Who says that you need to leave your house for a luxurious spa experience? With the right products and a little creativity, you can transform your bedroom and bathroom into a serene oasis in order to pamper yourself whenever your heart desires. Let’s dive into creating your very own at-home facial spa routine.
Setting The Mood
First things first: atmosphere. Dim the lights, light some scented candles, play soft music, and grab your favourite fluffy robe as you make your bedroom and bathroom a peaceful sanctuary. Taking a warm bath or shower beforehand helps to open your pores and relax your muscles ready for treatment.
Essential Facial Steps
- Cleanse: Start your treatment with a gentle cleanser to remove any makeup and impurities. Be sure to use lukewarm water to avoid irritating your skin.
- Exfoliate: Once or twice a week, exfoliate to remove dead skin cells.
- Tone: Toner helps to balance your skin’s pH and prep it for the following steps.
- Treat: Address specific concerns with a serum or mask. Look for ingredients such as hyaluronic acid for hydration, retinol for anti-aging and vitamin C for brightening.
- Moisturise: Seal in all the goodness with a rich moisturiser that is suitable for your skin type.
- Eye Cream: Don’t forget the delicate skin around your eyes! Apply a gentle eye cream to hydrate and reduce any puffiness.
DIY Face Masks
For a truly indulgent experience, why not try making your own face mask. Here are a few simple recipes to get you started:
- Hydrating Honey Mask: Mix honey with tumeric for a soothing, brightening and moisturising mask.
- Clarifying Clay Mask: Combine bentonite clay with water or apple cider vinegar for a deep-cleaning treatment.
Additional Tips
- Consistency Is Key: For optimal results, try to stick to a regular facial routine.
- Skin Consultation: If you have specific skin concerns, consider consulting a dermatologist or aesthetician for personalised advice.
- Patch Test: Before trying out a new product or DIY mask, remember to patch test it on a small area of skin to check for allergies.
Moor Spa Normal Skin Pack
I personally love the Moor Normal Skin Pack which is suitable for those with normal and / or combination skin. This delightful at-home spa treatment includes a 50ml Vibrant Cleanser, a 50ml Refreshing Toning Lotion, a 15ml Active Moisturiser and 50ml Refining Facial Mask and can be used 2-3 times per week to keep your skin looking and feeling its best.
My treatment begins with the Moor Spa Vibrant Cleanser, which contains herbal Moor water, and is ideal to use as a daily wash with gentle antiseptic and mildly astringent qualities. It leaves the skin feeling super soft and fresh, ready to be toned. The Refreshing Toner contains herbal Moor water, lavender and bergamot oil, which work together to enhance the skin tone and texture. You can spray it onto a cotton pad in order to massage the face and remove any excess cleanser prior to applying the facial mask.
With a damp brush, or your fingers, the 100% natural Refining Facial Mask contains pure herbal Moor and Moor Water from the peloid moors of European Moorlands which nourishes and cleanses the skin. The dark mask leaves the skin feeling super clean and hydrated and can be used across the face and neck areas. It’s recommended that you apply the mask for a couple of minutes at first, building up to 5mins with each use as skin quality improves, ensuring to wash it off before it dries out.
The final steps of this at-home treatment involve reapplying the toner to remove any excess mask, and to close the pores, before applying the Active Moisturiser. This luxurious active moisturiser contains herbal Moor water, aloe vera and comfrey to promote cell renewal and natural collagen production, leaving the skin beautifully soft and supple whilst helping to combat and reduce the visible signs of ageing. I also love how it contains UVA and UVB filters to protect the skin, with just a very small amount of product going such a long way.
Available in normal, dry, oily and combination skin packs, this at-home treatment is an absolute must-have for self love, and makes the ideal gift for loved ones or special occasions. Remember, self-care is essential. Turning your home into a mini-spa can be a wonderfully affordable way to relax, de-stress, and nourish your skin on a regular basis so that you can look and feel your very best, from the comfort of your own home, for many years to come!
