I don't know about you, but there are days when I am one dog-tired Workerette. Over the past few weeks I've dealt with a lot of stressful issues that are still not all resolved, and boy, did I need a break! Since that won't be happening for a few days, last night I took a few extra minutes to pamper myself without losing out on too much (much-needed) sleep. Try these ideas on for size next time you need a few minutes for yourself:
- Biore offers a self-heating mask that takes (literally) about three minutes to use and remove. I happen to have rosacea, which means I can't use many abrasive or drying masks...this one I love!
- The Body Shop makes absolutely wonderful body scrubs and companion shower gels, lotions and body butters. My personal favorite right now is their Cocoa Butter Body Scrub. Even if you don't have time to do an all-over exfoliation, use this scrub to give yourself a quick foot rub (which will also mean a nice pampering for your hands). Perfect prep for sandal weather!
- Take showers at night? Try using candlelight instead of harsh bathroom lights. Lisa Barthuly of Homestead Originals sent me some lovely Rose Bouquet scented tealights that I put to use in my bathroom.
You can even tackle all of these in one sitting. Don't you feel pampered, relaxed and efficient? Fantastic!
