At Home Spa Treatments
For Mother's Day, Give a Gift Basket Filled with Luxury Bath Treats
It doesn't have to be Mother's Day to give a gift of luxury add-ins for at home spa treatments. These top quality body and bath products are perfect for a gift basket.
Mother's Day, and other special holidays, almost call for time to pamper and relax ourselves. But let's face it; it's not always feasible to take a luxury vacation, or even a long weekend away. Celebrate Mother's Day with an at home spa treatment, and your bath will have all the luxury of a resort's day spa. For some of us, it's hard to beat the idea of a long, relaxing soak in warm, scented water - and with the right treatments, a bath at home can be a vacation in itself.
A Mother's Day gift basket featuring at home spa treatments is a great idea. Then again, who need Mother's Day as an excuse? An at home spa treatment gift basket will be well received, holiday or not. The top quality at home spa treatments are available both in stores and online, but be warned: It's hard not to go overboard and buy more than originally intended!
Recommended luxury at home spa treatment gifts:
- Thymes - This is a woman's bath, body, and fragrance store, and the women behind Thymes strive for approximating artisinal products. Natural oils are used when possible, and there is no animal testing. The packaging is beautiful and appealing, and has had personal touches since Thymes' inception in 1982. Thymes products are sold in upscale stores across the US and Canada, and the gift sets are grouped by scent.
- Lush - Lush has been selling fresh, organic bath and body products since 1978 (in one incarnation or another). There are now almost 400 Lush stores all over the world, and the fun, festive atmosphere helps encourage the devotion of its many repeat customers. The bath bombs, at home spa treatments and skincare products are skin softening and therapeutic. The natural, organic massage bars make for a both romantic and intimate gift. Free samples are included with online orders.
- Fresh - With stores only in the US, London and Seoul, Fresh is a relatively new contender to the luxury body and at home spa treatments industry. The skincare products, scented soaps and gels, and even candles are never obtrusive. Natural ingredients are used often, and the simple clean lines of the packaging helps Fresh products fit in with any bathroom decor. The Pink Jasmine gift set is a favorite. Like Lush, Fresh includes free samples with every online order.
- L'Occitane - French to the core, L'Occitane started in Provence, and shopping for a gift in a L'Occitane store anywhere in the world feels like a trip to France. The shea butter products are among its most popular, for gift baskets for Mother's Day (or any holiday) don't have to focus on the shea butter balms. The citrusy verbena body product line, and the cherry blossom scented products, are a real luxury to receive. Free gift wrapping is available for box sets.
- Sabon - With locations in Boston, NYC, New Jersey, San Francisco, Chicago and Toronto, Sabon is growing in popularity. Sabon was introduced to North America in 2003; handmade soaps, bath salts and body scrubs made from herbs, flowers, aromatherapy oils and Dead Sea salts make Sabon a contender for the all-natural bath and body products crown. Sabon innovates with new gift baskets for holidays including Mother's Day, and there is free gift wrapping of all at home spa treatments.
Mother's Day comes only once a year, but any time is the right time for an at home spa treatment. Fans of luxury bath add-ins may have a hard time buying gifts only for their moms - when not careful, it's easy to go overboard! We all deserve a mini vacation in the bath, don't we? Happy Mother's (or whatever) Day!
