How To Have The Perfect Girly Pamper Night

I'm writing this in the bath during my own pampering sesh, after being hit with inspiration over how simply divine it is. 

Now that I'm working full time, it's so important that I make the effort to have some time to myself to just relax, so what better way to do it than with the ultimate pamper night?


Glamorous Movie-Star Bath - 60 Minutes+

Start the evening off with an amazing bath with a handful of LUSH products swirled in for good measure. In my own bath, I crumbled half a Creamy Candy bubble bar under the running water to create some fabulous pink bubbles, then threw in a Sex Bomb for good measure. Us girls have to treat ourselves, so have a good long soak.

Fabulous Face Mask - 20 Minutes

Whilst in the bath I always love to have a face mask on, it's multi-tasking, duh. My current favourites are the Montagne Jeunesse Strawberry, Banana and Pineapple peel-off masks, but I'm also loving LUSH's Cup ' Coffee face mask just for the delicious scent of it. Yaaaass coffeeeee.

Magazines and Chick Lit - 30 Minutes

This one can be done either whilst you're in the bath, or sprawled across your bed wrapped in a fluffy towel afterwards. Curling up with a good book or trash-rag (sorry Cosmo, I do love you really) is such a nice way to completely chill and take some time out. Added bonus if the magazine comes with an awesome freebie you can play around with (Benefit's Ready, Set, Brow is free with Marie Claire this month!)

Perfect Pedicure - 15 minutes

Treat those tootsies to some love with Soap & Glory's amazing Heel Genius foot cream and a pretty pedicure. If you can trick persuade someone else into doing it for you, even better. Luckily, Sam actually loves having girly nights with me and I can usually get him to do it!

Chick-Flick Chills - 90 Minutes +

Finish off your fabulous evening with a perfect feel-good film. Rom-Coms like Love Actually, Bridget Jones Diary and Pretty Woman are perfect for this, but my personal favourite is The House Bunny - Everything about it just screams 'girly night-in'.

If you start your pamper night at 7, you should be easily done by 10pm, ready to catch some zzzz's with a good night's sleep!

How do you spend your pamper nights?

  1. Lush for pamper nights are my absolute favourite! I have been really loving their new "Don't Look At Me" face mask (the bright blue one) as it's fresh and scrubby at the same time. My pamper nights also include take aways or italian pizza and soda :) xx

  4. Oh my god! This sounds amazing! I say to myself every week I need to make time for myself and have a pamper night but by the time I've got the kids to bed and done the tidying up I have a quick shower and I'm in bed fast asleep! I'm going to go out and buy some Lush bits so I have no excuse lol.

    Great post lovely!
