How to get the spa experience at home

You know those days when you just want to get away from it all? When you spend the commute home from work dreaming about checking into a spa and disappearing for a week? Sadly that’s not always possible, but luckily for us, creating that spa experience at home is actually pretty easy. All you have to do? Get creative, make sure you’ve got an array of great home spa products and turn off your phone; this is me-time like never before.

Indulgent products.

Rich and silky products are key for pampering your skin and helping you feel truly indulged during your home spa.

Give skin its spring back.

After giving your skin some spa-inspired pampering, it should feel its silky-soft best. Try using our Body Love Essential Care Body Lotion for instant nourishment and long-lasting moisture. This rich body milk will give you long-lasting, touchable softness you’ll love.

A DIY massage.

Massage it in, alternating soft and medium pressure and it’ll relieve any dry patches, leaving behind even-looking luminous skin (and a completely de-stressed you)
