After the last year and a half, we deserve some pamper time. Self-care and looking after ourselves have certainly become somewhat of a priority. We know how important it is to look after ourselves and our overall health. There are many ways you can do this but everyone loves a good pampering session.
Facials Are A Must
There are all different types of facials so what you need will depend on your skin type and skin problems. One of the options is a HydraFacial. It is the only hydradermabrasion procedure that combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, hydration, and antioxidant protection simultaneously. The results leave your skin clearer, beautiful with no discomfort or downtime. The treatment that you have for it is soothing, moisturizing, non-invasive, and non-irritating.
One of the other popular facials is Microcurrent therapy. This sends low-level electrical currents into your skin. The currents are nearly identical to the body’s own natural electrical frequencies. Running a current over your body adds more electrons to your system, helping you make energy more quickly and stimulating tissue and cellular repair. You can get these at Dr Refresh med spa.
Laser Treatments Are A Real Treat
They are such a lovely treatment to have as it helps you out long term, they are useful for removing unwanted hair from the face, leg, chin, back, arm, underarm, bikini line, and other areas. One of the benefits is the precision of laser hair removal. The lasers can selectively target dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged
Laser hair removal is one of the most commonly done cosmetic procedures in the U.S. It works by beaming highly concentrated light into your hair follicles. The pigment in the follicles absorbs the light and then it destroys the hair.
Massages Help You To Destress
Life gets very stressful sometimes. It can leave us tense, feeling tight, and achy. It’s crazy how mental stress can physically affect the body. If you are active you will also have tight and sore muscles from regular exercise. A great way to tackle this is by having a massage. There are lots of different massages that you can get. If you go for a spa weekend it is a great thing to add to your treatments. You can have a full body massage, a head, and neck massage and there are even specialist massages for sports and pregnancy. They are normally done in a very calming and relaxing environment so as you’re having the massage all of your worries and stress could just melt away as your muscles become more relaxed and feeling better.
Getting Your Brows Sorted
Our brows have become one of the features on our face that needs the most care. Have them shaped, tinted, plucked, waxed, or threaded. Big bushy brows were the hottest trend last year and now well-kept brows are at the top of a lot of people’s lists when it comes to grooming themselves. A great option for this is micro-blading. It is a treatment that is long-lasting and can have you waking up with your brows looking perfect every time. You won’t need to tend to them on a daily basis. Speak to your local micro-blading consultant and see how it can work for you.
DIY Treatments
There are some things that you can even do at home. Saving money on the little things means you can splash out on some of the most beneficial treatments mentioned above. One of the things you can do at home is a foot mask. Our feet take the brunt of so much stuff every single day. Running, walking, wearing heels, and sometimes stepping on toys which is just plain painful. The skin gets hard and cracked and it really needs some TLC. Our feet are probably one of the most forgotten parts of us when thinking about pampering. You can buy foot masks over the counter but you can also make them yourself at home. There are so many online with simple things around the house.
Add Milk To The Shopping List
Something that is becoming more and more popular is a milk bath which has lots of benefits. It is super nourishing and the lactic acid that is in milk helps to contribute to softer skin. If you suffer from skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis then they can also be really soothing for the skin and help you that way too. If you just simply run a bath then add in a few cups of whole milk you’re ready to go. If you want to give yourself a more luxurious bath then add in some honey or essential oils. You can also get some dried flowers or rose petals to float. Pop some relaxing music on and light some candles and you will feel like you’re in the spa in the comfort of your own home.
So, whether you’re pampering yourself at home or a spa makes sure you start implementing some of these into your pamper routine. The last year and a half are shown as to how important it is to look after ourselves. Especially for mothers, you worry about everyone else and all of the jobs that you need to do that you very easily forget about looking after yourself so now is the time to put a bit of time aside for yourself and give yourself a break and a pamper.
There are some treatments like laser treatments and facials that you will always want to go to the professionals for sometimes the option to do it yourself at home just won’t cut it. Our skin is our biggest organ so it’s something that we need to be looking after very carefully although it is normally something that everyone forgets about. Have a day off and go to the spa for some lovely treatments and then the following time that you want to have a pamper you can have your friends around and try some DIY home treatments.
