You never realize how something as simple as a good face wash, your toothbrush or even your favorite pair of slippers can make a hospital stay that much more tolerable… and maybe even help to speed up your recovery.
When my husband was hospitalized, I shut down my home office and went to be by his side.
I can’t remember exactly what I was doing before leaving the house that day, but I grabbed an overnight bag, filled it with most of his essentials and (thankfully) remembered a few things for myself… the important things, like deodorant and a few changes of clothes and underwear.
By the third night in the hospital, I looked at my face in the mirror and realized that I needed to have an intervention.
My skin was having a mini meltdown.
At this point, we fully knew that we were in for a longer stay than we initially expected and that meant that I would be going home for more supplies….

One of the first things I did during our time in the hospital was to go back home to grab some of our toiletries and creature comforts with the hopes of making the extended hospital stay a little more tolerable for the both of us.
This oil was one of the items that later made its way to the hospital. Â Eventually, becoming part of my daily facial routine.
It is vegan, cruelty free, and can be used before or after your favorite moisturizer or facial serum.
It has a neutral scent and works well for any gender.
More details from the manufacturer:
A nourishing elixir blended from 100% natural organic ingredients, Laila London has formulated her FACE OIL to effectively reverse the effects of damage, replenish nutrients and renew a youthful radiance.
- Naturally containing a unique blend of rich oleic acid and linoleic acid, Marula oil has deeply moisturizing qualities while anti-inflammatory chamomile reduces redness.
- Baobab oil improves skin tone and elasticity while minimizing scarring.
- Jojoba and carefully selected essential oils, typically used for anti-aging also has potent healing properties that repair damaged tissue.

The overall combined result of repeated use (along with a proper skin care routine) is a visibly smoother, nourished, and brighter complexion.
