How to Have the Perfect “Spa Night”

One of the best activities to do with your girlfriends or even by yourself is to have a spa night. Not only is it a great way to get some self-care activities done but it’s also a lovely way to connect with your girlfriends or yourself. Here are a few tips to help you have the best spa night, so you can save money while getting your nails done with your gal pals:

Go all out with manicures

A spa night is certainly not complete without a manicure. First, you’ll need the right manicure & pedicure nail tools, as well as great nail polish that dries quickly or even stick-on nail styles.

Take turns with your friends doing each other’s nails so that you can all walk away from your “spa night” with great nails that challenge the styles of your favorite nail tech. If you’re all about saving that nail money this season to save up for the holidays, spa nights ensure your nails look good anyway. Plus with a little practice, you might be able to try out fun nail designs.

Do “facials”

If you want to really do your spa night right, you also need to think about your face as well. While you could do simple masks for the picture-perfect spa night, take your skincare a step further by also exfoliating and adding moisturizer afterward. There’s nothing quite as soothing as getting that deep cleanse.

Teach each other new makeup looks

Before you do your facials, consider doing makeup looks on each other so you can all share your tips and tricks for the kind of makeup you each like to do on yourselves.

If one of the girlfriends is great with eyeliner but another one kills it with foundation, spending time doing each other’s looks and photographing them can have you all walking away with new ways of doing your makeup. You’ll want to arrive with clean and bare faces and do this before your facials so that you can get the benefits of your skincare products without covering your face up with makeup.

Hire a masseuse

If you really want to have a spa night that feels real, consider hiring a masseuse. After all, most people visit spas for a massage and while it may be some extra money to hire someone to come to your house, it can be a great way to truly have a relaxing spa experience with your friends.

Pitch in together and hire someone who will leave you all feeling more relaxed than ever before. It could be as simple as getting the most basic massage if you have time restraints or going in-depth with massages that help you release all that tension that you’ve been feeling.

Drink your favorite drinks

A wine night combined with a spa night is a great way to truly relax and enjoy the company of your girlfriends. If you’re someone who enjoys a wine subscription, break out that new bottle you just got and share it with your friends. If you’re more of a whiskey and old-fashioned kind of person, buy your favorite bottle to pour with your gal pals. Even sparkling water is a great drink for sober gal circles that still want to feel bougie while drinking out of fancy glasses.

In Conclusion

From glass or two of wine with your friends to facial masks and nail polish, there are so many ways to have a great spa night with your lady friends. While it may not be as fancy as going to a spa, you’ll still walk away from this fun activity with your girlfriends feeling refreshed and relaxed. Plus, you may learn a tip or two about how best to do your makeup.
