Homemade Spa Remedies

Giving yourself a spa day at home is as easy as mixing up an aromatic skin rub, finding a quiet and peaceful part of your house, and commencing with the pampering. There are many tried and true recipes on the Internet and in spa centered books that you can make easily using inexpensive ingredients. Soaps, lotions, and exfoliants can all be made at home and used for do-it-yourself spa days.

A good place to start is with a sugar or salt based body scrub. These scrubs can be used once or twice a week to gently remove dead skin and cleanse pores. Often mixed using essential oils they can provide an invigorating experience for your skin combined with relaxing aromatherapy. Since salt and sugar dissolve in water, you do not need to worry about clogging your drains.
