Having the spa come to you is better than going to a spa.Hosting an at- home spa sleepover will give you and your friends the chance to indulge in mani/pedis, refreshing facials and maybe even a relaxing massage at very little cost.Pick a date, stock up on spa supplies, invite your friends, and get ready to sleep in.
Step 1: A guest list can be made.
Because of space limitations, spa parties usually involve a few close friends.Everyone can fit in the "spa room" without feeling crowded.You can increase your guest list if you have more than one room devoted to the spa.
Step 2: It's convenient to choose a date.
When everyone is available, check with them to find a date when you know who you want to invite.It is a good idea to confirm with your parents, roommates, and siblings that it is okay to have a sleepover on the chosen date.The party should not be interrupted by their plans.If you don't want your siblings or roommates involved, ask them to stay in their rooms or go out for the night.It is fun to include everyone.You don't have to worry about them disrupting the party.
Step 3: The evening is a good time to plan.
The best parties have a plan.When you want your guests to arrive is up to you.You should make a schedule of what you will do, when and where it will take place.Everyone has a chance to do everything if you plan the evening.Be creative when planning activities.As long as you like, you can have as many or as few activities.If you want to do manicures, you can provide lots of polishes, nail decals, hand creams, and hand massages.A full-service spa might include manicures, facials, massages, meditation rooms, and a healthy-food café.
Step 4: There is a list of needed supplies.
You can make a list of everything you need for each activity once you have planned it.Some things you will give, but your guests can bring their own.You could ask them to bring their own robe, towels, and brushes, as well as their favorite lipgloss, candles and music.
Step 5: Send out invites.
Regular mail or email can be used to send invitations.Either way, choose spa-themed invites featuring a picture of a slipper, eye mask, nail polish bottle or other spa related graphics.The theme, date, time, location and what your guests should wear should be included.You should include the items you want them to bring.Let them know how to RSVP.You can quickly reach all of your friends with evite and digital invites.You can design an invitation, send it to friends, and tally responses in one place with several free online services.Private events and invitations can be sent via online communities, such as Facebook.
Step 6: You can make a store-run.
Now is the time for you to get your own supplies.The best prices can be found in large discount or warehouse stores, as well as beauty supply stores.Pick out some bright nail polishes, fun face masks, soothing tea bags, scented massage oils and other supplies for your planned activities.Try to recreate the perfect spa.You must have enough supplies for everyone.
Step 7: The spa should be created.
It is possible to turn your home into a relaxing spa.Creating a calm, quiet environment is the key.The lights should be dim.lavender and sandalwood are relaxing scents and can be placed around the rooms you will be using.Listen to the sounds of the sea or rain forest.You can serve pitchers of ice water with lemon or cucumber slices.Getting rid of stuff is a big part of creating a calm environment.Make sure your home is clean and organized so your guests don't feel overwhelmed by stuff.You can make a poster for each room to explain what's inside.There are many places where neck and shoulder massages can be done.There are a couple of straight-backed chairs available.
Step 8: They should give each other manis.
Pick out the manicure supplies.You will want to include bowls of warm water for soaking hands and feet.Your guests can choose from a variety of nail colors.The area will feel more like a salon if there is a clear top coat and quick-drying spray.
Step 9: It's time to give yourself and your friends a facial.
Prepare your skin by using a gentle exfoliant cream.Put a towel on your face and wring it out from the hot water.Follow with a mask.Use the same cloth you used to steam your face to remove the mask.Finish by massaging the skin with upward strokes.A clay mask is good for removing dirt from your skin.The masks are used to close the pores.There are honey masks on the market.All three types can be used to cleanse and nourish your face.Store-bought face masks can be homemade.Having recipes for your friends to make their own masks will provide an additional activity for the night.
Step 10: Fight puffy eyes by eating cucumbers.
After a long week of school or work, your friends will love a chance to lie down with cucumber slices on their eyelids.Beds, couches and air mattresses can be used as a relaxation table.The timer should be set for 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 11: Relax with a massage.
You can offer neck and shoulder massages as part of your spa experience.Some quick pointers can be found in the videos on YouTube.Remember that you want to massage soft tissue, not bones.It should not be painful to put pressure on the muscles.Everyone gets a chance to both receive and give a massage if they take turns acting as the masseuse.
Step 12: Provide healthy snacks.
Light, healthy snacks will be provided to your guests as part of the spa experience.A good combination is sliced vegetables and hummus.Fruit, nuts, cheese and crackers are good choices.To make sure no one is allergic to the food you are serving, be sure to check with your guests.
Step 13: Relax with entertainment.
You will want to do something after you've finished your spa activities.It's always good to see light, romantic-comedy movies.You can check out what TV shows are available on the internet.There is a lot of fun provided by Charades, board games, and trivia contests.
Step 14: New hair techniques can be learned.
You might want to learn a few new hair styles after finishing your nails and facials.You can experiment with a new style with long or short hair.Don't cut or die your hair because you might regret it.This is a good time to have fun.
