incorporating
spa treatments into our
lives as a couple. We find that it is
a great way for us to
relax and make
each other
feel special. However, we
would like to have a more structure to
our
spa routine. Right now we just do
it whenever we feel like and have the
time. Please help us put together a
spa plan.

Frequency |
Spa treatments and activities |
|
Daily |
Shower with a
moisturizing soap or gel.
Use a feet file to
exfoliate the
rough areas of your feet after
the shower (it takes 2 minutes
or less).
Use a
nail orange stick to push
your cuticles and apply cream
thereafter.
Apply a rich body lotion or
cream over your whole body
immediately after the shower to
seal in the moisture.
Buy or make you own
eye
mask and
put in on your eyes for 2
minutes or more. It is so
relaxing. |

Body-polish
treatment with homemade or store

Put on a face mask.
Do a
mini spa manicure.
Optional: take an

Take 10 minutes to lie down on a
