Perfect summer pamper



I love setting aside a pamper evening every so often, it makes you feel great especially after a long week at work. I haven't featured beauty on my blog for a while so today I thought I would write about my summer pamper essentials...



+ BODY

Cocoa Brown, Tough Stuff scrub
I reviewed this a few posts back so won't go too much into it again but I absoslutley love this scrub. It leaves your skin feeling super smooth and works great on all those problem areas too such as the elbows and knees. I wish they made this scrub in a bigger tub though as I go through it quite quickly.

Sanctuary Spa, Luxurious Body butter
This is a recent addition of mine and the title of it is totally on point - it really does feel oh so luxurious. This intensive body butter leaves your skin feeling so nourished and it actually smells amazing too thanks to main ingredients: cocoa butter and shea butter. This body butter is perfect for when you just get out of the bath or shower.

I've lost count of how many times I have featured this self tan on my blog and I've also lost count of how many I have purchased. I have tried a fair few but this one really is the only one I have carried on using. 

+ FACE

Another favourite of mine. I personally feel that no pamper night is complete without a mask of some sort. As someone who suffers from problem skin occasionally, this is the only mask that doesn't break me out. I absolutely love the way it makes your skin feel after application, so smooth. It can also be used as a scrub or a cleanser. Love, love, love!

I really love the idea behind this product and again it just feels so luxurious. This product contains a mixture of pure oils and once applied to the skin it restores the oils and makes the skin look and feel more plump. You only need the smallest amount and you apply it by massaging it onto the skin in an upward motion. This is better applied at night in my opinion, just before you go to bed.

+ HAIR

This was raved about SO much a few years ago and a lot of us still swear by it. I have tried so many hair masks in the past but nothing makes my hair feel as healthy and well conditioned as this hair oil. I feel it works best when you apply it to slightly damp hair. Again, you only need the smallest amount and all you do is massage it through the ends of your hair. It really makes your hair feel silky smooth.

+ NAILS

You could use any nail polish of course but my all time fave is definitely Pink Flamingo. This colour makes me so happy and bright and is perfect for the summer.

You could of course opt for a spa treatment instead, not only will the treatment feel extra luxurious but sometimes it's nice to leave it to the experts. A new spa that recently opened in Harrods is the Urban Retreat Beautique. They offer all sorts of treatments ranging from facials to hair treatments and even permanent makeup. 

I am really wanting to plan a trip to London sometime this year so am hoping to pay a visit; what interested me particularly is the Essie nail bar, the only one to exist in the UK. I am obsessed with Essie so getting a manicure at this purpose built nail bar would be pretty sweet. Think of all the pastel colours?! Win. In addition to this I really want to try out the Leonor Greyl treatment, this treatment uses all natural products free from parabens, SLS and silicones and works to deeply nourish and repair not only your hair but scalp too.

Anyways let me know what you think of this post, do you have any particular products you like to use on a pamper night?
