DIY Spa Day!!

I don't know about you but I love the spa especially a whole day where you get the bath, facial and the whole deal. Well, maybe you can but I can't afford all that due to the economy right now so I thought why not bring the spa to me! There are so many different options for what you can use for a natural cleansing. The one thing you must do is stock up on honey!! Here are a few recipes that if I haven't used yet I will be soon.

Honey Cleansing Scrub-

• 1 Tblsp of Honey
• 2 Tblsp finely ground almonds
• 1/2 tsp lemon juice

Rub the mixture gently on your face and rinse with warm water.

Firming Face Wash

• 1 Tblsp honey
• 1 egg white
• 1 tsp glycerin (which can be found at health stores)
• enough flour to make a paste around 1/4 cup

Smooth over face let sit for ten minutes and rinse with warm water.

Facial Toner

• 1 Tblsp honey
• peeled and cored apple

Puree ingredients in blender. Smooth over face, leave for 15 minutes and rinse with cool water.

Moisture Mask

• 2 Tblsps honey
• 2 tsp milk

Smooth mixture over face and throat and rinse with warm water.

Courtyard Milk Bath

• 2 cups dry powder milk
• 1/2 cup Epsom salt
• 1/2 cup baking soda
• 6 drops rose scented oil
• 5 drops vanilla scented oil
• 4 drops lavender scented oil
• 4 drops lemongrass scented oil

This mixture can be premade and kept in a nice container for yourself or put it in multiple containers to use as gifts. Add a cup of the mixture to your bath and enjoy! The scented oils can be mixed to what your preference is.

For a simple skin softening bath add just 1/4 cup honey to your bath.

I'm looking forward to my next DIY day at the spa!
