While nothing can replace the relaxation (and results) of a day at the spa with licensed professionals, there are some great ways to enjoy a spa day at home. With products from local Dayton beauty brands, you’ll have everything you need to recreate the calming experience of the spa in your own bathroom.

Try a fruit facial peel.

Getting a professional facial peel at the salon can yield some truly remarkable results. In the meantime, you can try a gentler version at home with Skin Foodie’s Papaya Enzyme Peel. Using the natural enzymes of papaya and pineapple with alpha hydroxy and glycolic acids, this peel does the exfoliating for you, revealing gorgeous, glowing skin.

Deep condition your hair.

During the week, many of us rush through washing and conditioning our hair, not really devoting enough time or product to really make a difference to our locks. For a change of pace, add Arcani Coil Care’s Royal Roots Deep Conditioner to your spa day routine. Using coconut-derived moisturizers, vegetable protein, and vitamins A, D, and E, this deep conditioner adds shine and body to all hair types while helping to repair problem areas.

Moisturize all over.

There’s nothing more luxurious than a body oil that melts into your skin like a cream. Elle Landon’s Concentrated Body Oil blends pomegranate, apricot, argan, gardenia, jasmine, and lemon oils to make a body oil that helps fight signs of aging while providing a ton of moisture.

Add a fresh scent.

When you’re ready to end your spa day at home, top it off with a refreshing scent that will remind you of the relaxing time you spent doing a little self-care. Humble Hive Homemade’s Solid Perfume Jars are the perfect complement to a calming spa day experience. These toxin-free, all-natural jars of solid perfume are scented with gender-neutral blends of essential oils.

Self-care is an important way to handle the stress of everyday life. Take care of yourselves and enjoy some of the amazing products Dayton has to offer. What are some of your favorite local beauty brands, products, and shops?
