The Cure for Stress

Yes, even teens get stressed. We have to deal with so much drama. Well, I realized that a spa day helps out a lot! But, I don't go to a spa I have my own spa day at home. :)


For a spa day you will need to plan out a little while before, so you won't be rushing around. If you want, you can invite a few friends over and it can be a party.

Face Mask
You can purchase a face mask, or you can make one. It really doesn't matter. If you choose to purchase your then make sure that it is made from natural ingredients, not chemicals. If don't want to spend your money on that then you can make your own. It is pretty simple. Here are the ones I've tried. Keep in mind that they are a little messy. (Sometimes I leave the masks longer. You can leave it on for however long you want)

Honey, yogurt banana mask
Mix together 1/2 banana,
2 tablespoons of plain yogurt,
and 1 tablespoon of honey together
Leave on for 15-20 minutes then with cool or warm water.

Honey, orange (great for pimples)
Mix together 2 tablespoons of honey,
and a few drops of fresh orange juice together.
Leave on for 15-20 minutes then rinse of with cool or warm water.


Feet
For feet you should soak your feet in warm or hot water. If you don't have a foot soak then find something that is big enough for your feet to rest comfortably. If you have dry skin then put a little bit of bath beads or Epsom salt in the water. Your feet will be very soft! Another thing a friend and I tried was a foot mask. We bought one at the store. It worked great. But normally, I use the simpler way and put some lotion on my feet.

Nails
For nails you paint your nails as usual. I heard somewhere that if you push your cuticles back, then you should dip your nails in some milk, first. It should make the cuticles soft. I haven't tried this because I only paint my nails.

Bath
If you are having a spa day by your self then a warm bath, with a candle near by is very relaxing.

Decorating
Clean the room or rooms you are using. (If they are dirty) If you want put some flowers in the room. Because I don't have flowers I put scented candles around the room, and light an incent. That way the room smells great! You want the room to feel relaxing.
