It's been a tough year. Fatigue is starting to set in. And we're still stuck at home in the evenings... We're not letting ourselves get down! Why not take advantage of this providential free time to take care of ourselves and organize a SPA evening at home?
No need for a whole evening or a huge budget. It is possible to get away from it all in an hour and on a small budget.
So put your phone on airplane mode and slip into a bathrobe. Put on some soft music (piano or jazz). In 1 hour you will be serene, relaxed and radiant.
STEP N°1: BATH OR SHOWER WITH ESSENTIAL OILS
Whether you have a bathtub or a shower, enjoy the benefits of essential oils.
Pour 2 drops into your bath water, or into a corner sheltered from the water in your shower.
The steam will help the essential oils diffuse, and you will have a true spa-like experience.
Choose lavender for its relaxing properties or eucalyptus to clear the airways.
Be careful not to apply these pure essential oils to the skin.

STEP 2: FACE AND BODY EXFOLIATION
The ideal time to exfoliate is after showering or bathing, as the pores are dilated and dead cells are more easily removed.
Our Go For Glow Cleansing Gel can be used as a radiance mask and left on dry skin for gentle exfoliation suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive!
For the body, opt for a homemade exfoliation with coffee grounds mixed with coconut oil. Coffee grounds stimulate microcirculation and even help get rid of orange peel skin. Coconut oil nourishes and softens the skin.
Apply to dry skin in circular motions. Rinse with warm water to dissolve the coconut oil and not clog your pipes.
STEP 3: APPLICATION OF MASK AND MANICURE (LIKE AT THE SPA!)
1. Once the skin is exfoliated and rid of dead cells, it will be particularly receptive to the application of a mask.
Again, you can nourish your skin with ingredients you have at home.
Recipe for a nourishing mask with probiotics:
- Mix half a Greek yogurt (full of live probiotic strains to rebalance the skin flora) and honey (humectant, hydrating, healing and restorative).
- Leave to stand for 15 minutes.
STEP #4: NOURISH YOUR SKIN
- Once the mask is rinsed, don't forget to nourish your skin before night -
Time To Repair Night Cream is ideal for nighttime use, as it detoxifies, nourishes and repairs the skin while you sleep.
Take advantage of this moment of relaxation to go to bed early, with music or a book.
Your natural home spa is finally finished. You are now radiant and more rested than ever.
