Must have pampering products for creating a spa day at home
Self care is hugely important during these unprecedented times, and indulging in a mini pampering session could be just what you need.
The country’s emotions are at an all-time low just now, particularly because many of us don’t have the same outlets we’re normally used to turning to when we’re feeling a bit down.
While we can’t whisk ourselves away to a spa retreat or meet up with gal pals for gossip, there’s nothing stopping us from creating our very own zen-like spa day from home.
Here’s some of Styletto Mag’s favourite must haves for a self-indulgent, at home spa experience to help you look and feel good during lockdown.

Crafted with a limited number of carefully selected ingredients including pomegranate and glycerine, this is a moisturising wash of natural origin. Enjoy a gentle cleansing shower with a beautiful fragrance. Available at Wilko for £1.50.
Su Man’s Queen of the Night Candle, £32
