Create a spa experience for someone who truly deserves it! Need a reason to pamper yourself? Try Valentine's Day!
Plan your bath in advance. Ensure that there will be no responsibilities for you to take care of directly before, during, or an hour after to maximize relaxation (can't relax if you're rushed). Give yourself an hour to soak. Fold one towel in thirds and set it on the side of the tub. This is where you can place books, magazines, or anything you don't want to get wet. Grab your sugar scrub (check out our recipe!) and all other items listed below. Light your candle or spray your air freshener, get your towels and lotions ready for afterwards, and run the tub. Brew your concoction of bubble bath and bath salts in hot water (not too hot, of course), then get in and enjoy!
Before/During Bath:
Towel (3)
Wash Cloth
Bath Salts
Bubble Bath
Foot Soak
Exfoliating Scrub (Check out the post on homemade sugar scrub!)
Pumice Stone
Razor and Shaving Cream
Water Bottle
Facial Mask (to wear during bath)
Cucumber Slices (for eyes)
Shower Cap
Candle/Air Freshener
An abundance of time (I suggest 1 hour)
Book/Journal/Magazines (NO WORK or Electronics, only relaxing)
After Bath:
Hand/Body/Foot Lotion(s)
Perfume
Bath Robe
Small Hair Towel
Slippers
Clothes/Undergarments
If you're doing this for your significant other, consider making a romantic dinner/date, then bath, then treat with a manicure, pedicure, and massage after the bath. Don't forget a heartfelt note or card, chocolate, and wine!
