At home relaxation rituals

“Creating space for daily rituals of self-care is the first step towards a luminous, beautiful complexion and a lifestyle that embraces health and vitality” – Michelle Reeve/Founder & formulator of Waterlily.

At Spa Anise, our purpose is to create wholesome and therapeutic experiences nourishing the face, body and mind and ultimately inspiring wellness. This doesn’t have to stop at the Spa! Create your own little sanctuary at home to honour and nourish your body and mind! We recommend you take some time for yourself to relax this festive season and try these 6 tips:

1. ADD A DOLLOP OF COCONUT OIL TO YOUR BATH

Not only will it smell amazing, you will be able to soak in its incredible moisturising benefits!

2. TURN YOUR PHONE OFF FOR THE DAY

You’ll be amazed at the time you’ll have to really connect with friends and family. Sometimes it’s easy to get caught up with social media and work commitments, we forget to leave meaningful time for ourselves and others.

3. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF MUSIC!

Don’t be afraid to occasionally steer away from your usual tunes and opt for some more calming music, the effects will be instantaneous.

4. CANDLES

Perhaps one of the most popular presents at Christmas time. Light them! Perfect when curling up to read a book or simply taking some time out. The most calming scents to look for when buying candles are lemon, lavender and peppermint.

5. CREATE A MINI SPA ANISE AT HOME

Our Spa Anise Team recommend Waterlilly’s Milk Cleanser – an intense cleansing ritual enriched with anti-ageing botanicals.  We particularly love this for its eyelash conditioning benefits! (RRP$43) Or try Fruit Gommage – an innovative skin treatment combining both benefits of an exfoliant and masque for visibly youthful skin. (RRP$66)
