Self Care For College Students: Dorm Wellness Must-Haves

College is an exciting time, but it's not without its stresses. Self care for college students is very important for helping you relax after a long day of classes, homework and studying. At Pottery Barn Teen, we carry a variety of dorm wellness and beauty essentials that will encourage you to unwind in comfort and in style. Take some time for yourself in the evenings before sinking into a plush and welcoming bed with our selection of self-care must-haves.

Sumptuous Bedding Basics

Good self care for college students starts with a good night's sleep, so make sure you have the bedding basics you need to catch some z's. Start with quality pillow inserts and a duvet insert like those from our "Fluffiest-Ever" bedding collection. Crafted from supersoft cotton and a plush down alternative, these inserts will have you drifting off to sleep in no time. Using mattress pads and toppers is also a great way to enhance the comfort of your bed and create a sleeping surface that suits your sleep style.

Supersoft Organic Sheet Sets

A comfortable sleep also requires soft and breathable sheets. Put together a bed that you'll love sinking into every night with our incredibly soft organic cotton sheet sets. Each set comes with a flat sheet, a fitted sheet and one or more pillowcases depending on the set size. Clean and simple designs and soothing colors will help you wind down at the end of the day, and GOTS certification ensures a high-quality organic product. Choose from our 144-, 260- and 400-thread count sets to maximize your comfort.

Luxurious Bath Essentials

A refreshing shower or a relaxing bath can be an important part of a self-care routine. Extend the experience even further by wrapping yourself in super plush and luxurious bath towels after stepping out. Our 100% organic Hydrocotton® bath towels are ultra-absorbent and sumptuously soft against the skin. Our Quick-Dry Organic Collection also includes Hydrocotton® bath robes and bath wraps designed with your comfort and coziness in mind.

Perfect Pampering Accessories

Help yourself drift off to sleep after getting tucked into bed with a mulberry silk eye mask that is gentle on the skin. Woven of genuine silk, our elegant eye masks are available in chic hues and have an attractive shine. When you get up the next morning, grab a silk scrunchie that is also gentle on your hair and that will ensure a good hair day every time. Before heading out the door, don't forget one of our super stylish and extra comfortable face masks as well.

Dorm Room Upgrades

There are a couple more things you can do to transform your dorm room into a self-care space that provides a peaceful, quiet and relaxing environment. One way to do that is with a pair of blackout and sound-dampening curtains that let you study at any time of day and sleep in after the sun rises. Since you spend a lot of time in your dorm room, an air purifier can also help you breathe easier.

Pottery Barn Teen is happy to assist with your self-care routine. We offer all the essentials of self care for college students so that you can have an easier time winding down and preparing for a restful sleep. It's time to start pampering yourself the way you deserve.
