As you're building your own oil collection, lavender in our book is, well, essential. At Ska:ná Spa, our Spirit of Lavender massage taps into a centuries-old practice of using this fragrant oil for its healing and protective properties. Wondering where to start? Here are some ideas to begin a spa at home practice of your own: Which, we suspect, is exactly why this trend has taken off. But there's no better summer beauty tip than to keep the stress levels in check. Yes, you'll need to carve out some time (and keep it carved). Make practicing self-care a priority by scheduling 'appointments' at home between your regular spa visits - especially when the time between those starts to stretch. That's why we love a new summer beauty trend we've spotted: spa at home. Yet summer hits full stride, and down the busy rabbit hole we go, juggling work, kiddos out of school and weekends overflowing with to-dos that rarely include things like 'book a facial and a mani/pedi.' (Through the Seasonal Strawberry and Cream Manicure/Pedicure at Ska:ná certainly sounds divine.)
