Have Your Own Christmas Spa Day

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at SAU chapter.

Have you ever heard of a Christmas spa day? Well, do you like Christmas? Do you like spas? Bam! Two amazing things combined in one! (Okay but it’s also a way to relax during the hectic time of the year.)

1.) Sugar Scrubs! (not those scrubs, nursing majors)

 

    DIY your own Christmas scrubs with sugar, essential oils, and essences! Learn how to make these delicious scrubs here!

2.) Fizzy Bath Salts

 

Follow this simple recipe. You need Epsom salt, dye, essential oil, baking soda, and citric acid!

3.) Set the mood with these DIY Peppermint Mason Jar Candles

 

You’ll need a candlewick, mason jar, peppermint oil, soy candle flakes, a pencil, and any embellishments you want to add! (as always, you can get the instructions here)

4.) Cool off with a DIY Peppermint Rose Marshmallow Face mask

 

The ingredients are a bit more complicated, but this idea is too enticing to pass up. You’ll need marshmallow root powder, French pink clay, dried rose petals, rose hip oil, and peppermint essential oil! Check it out here.

5.) Gingerbread Lip Balm

 

You’ll need beeswax, various essential oils, avocado oil, castor oil, and Shea butter. What’s great about this recipe is that you can make one for yourself, but also as gifts to others!

6.) Snowman in your bath?

 

Okay, yes please. Fill your tub up with bubbles and make yourself a snowman before jumping in! Light your peppermint candles around, put your face mask on, and enjoy your cozy night in!
