You Will Not Have To Leave Home With These Easy Spa Recipes

Be it wedding approaching soon or your hectic office schedule, a spa is the 'me-me' time we all need and carve for. Due to busy schedules, it becomes impossible to step out and spend hours for spa.So here's a short list of my favorite non-honey based, totally vegan DIY spa thingies (face scrubs, masks, bath salts, etc.). Consider it my nondenominational, nondescript, super belated holiday gift to you all.

# Sugar Scrub

Ingredients

- 1 tbsp brown sugar

- A few drops of water

- A few drops of lemon juice

Method

- Combine in a bowl (may require some wrist power). Apply to face.

- Let the sugar rub away all your worries. If you feel your face is too dry, put on a thin layer of oil or cold cream.

- Try it if you have no exciting ingredients laying around the house that you're just dying to put on your face.

# Pumpkin Oatmeal

Ingredients


- 2 tbsp canned pumpkin purée

- 1 tsp jojoba or almond or olive oil

- 1 tbsp of plain oatmeal (grind to make fine)

- Optional: 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Method

- Combine all the ingredients and rub into your skin.

- Leave for 10-15 minutes then rinse with warm water.

# Haldi

Ingredients

- 2 Tbsp White Rice Flour or Ata (Chickpea flour)

- 1/2 tsp Haldi (Turmeric)

- 1 tbsp Almond or Olive Oil

- 2 tbsp Almond or Coconut Milk

Method

- Combine all the dry ingredients first, then add in the oil for moisture and the milk for consistency.

- Rub gently into your skin and allow to sit for ten minutes.

- Rinse away with warm water. This mask is especially good for dry skin.

# Coffee Grounds

Ingredients

- 1 tbsp of olive oil

1 1/2 tbsp super fine coffee grounds

Method

- Mix 2 parts olive oil to 3 parts used coffee grounds and then rub into your skin.

- After you let it sit for a few minutes, remove with a water rinse. It's like a coffee break for your face.
