I’m not good at pampering myself. It’s not that I don’t enjoy it, because who doesn’t, but really more that I never take the time to just do it! I’ll treat myself to a facial a couple times of year, but that’s really it. Sad, but true.

When Hanes Hosiery sent me this box full of spa at home goodies, I was thrilled to take an afternoon and just chill out. I got lucky a few weekends ago when the neighbors invited Oliver to go to Michigan with them and spent a good portion of my day in my PJs on the couch. After I was feeling good and relaxed the spa time began.

I started by taking off my old nail polish and then applied the face mask. After sitting in quietly on my couch while it dried, I hopped in the shower to rinse it off and then use the foot scrub and pumice stone. Since I almost never get pedicures, my feet felt amazing after that and the scrub smelled awesome. I’ve also realized that I need to make face masks a weekly tradition. My skin felt so much smoother and refreshed!

I retired back to the couch to paint my nails and put the rolling foot massager to work. I laid around on the couch for quite some time after that with a cup of tea and probably dozed off a few times. It was such a nice afternoon and good to take some time for myself. Thanks again Hanes! You reminded me that I need to do this more often and that it’s simple to do at home!
