Covid has made all of the prisoners inside our own homes. It’s made caring for yourself, away from home responsibilities a little difficult. This is not good, as it means that you aren’t getting enough me-time. Me-time, as we all know is quite important for not only our sanity but also our physical and mental well-being.
One way you can arrange a me-time for yourself is by creating an at-home spa. Confused? Don’t worry! We’ll walk you through all the wonders that you can create for an at-home COVID-friendly spa.
1. Purchase Skin Care Products
The first thing you have to do when creating your at-home spa is to make sure that you have all the skincare products you need. If You don’t know which products are essential, here’s a list to start you off:
· Face masks
· Eye masks
· Hair masks
· Body scrubs
· Lip scrubs
· Face scrubs
If you’re a beginner for at-home spa days, then this list will get you started, until you figure out how you’d like to spend your spa days at home.
2. Purchase Spa Accessories
After you’ve got all the skincare products bought, now you need some accessories. Basic accessories include:
· Jade rollers
· Face brushes
· Nail cutters
· A tub for manicure and pedicure
· Small towels
Once again this list will only start you off on the journey of creating your perfect at-home spa in these difficult COVID times.
3. Invite A Friend
What’s a spa day without a friend or two? Yes, even though it’s a pandemic and everything is on lockdown, you can have a spa date with your friends, as long as you take the proper precautions. Make sure they are sanitized, wearing masks, and vaccinated. Once they are in the house, keep your seats (the place where you’ll be housing your home spa) at a distance. Close enough that you can talk and have fun, but far enough that there is proper distance.
4. Music, Candles And Fairy lights
There’s no better way to set the mood than with music, candles, and fairy lights. While setting up your home spa, be sure to buy some sweet-smelling candles, place them around the room, and let their aroma fill the air. Turn off the lights and plug in the fairy lights to create a calmer visual, and put on some light music to get you into a more relaxed meditative mood.
Your Home Spa Is Ready!
Once you’ve followed all of these steps, your mini home spa, complete with COVID regulations is ready! Isn’t it neat? You can do anything you want in this space. Give yourselves facials, manicures, pedicures, hair massages, back massages, aromatherapy, music therapy, or just some regular laughter between friends. Or if you want none of this, then just soak your feet and hands in warm water, close your eyes and relax for a while. Have fun!
