How to Create the Ultimate At-Home Spa Day
Step 1: Start with a Cleansed Face
No spa day is complete without giving your face the attention it deserves.
Cleansing your face before a bath or shower is an ideal way to start an at-home spa experience because it primes your skin for the treatments that follow. Removing makeup, oils, and impurities first prevents these from spreading onto other areas and allows the steam to open and clear pores effectively. This extra step creates a fresh base for masks, serums, or other treatments you might apply, helping them penetrate better.
Starting with a clean face also sets a relaxing tone, allowing you to fully unwind and enjoy the spa experience.
Product Recommendation: Begin with one of Pure Fiji’s gentle cleansers, like the Coconut Cleansing Balm or the Coconut Cleanser with Papaya and Moringa. This will remove dirt, makeup, and impurities, giving you a fresh canvas for the rest of your spa day.
Follow Pure Fiji’s Coconut Exfoliating Scrub with Papaya and Pineapple Enzyme to slough away dead skin cells, revealing a smoother texture. Lightly massage a teaspoon of scrub over the face using gentle circular motions. Rinse and pat dry.
Apply a thin layer of hydrating masque, such as Pure Fiji’s Dilo & Coconut Hydrating Masque, to deeply nourish and replenish your skin. The mask’s rich ingredients not only help soothe and smooth your complexion but also improve your skin’s natural glow. Leave on for 30 minutes.
Time: 35 minutes (cleansing, exfoliating, rinsing, and application of masque)
Step 2: Soak in a Soothing Bath
A warm bath is the perfect way to relax both body and mind. It helps to open up pores, soften the skin, and ease muscle tension.
Product Recommendation: Pure Fiji Coconut Milk Bath Soak
Indulge in Pure Fiji’s Coconut Milk Bath Soak, a luxurious bath treatment infused with nourishing coconut milk that softens and hydrates your skin while you relax. This soak is perfect for a spa day as it moisturizes the skin while enveloping you in the calming scents of the islands.
How to Use: Add ⅓ cup of the bath soak to your warm bathwater, sit back, and let the tropical infusion hydrate your skin while you soak away stress.
Time: 20-30 minutes
Note: Rinse off your hydrating masque before step 3.
Step 3: Exfoliate for Glowing Skin
Once you’re feeling relaxed from your bath, it’s time to exfoliate. Exfoliating after a warm bath helps soften the skin, making it easier to remove dead skin cells, smooth the skin, and enhance its radiance. For a luxurious at-home spa experience, a sugar scrub can provide the perfect blend of exfoliation and moisture.
Product Recommendation: Pure Fiji Coconut Sugar Scrub
Pure Fiji’s Coconut Sugar Scrub is a must-have for your spa routine. This scrub combines pure cane sugar with cold-pressed coconut oil, creating an effective exfoliator that buffs away dead skin cells while leaving your skin deeply moisturized. It’s ideal for revealing smooth, glowing skin.
How to Use: After your bath, gently massage the sugar rub onto damp skin using circular motions, paying special attention to rough areas like elbows and knees. Rinse thoroughly to reveal soft, radiant skin.
Time: 5-10 minutes
Step 4: Rinse Off the Coconut Sugar Scrub
The best place to rinse off a sugar scrub is in the shower, ideally after you’ve finished exfoliating your body. Here’s why:
- Ease of Rinsing: In the shower, you can let the warm water flow over you, easily dissolving the sugar and rinsing away any residue, including any oils that might otherwise make surfaces slippery.
- Preventing Mess: Sugar scrubs can be a bit messy, especially with the granules and oils. The shower keeps everything contained and makes it easy to clean up afterward.
- Avoiding Residue in the Tub: If you're using a tub, scrubs with oils can leave a slippery residue that can be harder to rinse off. In a standing shower, it’s easier to keep the floor clean and less risky for slipping.
Time: 1-2 minutes
Step 5: Moisturize with a Body Butter or Lotion
With your skin now smooth and exfoliated, it’s time to lock in moisture. Body butters are rich, thick moisturizers made with oils and butters that deeply nourish and hydrate the skin, ideal for dry or very dry skin. Body lotions, on the other hand, are lighter, water-based moisturizers that absorb quickly and provide a more breathable layer of hydration, suitable for normal to slightly dry skin.
