- Set the mood by lighting you favourite candles. Ours are from Jo Malone and Crabtree & Evelyn.
- Run a warm bath, and add a bath soak, fizz or bubbles of your choice. We love almost anything from Lush – they have the most amazing collection of bath treats.
- Next give your face an exfoliation before applying a face mask for your skin type. We use Clarins Gentle Peeling Smooth Away cream, R340. REN’s Clarity Restoring Mask, R420 is great for oily and blemish prone skin, and Vichy’s Aqualia Thermal Mask, R230 works a treat on dry, dull skins.
- Wet you hair, and apply a rich hair mask. Pop a shower cap over the top, and let the steam work the mask deeper into the hair. Try L’Oreal Professional Absolut Repair Masque, R250.
- Soak for a few minutes before giving your whole body a good scrub either with an exfoliating mitt or with a grainy scrub like Woolworths Cashmere Body Scrub, R49.95.
- After soaking for 30 minutes, rinse everything off. We like to shower after a bath like this, as there is so much product on the bath water.
- Pat you body dry, and apply a nourishing body cream or lotion. We love Vaseline’s new Intensive Care range, R22.99 – R38.99.
