11 Spa Headbands to Accent Your Skin-Care Routine
Even if you're a skin-care newbie, chances are, you already know the importance of washing your face and implementing a solid skin-care routine. While you wouldn’t necessarily categorize these seemingly simple, small tasks as fun, a cute skin-care headband can make the experience a lot more enjoyable.
Fortunately, there are dozens (if not hundreds) of skincare headbands available in an array of materials, styles, colors, and patterns to suit your personal style preferences. Ultimately, regardless of which material you choose, the best skin-care headbands offer comfort and support to protect your edges and keep hair out of your face as you apply your products and cleanse your skin.
Additionally, many of the best bands are made with super-soft, stretchy, and machine-washable materials like microfiber and terry cloth. Some include luxurious details like silk fabric or a hook and loop closure instead of velcro. Others offer adjustable designs and elasticized backs, both of which make for a more customizable fit — sans rubbing, tugging, or irritation.
Whether your nighttime routine calls for a chic printed band or morning prep needs a straightforward, yet efficient, Amazon find — we've rounded up a useful batch of skin-care headbands to transform your self-care experience.

1/11Glow Recipe
Glow Recipe Blueberry Spa Headband
Glow Recipe's Blueberry Spa Headband is just as fun to wear as it is functional. The adorable bendable bunny ears ensure your hair stays pushed back as you get ready for the day — or night — ahead. Plus, it's made with recycled cotton: an added bonus to feel good about when hitting "add to cart."
2/11Kylie Skin
Kylie Skin Headband
Between the soft pink color and embroidered logo, this Kylie Skin Headband has Instagram selfie written all over it. Pair the soft terry cloth band with a full Kylie Skin product lineup, or stick with your own skin-care routine. Either way, as you work your way through your cleansers and creams, prepare to snap a few photos in the process.
3/11Honest Beauty
Honest Beauty Fuzzy Headband
Honest Beauty Fuzzy Headband feels like a soft teddy bear against your head. The cozy fabric easily stretches to get around your head, but then sits securely without sliding off while you wash and work around the band. Plus, the little ears are simply adorable.
4/11Free People
Free People Leila Soft Headband
Free People's Leila Soft Headband works just as well with an outside outfit as it does with your bathrobe. The classic bandana-style pattern comes in three colors, including this mint shade show above, and can be worn gathered up into a tight band or spread the fabric out to cover more of your hair like a headscarf.
6/11Kitsch
Kitsch Microfiber Spa Headband
This chic leopard-printed Microfiber Spa Headband from Kitsch features a plush microfiber fabric — and the band is multifunctional, too. Use the built-in slit at the back to pull your hair back into a ponytail without relying on a separate hair tie, and then secure the front of hair with the velcro closure.
7/11Pocova
Pocova Microfiber Bowtie Headband
At just under five dollars, this adorable Pocova Microfiber Bowtie Headband is a total steal. Its plush bowtie design adds a playful flair to any bedtime or morning routine, while the thick and sturdy microfiber and elastic material prevent the band from losing its shape.
8/11Slip
Slip Pure Silk Headband
Slip's Pure Silk Headband is — as its name so appropriately suggests — made with 100 percent silk. The elastic back prevents the band from sliding around your head, while the knotted front design keeps hair out of sight, out of mind. You can easily get away with wearing this one out of the house as you would any standard headband.
9/11Lele Sadoughi
Lele Sadough Pink Multi Terry Cloth Knitted Headband
Love a bold accessory? Consider this vibrant, statement-making Lele Sadoughi Pink Multi Terry Cloth Knitted Headband. The wide, moisture-absorbing terry cloth material keeps hair dry — even through a double-cleansing routine — both around the hairline and strands that might spill over from the crown.
10/11Appearus
Appearus Stretchable Spa Headband
Another ideal option for thick, full hair is the Appearus Stretchable Spa Headband, which can expand up to 28 inches (from 21 inches). A hook-and-loop closure offers a secure fit while the terry cloth material keeps hair in place and dry through every step of your skin-care routine. The band comes in a pack of four so you can easily keep one at home and pack another when you travel.
