Hi guys,
Winter is the
perfect season to get your pamper nights in. The horrible rain, chill in the
air, snow, central heating and pollution really do a number on my skin so I am
up my pamper nights to three rather than two. I have a bath almost every night
and it is more to heat me up but I usually through in some Johnsons Baby Bath (£1.99)
to give me silky soft skin or Radox Bath Salts (£1.05) to soothe my muscles but on
pamper nights, I through in a luscious Lush bath bomb such as Honey Bee (£3.50) to
start the night off well. This bath bomb has a trio of honey, aloe vera and rhassoul
mud which thoroughly cleanses and soothes.
Once I am well
and truly heated up I get to work on my skin. I start off with The Body Shop Glazed Apple Body Polish (£10) which exfoliates my skin and
leaves me smelling of Christmas. I have a full review which you can find here.
I then wash the rest of my body and dry myself off before slipping into some
warm and comfy pyjamas before getting to work on my face.
I cleanse my
skin with the Alpha H Balancing Cleanser (£25) to wash off that days makeup. I
then add a little more to my Magnitone
and give my skin a deep clean. Whilst my skin is still damp, I apply the
Sanctuary Spa Thermal Detox Mask (£10) and leave on for a good 15 minutes to
draw out the impurities in my skin. Once I have removed this with a damp face
cloth I use a moisturising mask such as the Una Brennan Rose Moisture Mask (£8.99)
to infuse my skin with much needed hydration. I leave this on for about 30
minutes or so. I have been using the Omorovicza Gold Hydralifting Mask (£110) as I got a couple of samples from a
recent order with Cult Beauty and I have to say, it’s wonderful. It helps to
plump my skin and hydrate it. It is very expensive so I don’t think I would buy
a full size of this but it has been a nice treat. i thought i would try this
out. After the masks have been removed, I move onto a skin treatment such as Alpha H Liquid Gold (£33.50) or Peter
Thomas Roth Glycolic Acid 10% Toning Complex (£27).
I don’t normally
use a moisturiser after this step as I don’t want the treatment to be disrupted
while it works but if my skin feels a little sensitive then I will throw on a
little Nivea Crème (£0.95) to soothe my skin. I always finish off with the Nivea Raspberry Rose Lip Butter (£2.05) to hydrate my lips and then I pour myself a nice glass of
red wine or a cup or peppermint tea, depending on how I feel.
What
products are in your perfect pamper night?
Have you
tried any of these before?
The honey bee bath bomb from lush was the first one I tried and I loved it x

It is sooo good isnt it xx
DeleteLove the idea of doing everything you mentioned above but honestly I've only ever tried the lip balm. It's really nice. I don't usually run baths for myself. My idea of pampering myself is using a face mask while doing my nails. To relax I usually read blogs or a book.
