In an ideal world, we’d all be able to treat ourselves to luxury spa experiences on a regular basis. But the reality is, spa treatments are expensive and a much more purse-friendly way of pampering yourself is to do so at home.

So, what are the essential products you need to create that high end spa experience in the (cost-effective) comfort of your own bedroom or bathroom? Let’s take a look.

What products do you need to create a spa experience at home?

From head to toe, what do you need to know?

    •    Face mask

No spa experience, even one at home, would be complete without a face mask. Whether you go for a cream or a sheet mask, a good face mask will infuse your skin with moisture whilst also perking up a tired and dull complexion.

    •    Body scrub

Jump in the shower and rejuvenate your senses and your cells with a body scrub that will power away dead skin and leave you feeling exhilarated and your skin feeling soft to the touch.

    •    Hand mask

We often neglect our hands but they harbor one of the most telling signs of aging. Regular use of a hand mask can help moisturize them whilst also repairing lost elasticity and reducing fine lines and wrinkles.

    •    Foot balm

If we’re looking after our hands, we should also be paying attention to our feet. In summer our feet are on display and in winter they’re often neglected. Use your home spa experience to pamper your tootsies with a hydrating heel balm that will soften cracked and dried skin.

    •    Hair mask

Finally, it’s time to address your crowning glory: Your locks. You’ve pampered yourself from top to toe during your spa experience at home, but don’t forget your hair. A good hair mask will help to resolve any issues you have, from dry, split ends to frizz to lank and thin hair. Just make sure you pick the right mask for your hair type so that you can really get to the root (pun intended) of the issue.

Whether you’re enjoying a solo spa experience at home or turning it into a fun session with friends, choosing the right products will make the difference between a proper pamper session and “we wish we’d gone to the professionals.”
