Moms are cooks, tutors, housekeepers, personal shoppers and chauffeurs that are on-call 24/7. I love every minute of it! A weekly Home Spa Treatment keeps me on my toes and out of the expensive day spas.

To make your own Home Spa, you’ll need a few things:

• 1 or 2 hours of quiet time after putting children to sleep
• favorite music and tall glass of water
• facial cleanser, facial scrub or mud mask
• nail clippers, polish and nail file
• tweezers and eye brow brush
• foot soak, foot scrub or foot file
• favorite essential oils for bath
• bath soak and course sea salt for a body scrub
• handled body scrubber
• deep hair conditioner
• night facial cream or aloe vera gel
• tea bags or cucumber slices for eyelids

Simple Home Spa Routine

• First, wash face with a good facial cleanser and then facial scrub or mask.
• Follow with a little eye brow plucking.
• Soak in bath tub with your favorite essential oil (tea tree oil and lavender oil are my favorite).
• Scrub with body scrubber and mild soap.
• Relax in tub w/ tea bags or cucumber slices on eyes after adding a deep conditioner to hair.
• Salt Scrub body with one cup of course sea salt and a little water for a paste.
• Start at toes and work up with circular motions. This can be your foot scrub!
• Shower out conditioner and finish with night cream or aloe vera gel on face and neck.
• For dry skin, use a few drops of olive oil as a moisturizer, towel off excess.
• Trim, file and polish nails.
• Grab a good book and go to sleep!
