pick up spa type stuff to give in bags for your guests as party favors- flip flops, eye mask, nail polish, bath stuff- look at the dollar store first they always have lots of good finds!.
borrow spa equpment from ladies in your family like- handheld massagers, parafin wax baths, facial steamers, anything thye have that is spa related!.
for decorations try to make it dark and relaxing, or all white and spa like- maybe have a little water fountain going, a small table of snacks and drinks- fresh fruit, veggie wraps, veggies and dip, fruit smoothies!.!.!.!.anything healthy pretty much!
do nails, give facials, body and hair treatments- maybe even pick up a shaort instuction video on yoga or pilates or something like that!.
there really aren't any spa games to play- any fun board game would be fine after all your spa activities!.
here are some recipes for facials and stuff
AVOCADO CARROT CREAM MASK
This mask combines avocados, which are rich in Vitamin E, with carrots, which are high in beta-carotene and antioxidants, and cream, which is high in calcium and protein!. These ingredients will rebuild skin collagen, improve tone and texture, and fade age spots!.
1 avocado, mashed
1 carrot, cooked and mashed
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 egg, beaten
3 tablespoons honey
Combine all ingredients in a bowl until smooth!. Spread gently over your face and neck, and leave in place 10-15 minutes!. Rinse with cool water and follow with your favorite toner!.
Avocado Dry Skin Masque
California Avocado Commission
Beat the yolk of an egg until it is light and frothy, then add the mashed pulp of a half avocado, blending it well (you may use a blender at this point)!. Cleanse your face thoroughly before using this masque (or any masque)!. Spread the avocado mixture over the face and neck evenly; relax on a slant board or bed for about 20 minutes!. Remove with clear tepid water and a face cloth, followed by a rinse of cold water or a mild skin lotion!. The result should be a marked improvement in skin texture, and all-around revitalizing!.
Avocado Oily Skin Masque
California Avocado Commission
Put the white of an egg, a teaspoon of lemon juice, and the mashed pulp of a half avocado into a blender!. In seconds, you should have a lovely green mixture!. Wash your face and neck thoroughly, then apply masque evenly on those areas!. Relax for 20 minutes; remove with tepid water and a face cloth!. Follow with cold astringent or skin tonic!.
BASIL ACNE TONIC
Basil is known for its "soothing and toning" properties!.
2 to 3 teaspoons dried basil leaves
1 C!. boiling water
Steep basil leaves in water for 10 to 20 minutes!. Cool, then apply to face with a white cotton ball!. Keep tonic refrigerated!. Recommended shelf life: 90 days!.
SPA INDEX HONEY OATMEAL FACIAL
1/4 cup plain yogurt or buttermilk
1/2 cup oatmeal
2 tablespoons of honey
Finely grind or process the oatmeal in a blender or food processor!. Set aside!. In a small bowl, stir together honey and yogurt, and then add ground oatmeal!. Mix thoroughly until a smooth paste consistency has been reached!. Smooth over your face and neck, leave on for fifteen minutes, and rinse off with warm water!. Can be used daily
PAPAYA PUMPKIN FACIAL
If you have visited spas and resorts in exotic locales such as the Pacific Rim, Bali, Hawaii, and Tahiti, you've probably seen a facialist select and mash fresh fruit in front of you for a fresh-on-the spot enzyme mask!. It's easy to recreate this mask at home -- we've found a Balinese mask for you which will leave your face fresh and glowing!.
2/3 cup fresh papaya, mashed
15 oz!. can pure pumpkin
1 egg, beaten
1!. Prepare the mask!. Cut the papaya in half and scoop out the seeds!. Scoop out the papaya fruit and mash it well to eliminate lumps in the mask!. Beat the egg until it is frothy!. Combine that with the papaya!. Add the pumpkin to the egg/papaya mixture and whip together!. You can also mix the ingredients in the blender or a food processor for an extra smooth mask!.
2!. Prepare your face!. Wash with your daily cleanser and remove all residual makeup on your skin!. Rinse with warm water!. It's very important to have clean skin to ensure you get maximum benefits from the facial!.
3!. Apply the Mask!. Cover your entire face, being careful to avoid the immediate eye area!. If you have sensitive skin, test the mixture on your hand before spreading it on your face!. You'll feel some tingling as the enzymes in the pumpkin go to work immediately -- gently exfoliating your top layer of skin!. It works like a scrub without being abrasive to your skin!. Leave the mask on for 10 minutes!.
4!. Rinse Off Mask!. After you've relaxed for ten minutes it's time to rinse!. The mask is fairly thick -- head for the kitchen sink!.
5!. Apply Toner & Moisturizer!.
