something a little different this coin purse tuesday, with market day approaching fast and retailers busy in preparation, I thought something a little more calming and serene might be nice today.
so why not open your fridge or your pantry and make your own little recipe of loveliness and treat your body to a relaxing homemade foot bath or sugar body scrub. yes that's right in your pantry will be all you need to make you feel like new again, without actually spending a cent!

Bliss Foot bath
Fill a large bowl or bucket with warm water and a handful of Epsom salts or sea salt. Add a few drops of essential oil - eucalyptus, lavender or rosemary. Soak your feet for 10 minutes to help release toxins, control bacteria and soften rough skin.

Sugar Body Scrub
Mix 1/2 cup (110g) of white sugar with 1/4 cup (60ml) of almond oil or olive oil. Massage over skin before you take a shower.

Enjoy! Pamper! Relax!
