I’ve been working on this for a while, and it’s finally ready!

The Shelf is a curated shortlist of health, wellness, and beauty products I actually use, with discount codes and free trials for Healthy Futures paid subscribers.

It now lives as its own section of this newsletter. You can browse it anytime. New additions will land here as their own posts, so you’ll get an email each time something earns a spot.

The bar for landing on The Shelf is simple: Despite whatever the science says (which I always check), would I recommend this to a friend, unprompted? If the answer isn’t an immediate yes, it doesn’t make the list.

Some of these products were sent to me by brands; some of those brands are affiliate partners with Healthy Futures. Other items I purchased myself. Either way, the standard is the same, and every listing includes a disclosure denoting which is which.

How The Shelf works

The beauty of The Shelf is how slim the pickings are; I mean it when I say a spot here is earned—and I’m a tough sale. The section will grow over time, but I’m not trying to build a long list. I’m trying to build one that prioritizes quality over quantity. When a new product is added, you’ll get a dedicated post.

If even one code saves you $10–15 a month, your subscription has already paid for itself. If you’re not yet a paid subscriber, this is a good time to sign up!
