Hello beautifuls!
HAPPY MOTHERS DAAAAYYYY!!!
So, on this special occasion, why not we pamper our mothers with a spa treatment? Forget all those expensive, fancy spas; its DIY Spa Time! This head to toe Mother's Day special will definitely be a wonderful experience for our beloved mothers and show them our appreciation even more than just splurging on beauticians.
Hair and scalp care
Mix half avocado, honey, and olive oil until a paste-like consistency is formed. Massage on damp hair and let the mask sit for 15 minutes. Rinse and shampoo as usual.
This mixture will leave hair soft and silky. But be thrift with the olive oil as you wouldn't want your mum to be walking around with oily scalp! Oooppss.
Facial treatment
Squeeze half a lemon, honey, yougurt and a bit of sodium bicarbonate. Add sea salt (or sugar) for scrub if desired. Massage onto the face with a circular motion focusing on the area with prominent blackheads.
Lemon and sodium bicarbonate has natural whitening essence and honey softens the skin
Lip scrub
Mix sugar, cocoa/shea butter and scrub the lips to chip off the dead and dry skins. If no cocoa or shea butter available; the normal butter, margerine or olive oil can also be excellent substitutes!
Relaxing bath
Pop in your homemade bath bombs and bubble bar. Sprinkle her favorite flower in the bubbles and let your mother enjoy the soothing scents and relax.
*short commercials* anyone wishes to order home made bath bombs or bath truffles email us at be.ay.you.ti.ful@gmail.com or just leave a comment below. Thanks!
Massage
Blend cucumber, honey, olive oil, and sea salt to form paste and softly massage onto the body focusing on the areas like shoulders, back, calf, thighs, knees and elbows. These will help soothe muscle ache and restore the moisture in these dry areas. The paste can either be rinsed off or wiped.
Foot massage
Soak the feet into a basin of water, salt and aloe vera for about 5 mins. Follow that with a massage with her favorite essential oils such as lavender oil.
There you go folks, a very simple yet meaningful home spa you can do for your mothers on this Mother's Day. End the spa treatment with a kiss , a big hug and a bouquet of thank you for all her sacrifices and love all these while. Also, these spa treat will not only be valid on Mother's Day only but all year round when you want to surprise your mother or when thank you is too simple for what she had done.
Love,
Me.
