.
Nature Made Elderberry with Vitamin C and Zinc for Immune ... - Target
Another one of the pills where I'm not entirely sure they work but I take it anyway bc I bought it lol
Bye Bye Bloat® - Bloating Relief Pills | Love Wellness
I think this one works better than the Bye Bye Bloat

Not sure if this is placebo but I think I am more calm when I take this?!?
BioSeries™ Technology | Stress Relief - Ritual
down there health
i get a lot of yeast infections, so all of this is essential.
I use this when I feel a yeast infection starting - super easy to swallow as it's in capsule form
Good Girl Probiotics - Probiotics For Vaginal Health - Love Wellness
This is painful to swallow since it's tablet form so I don't take it as often as their probiotic.
Healthy V® Vitamin - Candida Overgrowth Balance - Love Wellness
This is a consistent repurchase — I swear everything stops getting irritated once I use it.
Boric Acid Suppositories - pH-D Feminine Health
No, you don't need soap tailored for your intimates. A sensitive skin unscented bar soap is SO much better and cheaper.
Sensitive Skin Beauty Bar | Dove
anti-bacterial
i have germaphobia
If you're not wiping your phone down before bed, WHAT ARE YOU EVEN DOING. I've been using these wipes for as long as I can remember.
Sanitizing Alcohol Wipes - The Honest Company
I've been loving sanitizing sprays over gels. I always keep one in my bag.
Hand Sanitizer Spray | Honest Co.
menstruation
Any vibrating heating pad will do. Mr. Beans got this for me as a gift and I use it every time I'm on my period. This paired with tyl+ibu helps relieve 60% of the pain
Thermie
I use this every single day but if you are too lazy to, at least do it during your period. Pls.
Upside Down Peri Bottle – Frida | The fuss stops here.
I get my pads from this brand bc they're more susty, but I'm considering switching to one made in the US

Melatonin 1 mg, 60 capsules - Life Extension
mr beans doesn't get too affected by the 1mg one so he takes this one and he knocks out in 20 min
Melatonin Fast Dissolve Strawberry Tablets - 5mg
because i dry/cough in my sleep (and its been waking mr beans up), i've been applying this over my mouth. it surprisingly works!
Nexcare™ Strong Hold Pain-Free Removal Tape SST-1, 1 in x ...
its bizarre how much this has helped my nighttime coughing - wish they had more fun pillowcase covers!!
at first it doesn't seem like its doing anything but once you check the filter you'll be horrified at how much dust is in your home even if you vacuum regularly
Air Purifiers
on my wishlist!!!! this would be great for those who cough due to dryness. i've been wanting one but they're expensive!!!
Essential Oil Diffusers - Vitruvi
