Aromas to Come Home to This Autumn – Creating a Spa Day at Home With Janjira

If you’ve ever experienced a truly relaxing spa treatment then you’ll understand the power of an effective massage. It can work miracles to de-stress both the mind and body and can really help invigorate you when you need it most.

However finding the time to unwind is something we all struggle with, and a full spa day is often out of the question when it comes to getting time off work or finding a babysitter. But what if you would recreate the ultimate spa experience into the comfort of your own home?

Born in Thailand, Janjira strive to marry the technology of expert skincare with naturally active ingredients to create effective skincare benefits which you can achieve at home. No need to visit a spa, simply order online and prepare for an afternoon or evening of sublime serenity. 

The first step to creating a spa-like atmosphere at home is to appeal to all the senses. Autumn is the perfect season for snuggling up at home with an array of candles on display. Dim the lights, play some relaxation music and light some scented candles.  

The luxurious Grapefruit & Tangerine Therapy Massage Candle rejuvenates the senses, giving an uplifting feeling as you begin to unwind. Light the candle and allow the wax to melt into a warm, nourishing oil which can be used to massage tense or aching muscles.

Whilst you wait for the wax to melt, we recommend turning off all electronic devices – including your phone – and practicing mindfulness whilst you enjoy a hot drink such as Chamomile tea or a glass of wine. When you’re feeling a little more chilled out, remove all of your make up and apply your favourite face mask.

We love the Pomegranate & Acai Facial Mask which delivers instant hydration whilst soothing dry skin. Packed with nutrients, antioxidants and anti-ageing agents this indulgent mask has moisturising Shea butter, hydrating jojoba seed oil and softening coconut oil.

Mushroom extract helps to tighten pores and make skin look smoother whilst the warm oil is absorbed efficiently into the skin, making it feel nourished and supple. Pomegranate extract and Acai oil provide a firming and plumping action and the result is revitalised, refreshed and glowing skin in minutes.

Instead of removing the mask with water, really work the product into your skin by gently massaging it in with your fingers using circular motions. Finish by washing the product away with a warm cloth. Remember to do this all mindfully, taking notice of how your mind and body reacts and slow down as necessary.

When the massage wax is ready for use, use it to get to work on any tight spots you may have on your shoulders, arms, thighs or calve muscles. This versatile oil can be used on the body and face, as well as cuticles, elbows and feet.

For another scent try the soothing, comforting notes of aromatic Jasmine and Ylang Ylang Therapy Massage Candle. The sweet orange blossom creates a tranquil atmosphere and the active ingredients like soybean oil, coconut oil and beeswax balance the skin’s natural moisture.

Take care of yourself with an all over body treatment in the form of the Argan Oil Sugar Milky Body Scrub. The sugar gently removes stubborn dead skin cells leaving skin smooth, even and silky to the touch. Argan oil contains natural fatty acids and is rich in vitamin E, adding radiance to the skin with every use. Buff away the stress of the day using sweeping, circular motions before rinsing off in a warm shower. The added eucalyptus leaf oil will leave your body and senses invigorated.

After a relaxing meditation session or a lengthy soak in the tub, round off your spa day by locking in all that goodness with the Thai Lime & Ginger Body Butter. Enriched with ginger and citrus extracts this moisturiser is quickly absorbed, restores elasticity and offers long-lasting hydration. Apply all over and let the avocado oil heal and soothe, whilst vitamin B3 maintains good circulation and helps acne problems. Skin is left restored and smelling beautiful.

If your home doesn’t lend itself to spa day or you can’t get a peaceful moment from flatmates or family, why not have a mini pamper evening at a friend’s house or the next time your stay away in a hotel? The Thai Lime & Ginger Mini Set is not only a perfect way to try out the Janjira range, but a handy way to transport everything you need for evening away from home. The five piece set is a bargain at £25 and contains the best selling body products from the Thai Lime & Ginger range. It includes a shower gel, massage oil, hand wash and two types of body scrub to give you a taster of the amazing benefits of using the Janjira brand.
