If you find yourself overworked, stressed, or just in need of some ‘me’ time, have a spa day!
Taking time to unwind and treat your body right is important for your physical and mental health. If you’re short on time, we get it — it doesn't have to be a whole day of pampering. Just be sure to dedicate an hour or two to relax and treat yourself!
Prep
First, make sure your bathroom is clean and decluttered. This is where you’ll be spending most of your time.
Next, head to the kitchen to grab some snacks. Go for foods that are tasty and nourishing, like fruit and yogurt, veggies and ranch, or tea sandwiches. Arrange everything on a charcuterie board or plate.
Don’t forget a book and a device to play music. Choose one or both depending on what you’re in the mood for.
Bring everything to the bathroom and set down somewhere you can reach from the tub. Or you can use a Bathtub Tray!
Your spa routine
Light a candle, wax melt or use a reed diffuser. Choose a scent that's light and relaxing like Eucalyptus Lavender or Freshen Up.
To kick off your self-care routine, start with your face. Try a Facial Roller or a Gua Sha stone. Using these tools has some benefits such as improving lymphatic flow and drainage, and reducing puffiness and inflammation. Gently massaging your face can also have a calming effect. Both can be stored in the fridge and should be used with a facial oil, serum or moisturizer.
Alternatively, you can do a face mask! Our Scented Face Masks will leave your skin feeling silky smooth. Make sure your skin is clean and then apply the mask in an even layer to your face. Let sit for 10-15 minutes. Rinse off and gently pat your face dry.
Afterwards, take a warm bubble bath to relax your body and ease any aches or tension. We recommend our Scented Bubble Baths which are made with natural, non-toxic ingredients.
While you soak, read your book, eat your snacks and enjoy your music! You can also exfoliate your body if your skin feels a bit rough. Try our Scented Sugar Scrubs to help eliminate any dry, dead skin.
We hope you take time to pamper yourself and relax this summer … You deserve it!
