Pampering yourself at home can change the way you look at your home and week ahead. I’ve heard it said that French woman set aside time on Sunday to take a few hours to pamper themselves. You can choose what ever day works best for you. This doesn’t need to be complicated or expensive.

Prepare your space

A well lit bathroom is best but if you don’t have a separate bathroom you can lock yourself in for a few hours then your kitchen, a quiet garden spot or even a balcony will do. What ever space you choose should be clean and as clutter free as possible. Taking a few minutes to clean and declutter your space will let you enjoy your spa day without thinking about chores.

Create Your Personal Spa Treatment Menu

Think of at menu at a fancy spa, what treatment would you choose?

Bath - Salt bath to relieve tension, aromatherapy bath, bubble bath

Face - Spa facial, extraction, facial mask, waxing

Hands - cuticle treatment, exfoliating scrub, nail shaping, nail polish

Feet - callus removal, moisturizing treatment, nail trim, nail polish, foot massage

Hair - deep condition, color, or scalp oil treatment

All over skin treatment - scrub and moisturize, tanning or self tanning, shave or waxing

Gather your supplies

You should get everything you need before you start so you won’t have to leave your spa experience. Here’s a list of things you might want.

Great extras

  • Almond oil - a moisturizer, makeup remover, cuticle oil, scalp oil, bath softener  Feathered Empty Nest Tip this works great as a natural personal lubricant

  • Self tanner - I love St Tropez Self Tanning Mousse
