Wellness at home: This day is mine alone!
Sugar and chocolate for the skin
A true feast for the senses are mild shower scrubs with a mix of cane sugar, vanilla and lemon extracts. Not only smells delicious, but also does a lot for skin care. The golden brown sugar is rich in caring vitamins and minerals. The fine crystals gently rid the skin of horny scales and provide them with moisture. Delicious alternative: a body scrub with chocolate and essential oils. Crushed cocoa and walnut shells smooth the skin and make you happy all around. Robust skin also tolerates exfoliation with a loofah glove. Then take a shower and go to the tub to relax.
Bathing like Pretty Woman
A warm bath is much more than a mere cleansing, it is pure relaxation. Joints are relieved, muscles relaxed, and, like a meditation, all senses are sharpened. Before starting, however, a few feel-good rules should be observed: candles and beautiful music provide the right feel-good atmosphere. Warmed bath towels later facilitate the exit from the tub. If you want to feel like "Pretty Woman" like Julia Roberts, it's best to take a bubble bath. If additional oil is added, it is also well tolerated by dry skin. Especially soothing is the bath in the combination with essential oils. They deposit like a fine film on the skin surface and get into the nose via steam and on to the emotional center. Make bath salts with wild rose or lavender, vitalize grapefruit or ginger, Sensitive can also fill the tub with a milk bath? a proven cosmetic in the times of Cleopatra in ancient Egypt. Milk sugar and milk fat are great moisturizers, have a balancing and soothing effect.
Smell of rose and vanilla
After bath or shower, the skin needs a strong nurturing episode. The own fats are washed out by the warm water. Ideal: a fragrant oil. This is well absorbed by the moist skin and includes a lot of moisture. Incidentally, it can also be massaged perfectly. How about, for example, with vanilla? The pod has a sensual sweet scent and a calming and warming effect. Addictiveness not excluded. Another pampering classic: a body cream with rose extracts. Depending on the country of origin, the rose oil smells soft, floral or spicy, invigorates the body or relaxes. Above all, it should tighten and smooth the skin.
Masks let the complexion shine again
After the bath, the skin is perfectly prepared for a mask, because it is warm, well supplied with blood and can absorb the active ingredients much better. Dry complexion is pleased with facial masks with intensive moisturizers such as shea butter (karité) and bamboo. Normal skin is the usual day care. By the way: thick cream masks have no place around the eye because they can spread and irritate the conjunctiva. Better: apply active ingredient-saturated (and self-adhesive) gel pads, which precisely inject hydrocare into the skin. They are also available, for example, with refreshing cucumber extracts. And while you're at it, the décolleté also gets a care extra. Because similar to the eye area, the décolleté skin is very fine, has hardly any fatty tissue and is usually neglected. Good are special creams with vegetable oils that smooth and refine the complexion. First heat a small amount of cream in your hands, then massage in circular motions from the breast to the top of the chin, without forgetting the neck. Alternative: apply a general purpose cream thick and cover with cling film. As long as the mask on face and cleavage retracts (about 20 minutes), it can relax wonderfully on the sofa.
Shimmer on the skin
The pure luxury is a body powder: Simply spread with a soft tassel transparent powder with extra lots of shimmering particles on the cleavage and arms. Nice side effect: The shimmer plays with the light and skilfully conceals small bumps and wrinkles. It gets even more sensual when the powder smells fresh of honey and fruits.
Velvety lips with peeling and balm
A radiant smile makes you beautiful, and some extra care for the lips can still wonderfully support: Since the thin lip skin has no own sebaceous glands, which provide suppleness, it can hardly protect itself, is quickly rough and cracked. A gentle lip peeling with a special exfoliating pencil gently removes loose scales and nourishes with jojoba oil or cocoa butter. Alternative: go over the lips with a soft toothbrush without pressure and then apply care with cocoa butter or panthenol.
Take time for the manicure
You are constantly in the limelight and quickly become brittle and irritable when they are not getting enough attention? hands. A hand peel with salt from the Dead Sea and natural softeners such as sesame or avocado oil makes them tender again. Then gently push the cuticle back with wooden sticks or cloth and file the nails with a sandpaper file from the outside to the middle. Polishing files bring the nails to a shine. The smoother (and drier) the nail surface, the better the paint will last. And why not set a highlight? A bright red nail polish will make your hands look glamorous in no time and perfectly round off the devastating ego program.
Feet become a seductive eye-catcher
Also on the feet looks red nail polish breathtaking - as far as the nails are well maintained there. This is how it works: pumice granules and fruit acids loosen rough horns. Then massage in rich foot cream. The nails can be shortened well with a nail nipper. A mineral file then brings them into shape. Are the nails slightly yellowed? In a bubble bath with lemon and oxygen you can lighten it. A layer of colorless base coat protects against discoloration. Wait about 20 minutes before applying the red paint.
Happy to the tips
The three-step program for beautiful hair goes like this: A deep cleansing with caring wheat proteins removes residues of styling products. Then the body care. It feeds on coconut extracts, for example, and is massaged into washed hair. Wrap warmed towel around your head, wait five minutes and then rinse thoroughly. A glow, for example, with excerpts from chamomile, algae and carrots ensures shine. It seals the cuticle and makes the hair easy to comb. Too much care for fine hair? Then take a cream-gel mask or a spray of panthenol that does not complain the hair and kitten porous areas.

Switch off and get rid of stress, this is one of the most reliable Schoenmacher. Breaks create mental freedom, bring new energy and make you creative. So, get on the sofa and relax, maybe with a sip of champagne? The time-out can also be sweetened with aroma candles and room sprays. Or rather early in bed? Matching is the pair of sleeping glasses worn by Audrey Hepburn aka Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany. And who really wants to get out? fresh air is a pure beauty booster!
