Spa Magazine DIY Beauty

Happy BCB Eco-Friday my loves!  Today I wanted to talk to you about one of my favorite sections from one of my favorite magazines.  Spa Magazine often times has a Spa Beauty section with easy-to-make, do-it-yourself at home beauty recipes.  I have personally tried many of them myself and find them to be the perfect fix for when you just don’t have the time or money to make it to the spa.  Now don’t get me wrong, as a spa professional I definitely think you should keep up your regular spa visits to get that professional treatment. But when you’re looking for a quick fix or just something to maintain your treatments at home, then you should definitely check out some of these recipes.

In Spa Magazine’s Jan/Feb issue, they mentioned some great facial recipes to help you get back that glow the winter months tend to take away.  For example, smash together about 2-3 figs and 1 tbsp of olive oil for a great exfoliating mask and leave it on for 5-10 minutes.  Or puree 1/2 peach with 1/2 cucumber and leave it on the face for about 20 minutes for the perfect tightening and brightening treatment.  With recipes as simple as this, making your own facial treatments at home can be a snap.

Head on over to spamagazine.com/diybeauty to get 13 more beauty recipes that cover everything from head to toe.  My faves are the Green Tea Toner, Moisture-Rich Lip Exfoliator and Revitalizing Foot Scrub.  And don’t forget to pick up this Mar/Apr issue out on stands now for a list of some great spa bath products you can use at home to extend the benefits of that blissful spa massage.

Until next time my loves…  xoxo
