With the current pandemic and ongoing Conditional Movement Control Order, going to the spa for a mind-and-body pick-me-up is not a possibility. Instead of wondering when you can book a session at your favourite spa again, perhaps it’s time to get creative and make do with what you can do at home!
Set some time aside during the week and pamper yourself with these creative spa treatments that can be done using simple ingredients that are probably already in your pantry. They’re quick, easy and inexpensive.
Edible Mud Mask
This tasty mud mask (yes, it’s edible!) is a breeze to whip up at home. Using simple kitchen staples such as honey, lemon juice and bananas to name a few, you’d be surprised at the benefits this combo brings. It exfoliates and smoothens skin, loosens dead skin cells and clears out pores. It also locks in moisture and is rich in antioxidants which leaves the skin soft and glowing. If you have prepared more than what is required for the mask, you can always have a nibble at the leftovers!
