Creating a Mindful Home Spa Experience
A home spa can be highly individualized, but here are a few ideas to get you started:
- Light a few candles and draw up a warm bath. We love these clean bath salts and soaks from Credo Beauty (or check out this list of EWG-rated bubble baths).
- Turn on your favorite album or podcast while turning off your notifications. If possible, keep your phone and laptop in a drawer to curb any digital temptation.
- Gently cleanse your skin, then apply a nourishing face mask (we love a DIY face mask containing mashed avocado, banana, or pumpkin with manuka honey). Don’t hesitate to break out a hair mask if your locks could use a little TLC, too!
- Break out the body scrub while you relax in the bath.
- After washing away your face mask and patting your skin dry with a clean microfiber towel, massage your face with a jade roller (we love keeping our roller in the fridge for a rejuvenating boost).
- Hop into some ultra-soft loungewear and relax the night away. Our organic cotton wellnesswear is the ultimate compliment to a DIY spa day, with a silky-soft feel against your just-moisturized skin.
