When you're stressed, your body releases cortisol, a stress hormone that (among other things) makes it harder for your body to hang onto water. Meaning: your skin dries out. Origins Calm to Your Senses Lavender and Vanilla Body Souffle combines a hydrating blend of olive oil, grapeseed oil and apricot kernel oil with mind-calming lavender and vanilla for a product that eases the outward symptoms of stress as well as anxiety.

"Chamomile is well known for its calming and soothing qualities," Howard says. "I love using [Simple Foaming Cleanser] twice a day because it helps me focus my mind on my senses." The best part? Not only is chamomile soothing for your nerves, it also soothes skin, reduces redness and gently cleanses.

Another scent Wechsler recommends for stress relief is rose. Ren Moroccan Rose Otto Body Wash has a light, delicate fragrance that's perfect for unwinding in your hot (but not too hot) shower after a particularly stressful day.

The body wash also contains chamomile, which Wechsler recommends for its stress-relieving properties. For an extra dose, she recommends sipping chamomile tea post-bath. Just be sure to deeply breathe in the scent for the soothing aromatherapy benefits.
