The Ultimate Luxury Spa-At-Home Treatment
By Melissa Cruz
You’ve had a hectic week, and all you want to do is laze around, kick off your shoes let the world fade away.
In moments like these, you can have the ultimate spa treatment and at minimal cost to you. Just gather the stuff you need and get ready for an ultimate spa treatment right in your own home!
1. Give your face a healthy glow with an Almond and Honey Scrub.
Ingredients are simply 2 Tablespoons of ground almonds, and 1 Tablespoon of honey.
Wash your face with your regular cleanser, and pat dry. Mix the ground almonds and honey together and gently scrub it onto your face in circular motions for about a minute or two.
The natural oils in the almonds are very rich in protein and are an emollient for the skin. The ground almonds help slough away dead skin while the honey promotes healing.
2.Next, soak your cares away with a Milk and Rose Petal bath.
All you need is 1/4 cup of powdered milk, 1/2 cup of salt, and rose petals.
Fill your tub with warm water and add the powdered milk and salt. Add the petals last of all and soak to your heart’s content.
The lactic acid in the milk and the minerals in the salt both work to soften the skin. The rose petals have astringent properties that help the skin, smell great, and look so relaxing in a bath.
3.Lastly, wash your hair, rinse, and treat it to a Yogurt Hair Mask.
Beat 1 egg white until foamy and add 5 Tablespoons of plain, natural yogurt.
Yogurt is high in protein, calcium, and vitamins, which are all good for the hair. The egg white is pure protein and will leave your hair smooth and refreshed. Leave this mixture on for 15 minutes and rinse off.
These treatments are sure to keep your skin glowing, your hair shining, and give your mood a needed boost.
A friendly warning: These luxuries are habit-forming!
