I'm pretty sure you can resonate with the way one feels after a good wash day. Well, that is just an inch of how you would feel after a good spa day. After all, you need a little self-care here and there. While going to an actual spa can be expensive and a bit socially taxing (especially for small population towns) this does not mean that you should entirely write off Spa days. Instead, you can opt for DIY Spa treatments that are achievable at home at very low costs. Here are some at-home DIY Spa Treatments you can try in the comfort of your own home.
Cucumbers On Eyes
If you suffer from extra puffy eyes and think that the only way you can remedy this is by actually visiting the spar, then you must not have heard about this very efficient treatment. All you need to do is cut some cucumber slices and place them on your closed eyes. Not only does this have a cooling effect on very hot summer days, but it is also the perfect remedy for your eye puffiness. After this, you will look and feel refreshed, just as you would on a spar date.
Soaking Your feet
Are you aware that your feet can hold all the tension in your body, making you feel tense and less relaxed for the longest? Therefore, when you are giving yourself the spa treatment, don't just overlook them. They also need your love and attention. All you need to do is put warm water into a container that fits your feet and add Epsom salt. You can even add your favourite essential oil to the mix as this will give you an extra relaxing aroma, overall making you feel the spa treatment, even though you will be home
Bath Scrub
If you envy the glowing and glistening skin that people have after their spa dates, then you need to hook yourself onto the trend of bath scrubs. Your skin requires you to scrub it once in a while so that the dirt that is stuck between your pores is removed and that all dead skin is exfoliated. Lucky for you, you can make your scrubs in the comfort of your home so that you can give yourself this spa treatment. All you need to do is mix sugar with either coconut oil or olive oil, then you'll have your very own skin exfoliator. You can even add coffee to the mix, as this will help you deal with cellulite while revitalizing your sin. If you decide on this DIY Spa treatment, you'll be sure to feel different (in a good way) after doing it, so don't sit on this hack.
Hair Treatment
It can't be a full spa experience if your hair is not also included, can it? You also need to ensure that your hair is well taken care of, and for that, here are the perfect DIY hacks for that. All you need are your very accessible herbal teas, as they contain so many good nutrients for your hair, which may also extend to your scalp, making it more relaxed and happier. You can add water to a spray bottle then add your favourite herbal teas together and leave them to soak for a while. After this, all you need to do is make sure that all your hair is covered by the mixture and leave it in for a while before rinsing it. This will give you the natural shine that you envy from the people you see at spas.
Gel Face Mask
You can't forget to put a face mask on your face for that luxurious feel that will leave your skin extra hydrated and soothed. Aloe vera is the perfect home ingredient to use for your face mask. Not only is this DIY, but it can be relatively better than all the chemicalized face masks that are store-bought and can be used at a spa. You just need to rub Aloe Vera juice all over your skin and leave it for at least 10 minutes before rinsing it off. All the irritation you may have felt on your skin for the last couple of days will instantly go away with this very useful and potent DIY gel face mask.
Face Steaming
There's just something relaxing, soothing and detoxifying about a good facial steaming session. This is a very important part of the DIY spa treatment that you can't overlook or skip, as your skin will become better than before once you start incorporating it. All you need to do is pour boiling water into a bowl and then add mint to it. After this, you can lean into the bowel for at least 10 minutes and leave your pores to open. This treatment will inevitably improve your blood circulation, giving your skin that extra healthy glow that you will appreciate.
Lip Scrub
This part of the body is often overlooked, yet it wouldn't make sense for you to have all your other body parts glowing whilst your lips are chapped and in need of attention. Scrubbing your lips is the perfect remedy for you to exfoliate your lips so that they can look healthier than they currently do. By mixing honey with sugar and gently exfoliating with this mixture, your lips will become better looking and even feel better for you as they will now be able to retain more moisture every time you moisturize them.
