Pamper evening essentials

So we all need a bit of me time occasionally and what better than a pamper evening. The best way to start a pamper night is with a nice relaxing hot bath make sure you use all your nice products for example a bath bomb my favourite ones are by Lush© recommend 'Think Pink' it will turn your bath water beautiful deep pink with small confetti hearts in it. A hot bath will relax your muscles and calm your mind, some enjoy reading or watching something but you might just want to lay there.
Whilst in your bath you could apply a face mask but preferably not a self heating one. if you use a lot of heat or product in your hair a hair mask will replenish and heal your hair from the week. 

Once you get out the bath moisturising is never a bad idea - Vaseline body lotion is amazing can be found in nearly all drugstores and large supermarkets.


This would be the time to relax put on a favourite movie or T.V show and drink a nice hot drink with a hot water bottle and your favourite snack

. A pamper evening is always something fun to do when you have your friends over when you can all relax together or before prom to get yourself looking all healthy and glowing !
