Relaxing Spa You Will Love to Do At Home
We may forget to take care of ourselves sometimes, especially when we have a hectic life. Everyone wants some TLC at times and taking care of ourselves is important. A simple way to relax and show ourselves some love is to go to a spa. However, not everyone can go to the hotel for a spa as often as we like. So the alternative is to DIY a relaxing spa treatment at home. We can pamper ourselves in the comfort and coziness of our own homes.
You can let your body rest so that you can feel refreshed with a spa. Below are some tips for you to create the perfect relaxing spa treatment at home.
Set the mood
You have to create a cozy feeling to set the mood for having your spa at home. Firstly, remove all the clutter and bring out your favorite scented candles or oil diffusers. The scent is important in a spa zone. Look for your favorite essential oil and drop a few into the diffuser. The fresh aroma from the diffuser will calm your senses. Next, dim the lights in the room and lit the candles.
Play some music
Having some soothing music in the background can be comforting and relaxing. Choose your favorite slow music or create a playlist that includes the sound of the rain, stream, waterfall or forest.
Get ready some cozy attire
Now that you have gotten the place ready, it is time to put on your fluffy bathroom and slippers to make this experience special.
Make your day free
This special spa day is all about you. It is best to switch off your phone and laptop to quiet down your mind. Avoid interruptions so that you can unwind. Sit down and have a warm drink before you begin your spa treatment.
Best DIY spa treatments you can do at home
Below is a selection of home spa treatments that you can give it a try.
- Relaxing bath with bath bombs
Fill your tub up and light some scented candles. Give your bath time some spa experience with a bath bomb. The bath bombs contain citric acid that is good for exfoliating skin. They also have oils that hydrate the body. The bath bombs also have a relaxing scent like lavender to lift your mood.
- Foot spa
A great way to show your feet some love is giving it a foot spa. Ready-made foot scrub is available or you can create your own using Himalayan salt, coconut oil with a few drops of peppermint essential oil. Mix everything up and stir. Massage and exfoliate your feet gently with the mixture and wash them off. Rub lotion all over your feet to moisturize them.
- Full Body Scrub
A full body scrub can relax and improve blood circulation. You can purchase body scrubs from the store or use Himalayan salt that helps to remove your body’s dead skin. Slather the body scrub all over your body and massage. Then rinse off in the shower. Next, use a body cream and massage it in slowly. You will feel like a new person after this.
- Facial Spa
Treat your face to a steaming facial session. Place hot water in a bowl with some drops of essential oil into it. Keep eyes closed with a towel covering the head during steaming. Next, rinse your face with your favorite cleanser. Use a soft towel to dry your face. Next, use a face mask while you sit back and relax. Remove the mask after 30 minutes and rinse. Put moisturizer on your face.
Hair Treatment
Shampoo your hair twice to give it a healthy, shiny look. Lightly massage your head while shampooing to give it a smooth blood flow. Rinse off the shampoo and towel dry. Apply a hair mask and leave it for some time. The last step is rinsing off the hair mask with lukewarm water and you will have yourself some silky locks.
