DIY Spa treatments

Is anyone else out there regretting not getting their eyebrows done one last time before their state went on lockdown? I know I'm going to have to tackle the eyebrows one day but I will say I'm dreading it and I'm scared. I'm also looking forward to my next pedicure, I'm sorry I took that last one for granted. Now in the grand scheme of things these are trivial things to worry about, sure, but also if you're missing your spa days that is A-OK in my book. That's why I've rounded up some DYI spa treatments that can be done at home, since none of us are going anywhere any time soon.

DIY Spa Treatments

DIY Spa Treatments : Feet

When it comes to treatments I've found everything from pedicures to highlights so let's start at the bottom and work our way up.

This at home pedicure from Massage Gear Guru comes with step by step instructions on how to give yourself a salon style pedicure.

Don't have the time (or energy) to go full on pedicure? No problem, check out this homemade peppermint foot scrub from Jen Around the World. All it takes to make are three ingredients!

DIY Spa Treatments: Legs

Moving up from our feet, let's talk legs! First up, this silky smooth legs sugar scrub from Bitz & Giggles. This three ingredient scrub is perfect for use BEFORE you take a shower and shave your legs.

There's no better time to get our legs in tip top shape. Cool Moms Cool Tips offers tips for beautiful legs that include exfoliating and lots and lots of moisturizer. 

DIY Spa Treatments: Full Body

The next time you take a bath, take it to the next level with this DIY oatmeal rosemary bath truffle.  These bath truffles features shea butter, oatmeal and rosemary, the latter of which helps fight skin aging.

DIY Spa Treatments: Face

"Me time" and face masks go hand in hand (at least, I think so). Follow these instructions from Craft Bits to make your own papaya and oats facial. Three ingredients and suitable for oily skin, this facial will help replenish your skin.

​Don't have a papaya on hand? No worries! Craft Bits also offers this Monkey Magic facial featuring bananas! Mix banana, oatmeal and milk, apply and let sit and viola smooth skin!

Have a zit wearing you down? Try this DIY acne spot treatment Fitmomology.

DIY Spa Treatments: Hair

DIY hair is the most daunting for me. I admittedly highlight my hair as regularly as my (and my husband's) schedule will allow. I've personally never dyed my hair at home - nope not even in high school! I was always to chicken to give it a try. Inspirational Mama lays out a step by step guide (with pictures!) for pinwheel highlighting. 

Full on highlighting not for you? Your hair can still get a spa like treatment with this anti-frizz honey hair mask from Craft Bits. Three ingredients and twenty minutes is all you need!




I hope these at home spa treatments bring you peace in the midst of this chaotic time.
