Everyone deserves to be pampered especially on a romantic day like Valentine’s. Instead of buying a gift, provide your loved one with a pampering treat. Spend the evening together with time spent on massages, manicures, pedicures, and a relaxing, romantic soak in the tub.
Start off with a beautiful spa gift basket. Many stores and boutiques will have baskets already put together but it is just as easy (plus more fun and personal) to build one. Fill it with favorite candles, lotions, body washes, massage oil, perfumes, all in soft romantic scents. Purchase products that can be used for your own special pampering session. If budget is a problem, just use baby oil, flower petals and a favorite fragranced lotion wrapped in a beautiful way.
- A spa basket will be a gift that will bring many moments of relaxation from Valentine’s Day on. Plus, whenever it is used, the memory of you and your Valentine’s night will be the first to come to mind. A beautiful gift basket with some of their favorite products will definitely bring delight. For extra brownie points, purchase a pampering session at a favorite spa to be used on a later date.
- We never give ourselves time to relax, and be pampered. So treat your loved one with time! Time spent in a rose petal bath, with soft music and candles will be the ultimate pampering gift.
- Massage the hands and feet with some lotion and prepare to give a manicure and a pedicure. There is no need to do a full on manicure and pedicure unless that is something that your loved one desires. A simple massage on the hands and feet with hand cream is a good start. File and buff nails to shape and smooth away any rough edges. Finish with a coat of clear polish.
- Prepare a soft area, either on the floor with blankets or on the bed, to give a massage. Apply a small amount of massage oil or lotion to the hands and then massage into the back, neck, and shoulders. Knead, massage, and stroke the back, end the massage by doing soft raking moves over the skin.
Remember to be gentle and loving during this time. Put the attention on them, not thinking about what you will get because of this romantic night. Although I have a feeling, you will also be treated as well.
