How to turn your bathroom into a spa

After a long day at work, there’s nothing better for your body and mind than a spa visit and during a recent facial at Sk:n clinic we got to thinking about how you can add a spa feeling to your bathroom.

Bathrooms offer a private space where you can take a relaxing shower or warm bath to de-stress and relax. It only takes a few elements to evoke that spa-like atmosphere in your home.

Firstly de-clutter as a clear and clean bathroom will instantly make the space feel bigger and more relaxing. Bring in natural earth tones to draw the mind to nature, items such a rustic wooden stool, plants or painting a wall in a muted green tone will add to that spa-like feeling.

Dim the lights, adding dimmer switches or lots of candles will create a sense of zen and calm. Display some of your favourite products, while you want the clutter to be tidied away, a few pretty bottle and lotions on display will make you want to jump into the bath and start pampering.

Smell is essential when evoking the senses, a scented candle, diffuser or some essential oils will help relax your body and mind. Now its time lay back, close your eyes and take a deep breath in.
