T&C Editors Share Their Morning Routine Essentials


"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."

Once a week, we ask our editors to share the items they've been loving or lusting after—whether it's a new skincare product we're dying to try or a travel essential we can't live without. Consider "The Weekly Covet" your editor-approved wish list for beauty, travel, fashion, and everything in between.

Masque Vivant

"Aida Bicaj says to do this every day and so I do this every day. It's especially helpful with my current travel schedule. I mix it with Masque VIP O2 and swear it combats what jet lag does to my face. I make my Cup of Nespresso Intenso, put on my mask, catch up on emails, and then, GO!" —Stellene Volandes, Editor in Chief

The Deodorant Balm

"I never thought I would rave about a deodorant, but this stuff is a game-changer. Not only is it natural, elegantly packaged, and beautifully scented (Columbia Road, my favorite, smells like iris and amber) - it WORKS." —April Long, Beauty Director

Skin Caviar Eye Lift

"My morning routine essential, and has been for many, many years, is the application of the only eye cream I use: La Prairie's Skin Caviar Eye Lift. It replenishes, it plumps, it makes feel taken care of. Now, it has a new formula and packaging, cobalt blue so it really stands out on your medicine cabinet. For mega fans of the brand, it's doing a pop-up March 8-10 at the base of Aspen Mountain. If you're in the area, you'll get to try on much more than the eye cream." —Erik Maza, Executive Style Director

Clear 16 oz Tea Steeper

"I'm more of a tea girl than a coffee lover, and this convenient steeper makes it easy for me to make plenty of morning brew to get me going. You fill it like a traditional teapot, but instead of pouring from a spout, the loose leaf tea strains through the bottom—just set it on top of your mug for a quick refill, no bags required." —Lauren Hubbard, Contributor

Corvo EKG Pro Electric Tea Kettle

The Mat

"Last year I started religiously strength training three days a week with Future. Now that a regular workout is part of my routine, I've upgrade my mat, which is foldable, so I can have extra cushion for my sensitive joints should I need. I love the Stakt Mat, but particularly for how it can be stored away out of sight when I'm not using it."—Roxanne Adamiyatt, Deputy Digital Lifestyle Director

Super Porridge / Multi-Serving Bag

"Over the past year I've worked with a dietitian to help improve my eating habits. One thing I've learned: a balanced breakfast is essential. I keep Kroma's porridge on hand because it's got everything you could want—protein, fiber, healthy fats!—and it's easy. I also bring the individually packaged servings with me on trips."—Roxanne Adamiyatt, Deputy Digital Lifestyle Director
