6. Treat Yourself To New Luxury Towels

Nothing beats a good shower, but it’s not always easy finding the best towels.

Even better, they get softer and softer with every wash, and are made of long-staple cotton that’s Oeko-Tex certified (which means they’re more environmentally-friendly than your old towels).
