There is nothing like a luxury spa experience, and with the right luxury products you can recreate the spa experience in the comfort of your own home! It is a great way to relax and have a much-needed self-care day, and avoid the post-spa trip home since you’re just there and ready to relax.
With a little bit of preparation and those incredible self-care steps that you would have at a spa, you can create that luxe spa experience at home.
Here is your how-to for a luxury at-home spa experience:
1) set the mood:
Spas always have a way of putting you at ease right when you walk in, so you want to recreate that experience at your home. Start with a clean space that feels refreshing, put on relaxing music, light some candles and add those personal touches to make it a space you really want to be in.
2) aromatherapy
Give your space a boost with aromatherapy and your favorite essential oils. Some of the top essential oils for relaxation are lavender, ylang ylang, and chamomile. You can keep the essential oils going throughout your spa day and bonus, you’ll even associate the smell of that essential oil with this relaxing experience too!
3) draw a bath and use a luxurious body wash
A bath is incredible for relaxation, and if you add in some Epsom salt to the bath water and use a luxurious body wash, such as the Blue Lagoon mineral spa body wash, it will feel more elevated than just a ‘regular bath’.
4) apply a face mask and eye patches
If you love a face mask, take out your favorite or special one here to add to that luxe experience. Apply it with a face mask applicator to give it that experience boost, and add eye patches as you let it soak all in.
5) apply a hair mask
A hair mask is a product that many find they don’t have time for on a weekly basis, so take the time while soaking in the bath and during this self-care time to let one soak in! Your hair will thank you.
6) after the bath, apply a body oil
After you hop out of the bath, apply a body oil to still damp skin so those products really absorb into your skin.
7) do a facial massage
A facial massage is not only relaxing but it is also a great way to get the blood and lymph moving, helping to reduce inflammation and give your skin a boost. A face tool like a gua sha or jade roller is the prefect addition along with a nice face oil, and you’ll notice it can actually help your skincare products absorb better as well.
To add to your at-home luxe spa experience, get a plush robe and silk PJs to top it off! There is nothing like slipping out of a self-care experience and into a cozy robe, then into cozy lounge clothes for when you’re ready for it!
