Simple Home Spa at Sunday Afternoon

Home SpaIf you don’t have spacious nicely decorated room & bathroom with bathrub, then you should forget about doing any home spa.

Oh, you are wrong. See how I start my home spa with very little money. There are several things that I have get recently:

1. Grab 2 bottle of essential oil – lavendar & bergemot, at 50% off from the BodyShop warehouse sale about a month ago, they also give me 2 coconut body scrub sample for trial.

2. Hubby pick up a stone for me to put on top of the stand, as lit up the fire, the stone will be heated, which will make it a unique natural burner.

So indulge with all the things I have at home and just bought from warehouse sale.

1. Set up the burner, put 2-3 drops of my favourate lavendar essential oil on the stone
2. Play the “Most Relaxing Music” CD I have in my collection
3. Sitting in the lotus position to meditate for about 15 mins, then you will start relax your body
4. Bring along the coconut body scrub to the bathroom, carefully scrub every part of my body, and enjoying the coconut scents
5. Once finish the scrub, clean the body and bath. Then go back to the room again.
6. Prepare yourself a hot tea, aroma hot tea will be best choice, enjoying the music while sipping the tea

Isn’t it a simple and less cost home spa? This is how I spend my Sunday afternoon to unwind and destress myself.

Indulge with Hot Stone Massage

I love Hot Stone Massage. I will ask for Hot Stone Massage while I visit the spa that I used to go. It is really a very nice massage that come with warm feeling for person like me, as I have cold hand and feet most of the time.

Hot Stone Massage

What so special about this hot stone massage? The therapist will heated the stones in the water about 54–63°C. All the stone will be placed at specific points on the back, in the palms of the hand, or between the toes. So the heat of the stone will warms and relaxes the muscles, which will improves circulation and calms the nervous system. After that, the therapist will start the massage with oil.

It is a good way to destress and improve our blood circulation. Why do we need to destress and improve our blood circulation?

1. Stress is the major caused of the hormone imbalance, that will bring out the scary breakout problem.

2. Poor circulation will make our skin dry and dull, sure we don’t want that.

Pamper yourself with this Hot Stone Massage atleast once a month, to fresh your mind and soul, to bring out the radiant skin.

Beauty Tip #8 Trim Fat Bulges with Enzymes

Lipase, lipolytic enzyme, aids the body in breaking down fats. Without this “fat-splitting” enzyme, fat stagnates and accumilates around the waist, hips and buttocks. Enzymes are also being used up faster during illnesses, stressful times, extreme hot or cold weather, lifestyle habits such as drinking coffee and strenuous exercise. This causes a decline in the body’s enzymes level.

The unripe Green Papaya is a rich source of papain, and also contains lipase. Papain enzyme works on inactive cells (protein), which are predominantly found in areas of cellulite. Papain is able to break down these cells into other amino acids, for instance lipase. The lipases play a major role in helping to burn existing fat and increasing the rate of metabolism. It has been used for centuries, and helps to promote a slim healthy body and reduce the appearance of cellulite.

Beauty Tip #4 Ultrasonic & Ion Beauty Stimulator

I got my Ultrasonic & Ion Beauty Stimulator from Taiwan this year. This is the latest product come with ultrasonic and ionic funtion, which is selling like hot cake after recommended in taiwan TV show. It is very important to own this weapon for aging fighting, it will restoring young and radiant skin by ultrasound vibration. A ultrasonic facial treatment can cost about SGD100-200 each session, which is very costly. So, with this secret weapon, I can do facial treatment at home whenever I want, that is really a big saving.

How it works? It produces sound waves and penetrate into deep skin. By stimulate the area, it bring more nutrients and oxygen for healing and producing collagen, and definitely rejuvenate your skin with out any plastic surgery.

Negative ions cleans thoroughly the pores. Blockage of pores is the main cause of dilatation and roughage of the pores and darkening of skin and prevents assimilation of nutrients into dermal cells. The first step in skin care-cleansing is the most important. Most cleansing products can only remove dust on skin surface and are powerless to clean the dirt and grease deep down in the pores. The highly energized negative ions emitted from the product can soften the dir deep down in the pores and make the pores free of blockage.

Positive ions cause deep down infusion of nutrients. Assimilation function of fatigued skin and aging cells is remarkably reduced causing the essential components of skin care products pile up on skin surface and unable actually nourish the dermis dells. skin is devoid of luster when the cells are undernourished. The positive ions can induce nutrients to penetrate deep into the skin, facilitate the cells, assimilation of water and nutrients causing the whitening factors and nutrients enter the skin, retain the nutrients making the skin lustrous, lighter in color and invigorated.

Infrared rays promotes metabolism. Dryness, pollution and fatigue cause over-stress of the skin and precipitation of melanin, piling up of toxins causing the skin lusterless, darkening in color, formation of freckles, brownish plaques, etc. Safe warming up by infrared rays cause free circulation of the capillaries, acceleration of metabolism, expulsion of toxins, prophylaxis against aging of the cells and skin and forming of wrinkles and blemishes. Physical vibration massages the skin.

Gentle vibration produced by safe and weak electric current massages the skin through stimulation of outpoints, constriction of pores, cohering the interstitial molecules between the cells, tightening of the epidermis and dermis, hence increasing elasticity of the skin, slowing down aging and wrinkle formation.
