Time for some serious pampering. Cleanse your face and pat dry. Apply a facemask, making sure you've also covered your neck and decolletage. Return to your spa room and lie down on comfortable bedding, making sure your back and neck are well supported. Focus on your breathing. With each breath, focus on a different body part. For instance, on your first breath, focus on releasing all tension in your right foot. On your next breath, move your focus to your calf, and repeat the same relaxation thought.

It's early, but it's time to hop into bed. Listen to some music or read for about twenty minutes before setting these aside and turning off the light. Enjoy a restful night's sleep and look forward to a new, revitalised you tomorrow morning! |
Include the ingredients you'll need for your face mask and ensure you have enough cleansers and toners for your beauty treatments.
