Even Supermoms Need a Break

Whether you’re a stay at home mom or one of us working mamas, you need a break. Try to relieve a little stress by giving your self a mini DIY spa treatment. You should be able to find almost everything you need at your local dollar store. My local Dollar Tree carries everything from candles to French manicure kits.

First, find someone to pawn your offspring on, I can’t tell you how many times I have been interrupted in with a sweet little voice asking to join in. Next, start a nice hot bath and add some fragrance, my favorite would have to be baby powder found around the house. While your bath is filling up, remove any old nail/toenail polish. This will make them a lot easier to paint after your bath. Grab a good romance/mystery novel and hop in!

After your bath, lather on some nice body lotion. Make sure to place close attention to your knees and elbows. Now would be the the time to paint your nails, apply a mask, taking care of any tweezing that needs to be done. Take your time, you never know when it will happen again.
