So it’s almost spring (I’m counting down the seconds, this winter has been rough!) and I always take the time to do a little bit of spring cleaning this time of year. It makes me feel so rejuvenated and gets me out of the winter rutt that I’m most definitely in (anyone feel me?). This year my spring cleaning was very extensive because we moved and cleaned out EVERYTHING, guys I threw away 11 big black garbage bags, 11! It felt so nice. But with the spring cleaning of my house, I decided that I really needed to spring clean my face. Breakouts have been one of my least favorite pregnancy side effects and my face so desperately needed some deep “spring” cleaning.
I found these NEW incredible cleansers from Bioré, Bioré Baking Soda Cleansing Scrub and Bioré Baking Soda Pore Cleanser, that seriously blow my mind! They give your face a natural deep clean and gentle exfoliation that’s perfect for combination skin (both oily and dry) and the best part is that you can literally hear and feel the fizz of the Baking Soda Cleansing Scrub working right on your face. Washing my face is now something I look forward to at night-don’t worry, there’s a video below where you can see and hear it working!
It comes out feeling exactly like powder, you put a little bit of water on the powder to activate it and viola! Within seconds it’s bubbling and fizzing right in your hand.
I also know that after a long hard day at work or school or being a mom, you just need to relax but you don’t have the time (or the money, a hundred bucks or more? HECK NO) to go to the spa. So I created a fast and easy way you can create your own spa day at home for just a few bucks and a short amount of time.
Step 1: Grab a good book and fill the tub 🙂
Step 2: While the tub is filling, cleanse your face with Bioré Baking Soda Pore Cleanser.
Step 3: Put ten drops doTERRA essential oils Lavender oil and ten drops Serenity oil into the tub. Both of these oils completely relax me. I always do my “spa day” at night right before I go to bed so the Lavender also helps me fall asleep quicker and the Serenity calms me down (which, unfortunately, is so needed), it’s life changing my friends. If you visit my Essential Oils page, you can fill out the form to have me send you samples of both of these products, free of charge :).
Step 4: Put Bioré Baking Soda Cleansing Scrub on your face and get in the tub. That amazing cleanser scrubs your face on it’s own and gets you that gentle exfoliation without you having to do a thing. It feels like you are getting a 5 star spa treatment in your own home! I let it sit on my face in the tub for 3-5 minutes and then I wash it off.
Step 5: To create a good lather in combination with the oils, I take a shower puff ball and put any kind of shower gel on it then scrub all of those dead skin cells off. I love doing this to help me feel clean and in the winter months the oils help to not dry out my skin.
There you have it. DIY spa day, easy peasy and cheap! I found all of these products (except for the oils) at WalMart in the same aisle!
Like I said earlier, this scrub is perfect for those of you who have combination skin, like me, my t-zone is oily but the rest of my face is dry. But for those of you who have oily skin try Bioré Charcoal products, which are made specifically for you!
I can’t wait for you to try these products out and let me know if you had as much fun cleaning your face as I did!
After (feeling so fresh!):
