When it comes to pampering yourself, let’s face it, it can be hard to fit in time to freshen up and relax. Going to the spa can be quite expensive and it’s hard to carve out a chunk of time in your busy schedule. We get it. Even though we all deserve some time to relax, we know it’s next to impossible most days.
That’s why we’re here to teach you how to give yourself a spa day with just some creativity and a few ingredients you already have in your home. There are many ways to do a DIY Spa Day and many reasons to not spend big bucks at a fancy spa. Next time you feel like spending time with your mom, girlfriends, best friend, or just yourself, consider planning a spa day at home.
Mother’s Day is also a great way to surprise your mom with a home spa day. I’m sure she will appreciate it much more than a gift card! Quality time means so much these days. Planning a bridal shower or bachelorette party? My mother-in-law made DIY sugar scrub to give to guests at my bridal shower and people loved it! My friends and I are planning a spa day for our friend’s bachelorette party and I can’t wait to try some of these ideas!

DIY Hair Mask
I have the most frustrating hair. If I blow dry it, it’s frizzy. If I let it air dry, it’s frizzy. Perhaps I should try a DIY hair mask? DIY hair masks are free from harmful chemicals found in store-bought masks and will help cleanse your dry and frizzy hair. They are especially good for curly hair. Try one of these home remedies for dry hair and I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised!

My skin had a rough winter here in the freezing cold Chicago winter. Due to the dry heat indoors, my skin could use some TLC.
