There is such a big movement towards designer gifts these days and one such gift that is particularly appreciated by women is to receiver a designer home spa package.
With all the work and stress that the holidays entail most of us women would love to get away from it all and be pampered for a few hours. However, with the economy the way it is, few of us can afford such a luxurious get away. So, why not bring that luxury to a deserving woman on your Christmas shopping list by creating a wonderful designer spa basket just for them.
Turkish Towels
One of the very best parts of a spa experience are those wonderfully thick and soft Turkish towels. They give you that pampered feeling like no other towel on the market can. Every designer spa package should contain at least one large thick Turkish towel.
Hair Wrap
A hair wrap is essential to keep your hair off your face while applying facials or face creams. A good hair wrap will add to that spa feeling and help make the home spa feel a little more special.
Face Cream and Cleanser
Your spa package should contain at least one good facial cleanser and a moisturizing face cream. For a truly wonderful designer package you can make these yourself or purchase a good brand from your local shopping center.
Foot Care Products
Your package should also include foot care products. An exfoliating foot cream, a cream that softens feet, and perhaps a nice refreshing foot soak.
Bath salts
Make sure you include a relaxing bath salt with your spa package. Rose or lavender has a wonderful smell and contains relaxing properties that will help give that completely pampered feeling.
Skin Oil
Including an after bath oil or cream that will help to keep the skin glowing and soft will add to the sense of well being. Bath creams with a touch of sparkle are especially nice when included in your home spa package.
Nail Care Set
A small but complete nail care set is must. Be sure the set includes a nail-brush, cuticle board, file and clippers You might also want to include a pair of toe nail clippers as well.
Clear Nail Polish
Clear nail polish applied to the finger and toe nails after a bath makes the nails look healthier and gives them a bit of a shine. Including a bottle of clear nail polish with the home spa will help to give the finishing touches on your package.
Candles, Reading material, and Music
To round out your home spa package you might want to include a couple of scented candles, a book or a favorite magazine, and some soft quiet music to help create the atmosphere of escape.
Additional touches
Some additional touches you might want to include in your spa package may be a certificate of free babysitting so the recipient of your gift can linger in her home spa without worrying about children knocking on the door the baby waking up.
A Small bottle of wine or a favorite juice and a small wine glass that can be enjoyed in the bath.
Some flowers that can be floated in the tub giving the spa a true feeling of luxury.
Giving a home spa to that special someone this year just might be the ideal gift for the woman who never takes time for herself. The feeling of being pampered will last long after the bath is completed and she will always remember the person who gave her a wonderful and relaxing afternoon.
