Everything You Need for an Affordable, At-Home Spa Day

A bubble bath is a foolproof way to guarantee you'll float away into relaxation. Pour this luxurious, sweetly scented product into your tub to help forget the week's stresses. 

When the going gets rough, cuticles often end up a victim of the stress. If you've chewed yours away or simply haven't had time to squeeze in a manicure, your at-home spa day is your opportunity to remedy the situation. Apply this cream to loosen up excess cuticles, and rinse it away with soapy water. Your nails will look neater and healthier instantly. 

If you're a manicure addict and the regular removal of gel or acrylic nails has left your actual nails weak and brittle, a quick fix is to apply two generous coats of a strengthener. Since your spa day is just as much a mental detox as it is a beauty one, we suggest painting this on while catching up on your Netflix queue. 

Chances are if you often hit snooze on a weekday, you're not going to have the time to properly exfoliate. An at-home spa day is the perfect opportunity to give dry, flaky skin some much-needed TLC. This natural body scrub sloughs off dead skin without over-stripping. 

Whether or not you want to admit it, there's something oddly gratifying about pulling off a blackhead strip and seeing all the gunk you just unclogged from your pores. This drugstore staple removes dirt and oil buildup from your pores and prevents future blackheads from forming. 

A day of beauty R&R is a great detox for your mind, but be sure to include a mask as part of your pampering to deeply cleanse your complexion. Freeman's charcoal-based version lifts away the impurities, dirt, and oil that are common causes of breakouts. 

Whether your hair is dry from color damage or heat styling, a nourshing macademia oil-infused mask is just the cure for your brittle tresses. Leave it on for 3 to 5 minutes after shampooing to moisturize and mend stressed strands. 

PSA: We're in the home stretch to sandal season. Chances are winter has left your feet in less than stellar shape and nowhere near ready to be seen by the rest of the world. PediSpa's exfoliating foot mask whips feet back into shape by softening and smoothing skin while peeling away callus buildup.
