A day of SPA at home can turn out to be as beautiful and relaxing as a day spent in a good SPA-salon. All you need to do is choose a free day when you have no plans to do anything, turn off your phone, light candles, and decorate the interior. Then take a hot bath with a bath bomb, make a face mask, and finish the SPA day with manicure and pedicure.
Bath With A Glass Of Wine, Music And A Bath Bomb
First, dial the hot tub by filling it with water at the right temperature for you. While the bath is filling, turn off the lights and light a few candles. You can also supplement your holiday with a few favourite things, such as: pour yourself a glass of wine, juice, tea, fruit punch or just water; play your favourite music; light an incense; get your favourite robe or bath towel.
When the bath is full, add bath salt, essential oil, and other ingredients to the water. It is a great way to take a bath, and it will also help you relax. But don’t limit yourself to bath salts, either. Feel free to add some foam, oils, unique bath gems, different bath bombs, and anything else that will help you relax. By the way, there are high bath bombs with CBD. Being a part of the bomb, CBD takes its advantages to a new level. It has hundreds of activated cannabinoids, but CBD is now the hottest of all. It’s not psychoactive, but its anti-inflammatory properties can help soothe redness and pain under the skin.
If you want, you can add milk and oatmeal to your bath, because these products have a strong moisturising effect and are great for dry skin. Try also adding almond oil, jojoba oil, or a spoonful of coconut butter. After taking a bath, you will notice that your skin has become soft and gentle.
Skin Care
At the spa, you would be asked to choose between a seaweed mask or a mud mask. The first one is harder to make at home, but you can easily create a mud mask with cosmetic clay. You should leave such a cover on your skin for a few minutes and then wash it off. The mask will give your skin a feeling of softness and youthfulness.
Do not forget to moisturise the skin. You can do this with a good cream, which will complete the facial treatment. You can also apply some oil (e.g., jojoba oil, argan oil, almond oil, or CBD oil) in addition to the usual facial cream. CBD oil, for example, has unique properties. It is rich in fatty acids such as omega-6 and omega-3A and vitamins and contains linoleic acid, which has a positive effect on the skin. Besides, CBD oil helps maintain skin tone without causing acne. If your skin is dehydrated, you can try using coconut oil.
Manicure & Pedicure
Start by removing the old varnish from the nails on your hands and feet. If possible, it is better to use a nail polish remover without acetone, because acetone dries the nails.
Then you should soak your fingers in warm water. Prepare a bowl of warm water and dip your fingers in it for 5 minutes. It will soften the cuticle and nails and make it easier for you to manicure.
After that, trim and file up your fingernails. Take the manicure scissors; there are special rounded scissors that can be used to cut the nails, giving them a semi-circular shape quickly. To smooth out the unevenness and provide the nails with a well-groomed appearance, file up the nails with a file.
Trimming and filing up the nails, apply nail polish. A good manicure requires at least three coats of nail polish: base coat, colour coat, and topcoat. Each layer should be dehydrated before applying the next one so that the sheets do not mix. If you want to decorate your nails with some pattern, it should be done only after the coloured coating dries.
Finally, wet your legs and exfoliate the dead skin. Braces are often neglected, but it’s your spa day, so make time for foot skincare. Repeat what you did with your hands. If you have dry or calloused skin, take pumice to remove dead cells.
After working on your skin, also trim and polish your toenails. Give a suitable rounded shape to the nails with scissors or clippers to prevent an ingrown nail. You can make an excellent three-layer pedicure, or you can simply apply a transparent protective coating to make the nails look more groomed.
Voilà, fresh and rested, you are ready to continue to conquer this world!
