So here are some essentials you might need and a few great ideas to make you spa day that much more special.
Convert the living room into a relaxation nook

This first part of your day should include several facial masks, a mini manny and paddy and of course some great relaxing music in the background. Make sure you have prepared everything so that you don't have to get up too often to fetch things, that would disrupt the relaxation part of the day. Don’t forget to make a few snacks and keep them at hand, some fruit and nuts, and of course it wouldn’t be a spa day without a smoothie. Prepare everything in advance so that you can fully enjoy your me time. Some incense will go nicely with the calm atmosphere in your living room.
