Remember the days when self-care Sundays were a thing? Thank you, lockdown! Even though we are smoothly getting back to “normal life”, we shouldn’t forget to take care of our bodies and invest time in ourselves. A little pampering goes a long way, and although going to a spa used to be a luxury experience not within reach to everyone, nowadays you can take the spa experience to your own home.
With the rise of wellness during the last couple of years, there’s no excuse to invest in a couple of bougie candles, bath bombs, and beauty tools to give yourself the love your body craves – and, yes, all this without having to leave your house. Is there anything better than that? We don’t think so, so get a cuppa and keep reading for our top products and tools to make your spa experience insta-worthy!
Set the Mood
In Essence Diffuser
Invest in a diffuser for your home office, bedroom, and bathroom. Honestly, any room of the house is a perfect fit. If you take a quick look through a Google search, you’ll quickly see that there are many different models with a variety of colours, sizes, and so on, but the 360 Diffuser Noir has a sleek design perfect for anyone, with the uniqueness of dispersing its content in all directions. This means that its 360-degree ring increases the reach and aroma of the diffuser as never before.
Glasshouse Fragrances Candle
Did anyone say bougie candle? Just go for it; you won’t regret it. Adored by A-listers and most people for a reason, their scent lasts for hours and hours. They love a good limited-edition offering – A Tara Affair is one of my all-time favourite scents; think vanilla and caramel and indulge your tooth sweet while the bubbles flow around you. They’ve also just launched a summer drop with cute names like Pretty in Pink or Pool Party.
Bath Time
Susanne Kaufman Bubble Bath
If you are going to dive into a bubble bath at home, you have to do it right, and the Susanne Kaufmann Mallow Blossom Bubble Bath is all you need for that luxurious formula with soothing mallow and relaxing lavender. A little goes a long way, and I’m sure once you try it, you won’t want the bottle to be empty anytime soon. Now it’s time for you to relax and let all its divine plant extracts soothe your body and senses.
PMD Beauty Clean Body
Clean Body will be your best ally for cleansing, exfoliating, and massaging your entire body while in the bathtub (or even in the shower). Give your body some well-deserved TLC. You won’t only feel much better after buffing everything away, but this beauty will also aid in your quest for lifted, firmed, and toned skin without ingrown hairs to deal with. Deal?
Fenty Skin Buff Ryder Exfoliating Body Scrub
A beautiful treatment for that Barbados beach skin all year long! This tropical formula is high in antioxidants for skin as silky and smooth as RiRi’s. Its unique blend of sugar, salt, and sand will create the perfect exfoliation emulsion for an afterwards nourished body. Gently massage a small amount of product all over your body and rinse off for beautiful and indulgent results.
L’Occitane Almond Supple Skin Oil
It’s time to get out of the bathtub and keep indulging your body with none other than the OG Almond Oil from L’Occitane. Close your eyes for a second and imagine yourself à la Provence, then slather the oil from head to toe for more profound nourishing results. Give your body an invigorating massage with upward circular motions to get the most out of this rich formula.
Try New Tools
White Glo Teeth Whitening Kit
Who said a whiter smile couldn’t be part of your self-care routine at home? The White Glo Teeth Whitening Kit is super intuitive to use, providing professional results within the comfort of your home spa. With dental technology, the blue light spectrum helps accelerate the removal of stains or discolouration. Oh, and this whitey tool is an eco-conscious alternative to reduce plastic waste in our oceans!
Wildling Empress Stone
If you made it this far, I’m sure you have used or at least heard of Gua sha, the ultimate wellness tool for your face. Known for its rejuvenating properties, this Wildling goodie is here to plump your skin and help you indulge in a brighter and more sculpted complexion. For long-lasting results, it’s recommended to use it at least 2-3 times per week, but optimally a daily pampering.
Finishing Touch Flawless Pedi
And to finish our spa experience at home, we’re giving some love to our feet. I’m sure you’d love to rock baby feet all year long? That’s what the Flawless Pedi is here for – a magic wand for your feet with salon-quality results. Its easy-reach design is perfect for letting you care for every area of your feet instantly and painlessly, with two filing heads – one coarse roller for dealing with dead skin and another fine roller for everyday maintenance.
