  We all need a bit of me-time to relax, unwind, and enjoy a little pampering. You don’t have to pay a lot of money to get the amazing experiences of a spa if you create your own at home. With a few simple tweaks and tips, you can enjoy your very own at-home spa for the perfect way to practice a little bit of self-care. We’ve put together an awesome list of ideas to help you relax and create a DIY spa that will have you feeling calm and serene. 

Set the mood in order to create your very own spa at home. From finding the perfect spa space to supplies and lighting, here are some tips to get you started on your journey to total relaxation. 

Set up Your Space 

Start by choosing where you want your at-home spa to be. It can be your master bathroom or just a spare room where you can spend time in peace and quiet. A room with a view is another great option to help you get some sunshine and enjoy a little bit of nature as you unwind. 

Once you’ve chosen your space, use some relaxing products like essential oils, a bottle of bubble bath, fresh flower fragrance pillows, or a vase filled with a bouquet of fresh flowers. Choose scents that have a calming effect, such as lavender, eucalyptus, and chamomile. 

Our LLIO Bath & Body Oil set has a range of healing and calming ingredients to help you find your higher-self, get some beauty sleep, love yourself and find your magic centre.  

Gather Supplies 

Our Sweet Dreams Sleep Spray helps you feel relaxed and will aid you to drift off to a deep restorative sleep and spiritually recharge. Spritz Llio’s Sweet Dreams blend of soothing lavender true, geranium, deep vetiver and rosewood onto your pillow. Lavender True is a natural sleep aid that soothes the soul, helping you to relax and unwind.   

A cup of hot tea is a great way to help you relax. Gather some of your favourite herbs to make tea, a cute kettle, and your favourite mug so you can sip your cares away. 

Look for ingredients to make your own DIY mask. A facial mask can soothe your skin and help you feel calm and relaxed. 

Organise all of your favourite spa goodies in a cute basket and keep them in your special space. This will make it easy for you to find everything you need so you can start relaxing right away. 

Adjust the Lighting 

Bright light might not make you feel relaxed, so dim the lights for a soothing ambience.

Light a scented candle before you hop in the shower or tub. This simple act will make daily bathing more relaxing, even when you don’t have time for a full spa day. Turn off the overhead lights so you can bask in the candle’s illuminating glow. 

Create a Playlist 

Music has an incredible ability to calm the nerves, so make a custom playlist featuring some of your favourite songs to help you chill. 

You can find spa music that is specially made to help you feel calm and tranquil. Use this music as you relax. 

Add a Bluetooth speaker to your spa room so you can change tracks from your smartphone and won’t need to get up and walk over to the stereo. 

 

Dress for the Occasion 

Spritz away impurities and restore peace of mind with our Crystal-Clear Lapis Lazuli Hand Sanitiser. To make your cleansing routine a touch more glamorous, our sanitising hand scent is charged with the healing and protective properties of deep blue Lapis Lazuli gemstones, clearing negativity and restoring balance. 

Find a fabulous robe that you can wear in your at-home spa. Silk robes are super-soft, lightweight, and perfect for recreating an authentic spa experience. 

Wear a comfy pair of slippers you can put on and take off whenever you want to keep your feet cushioned and your mood elevated. 

Invest in a quality pair of pyjamas. A two-piece set with a top and bottoms is a great choice, or you can buy a nightgown so you can go from your spa right to bed.
