It’s back to school time and back to school time often means STRESS! As a teacher, I can’t begin to tell you the importance of self-care year round, but especially during August. And that goes for everyone, not just teachers. One of the best ways I’ve learned to practice self-care is by taking time to pamper myself. So, in today’s post, I’m teaming up with Dial® Brand Body Wash at Target to help you have the most luxurious at-home spa day ever!
8 Essentials for Your At-Home Spa Day
- Dial® Brand Body Wash – I love Dial® Coconut Water Body Wash & Dial® Himalayan Salt Body Wash available at Target. They both smell amazing, and for me, scents are essential to putting me in a relaxed state of mind. The Coconut Water Body Wash is lightly fragrant, yet wonderfully tropical. It leaves your skin feeling healthy and moisturized. The Himalayan Salt Body Wash, with the help of delicate exfoliating scrubbers, leaves your skin feeling soft, smooth, and refreshed. And I’m sure you also know that Dial® brand has products for the whole family. The Dial® Kids Watery Melon Body + Hair Wash 24oz is developed with Pediatric Dermatologists for kids’ gentle skin. The sensitive formula is hypoallergenic, pH balanced, and dye free. Right now, Cartwheel is having a 10% off deal on Dial® brand products while supplies last.
- Bath Tub Tray – An at-home spa day is not complete without a long soak. If you’re planning to spend some time in your tub, you’re going to love a bathtub tray. It holds a book, magazine, tablet/phone, a drink, or anything else you may need. I love this one because it extends to fit any tub, even a large hot tub!
- Book or Magazine – Speaking of books and magazines, go ahead and pick out something for your at-home spa day. Whether its a fun, mindless magazine or an intense paperback, pick out something that YOU will enjoy. This is your time to yourself! Personally, I love getting lost in a good thriller, and if you’re looking for book recommendations, I have a couple here, here, and here.
- As I said, scent is a huge factor in feeling relaxed. Scents such as lavender, peppermint, rosemary, and vanilla all have different calming and/or mood-lifting effects on your body. I don’t know about you, but coconut always lifts my mood, because it makes me think of the beach!

- Rose Quartz Roller – Using a face roller supports lymphatic drainage to de-puff your skin, and it can also reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Place your roller in the refrigerator before use for an extra spa-like, relaxing feel!
- I love a good face mask! There are so many out there, and honestly, they all help to hydrate your skin and make it glow. Whatever you choose, it’s sure to leave you feeling extra pampered.
- Waterproof Speaker – If I’m not reading in the tub, I like to play relaxing music, light candles, turn the lights down, and just soak to my heart’s content.
- Beverage of choice – Staying hydrated is so important, but especially after you’ve used the face roller. Just like a massage, you’ll need to drink water afterwards. Fruit-infused water would definitely maintain the spa vibes, so if you think about it beforehand, go ahead and make you a little pitcher. Not to mention, water keeps your skin glowing!