Product Recommendations:
Pure Fiji’s Nourishing Body Butter is packed with a blend of exotic oils, including coconut, dilo, macadamia, and sikeci oils. These ingredients work together to hydrate the skin, improve elasticity, and provide long-lasting moisture.
Pure Fiji’s award-winning Hydrating Body Lotion not only deeply moisturizes but also effectively enhances firmness, skin elasticity, and texture.
How to Use: Apply the body butter or lotion generously to your skin, focusing on areas prone to dryness, such as legs and arms.
Time: 3-5 minutes
Step 6: Seal with a Multi-Tasking Oil
Treat your skin with a multi-tasking body oil designed to seal in moisture and give your skin a natural glow. Its lightweight texture absorbs quickly, leaving your skin soft without feeling greasy.
Product Recommendation: Pure Fiji Nourishing Exotic Oil
This luxurious oil is rich in coconut, dilo, and macadamia oils, making it perfect for boosting collagen and firmness.
How to Use: Wait a few minutes for the body butter or lotion to absorb slightly, then gently massage a thin layer of body oil over the areas you've moisturized. This layering technique helps trap the lotion's moisture, leaving your skin soft and hydrated for longer.
Time: 5 minutes
Step 7: Hydrate with a Toning Mist
After finishing your shower and pampering your body with body butter and body oil, it’s the perfect moment to treat your face with a refreshing toning mist. This step rehydrates and cools the skin, creating an ideal base before applying your face serum. The mist helps your skin absorb the serum more effectively, making the next steps of your spa day routine even more luxurious and leaving your complexion feeling balanced, fresh, and glowing.
Product Recommendation: Pure Fiji’s Coconut Water Hydrating Toning Mist instantly hydrates and refreshes your skin with a blend of fresh coconut water, hyaluronic acid and ngi grass for 24-hour hydration. Infused with soothing cucumber hydrosol, passionflower extract and skin-clarifying witch hazel for the ultimate in skin hydration and comfort.
How to Use: Close your eyes and spritz directly onto your face and neck from a distance of 20 cm. Follow with an application of serum.
Time: Few seconds
Step 8: Plump with Hyaluronic
Serums are packed with concentrated ingredients that deeply penetrate the skin, targeting issues like hydration, aging, or uneven tone. Their lightweight texture allows them to absorb quickly and reach deeper layers than creams alone. When followed by a moisturizer, the serum’s benefits are sealed in, creating a barrier that locks in hydration and amplifies results. This combination makes your skincare routine more effective, leading to a smoother, healthier complexion.
Product Recommendation: Pure Fiji’s Hyaluronic Booster 8 is enriched with eight targeted forms of skin- loving hyaluronic acid, plus hydrating Ngi Grass and Plant Collagen, plumping the skin’s surface in seconds! With continuous application Hyaluronic Booster 8 can stimulate skin to produce more hyaluronic acid for deeper moisturization and younger looking skin!
How to Use: Apply a few drops of hyaluronic acid serum to your face and neck. You can massage it in until it's fully absorbed. Then, apply a moisturizer immediately to seal in the hydration.
Time: Less than one minute
Step 9: Finish with a Face Moisturizer
Finally, to complete your at-home spa day apply a face moisturizer. Moisturizers lock in essential moisture, leaving a fresh, dewy glow that’s both calming and rejuvenating. It also strengthens the skin's natural barrier, providing protection against dryness and environmental stressors.
Product Recommendation: Pure Fiji’s Hydrating Multi-Active Day Creme deeply boosts hydration by enhancing cellular water flow and moisture retention. Enriched with dilo and beach almond leaf hydrosols, hyaluronic acid, and ngi grass, it provides lasting hydration, while cold-pressed organic oils and Kinetin nourish and rejuvenate, leaving skin smooth and radiant.
How to Use: Gently massage a small amount onto the face and neck in upward, circular motions.
Time: Less than one minute
