On Friday, we were looking behind the backboard of our bed in the secret compartment and ran across a coupon I'd given Aus for some holiday months and months ago. The coupon was made out for the "Sirles Spa," an at-home spa event just for Austin. In ways, Austin enjoys pampering (back rubs, foot massages, the works) more than many girls I know. So he didn't waste any time cashing in the coupon last night. We had a really fun and relaxing time, especially Austin.
First, he soaked his feet for about 15 minutes while eating some french bread pizza we made together.
Foot soak recipe:
14 cups of hot water
3 cups of milk
After his feet were soaked, I dried them off and exfoliated them with the following mixture.
Foot exfoliation recipe:
1/2 cup white sugar
2 Tablespoons lotion
I exfoliated for about 5 minutes and then rinsed his feet in clear, cool water.
I also made this body scrub which he used on his chest and back.
Body scrub recipe:
1 cup oats
1 cup brown sugar
2/3 cup oil (The oil would have been best as olive oil, but that's way too expensive here, so we used some good old sunflower oil, high in vitamin E.)
This is sticky, so it needs to be rinsed off really well after exfoliating!
The picture featured above is Austin enjoying a seaweed paste mask, a "green melon the nose membrane," and a "rose hip anti-wrinkle and moisturizing eye mask pack."
