Valentine's Day Pampering


So I know Valentine’s Day can be a little sad if you’re single, so I thought I would give you all an idea for Valentine’s. Of course you can go out with friends, but not everyone wants to do that especially when Valentine’s falls on a Tuesday. So if you’re single and were planning on staying in this year, here’s an idea. Instead of wallowing about not having a date…spend the time pampering yourself. Use the night to relax and recharge and celebrate being you. Here are some ideas:

Take the time to put a deep conditioner or some oil in your hair and let it sit for a while before showering it out (or overnight if you shower in the morning).

Go ahead and give yourself a mini facial by steaming your face over a bowl of water, cleansing, exfoliating, using a mask, and moisturizing.

Give yourself a manicure and a pedicure.

Do a whole body exfoliation in the shower and then slather on some body lotion or self-tanner if you use it.

Take a bath.

Read a good book or watch a movie.

Cuddle up in a blanket and drink some tea.

Make an amazing dinner for yourself.

I hope that this gave you all some ideas for Valentine’s Day. If you are single try to use the day to de-stress and recharge. Remember that you are amazing and there are people who love you whether you have a significant other or not. Also, think about how stressful going out on Valentine’s can actually be. Sometimes it is world’s better to just spend the night by yourself doing all of the things you want to do, but maybe don’t always have the time to do. And hey, just imagine how great you will look the next day if you spend the time taking care of yourself.

P.S. If you have a date this year you can still do these things either in preparation for your date or just anytime you need some “me” time.
