In these stressful times, everyone needs time to feel pampered. Even though going to the spa might not be possible right now, creating a customized care package experience is!
If you know someone who’s close to you that works really hard to provide for their family, this is the perfect way to show that what they’re doing isn’t going unnoticed. Spongellé is the ideal one-stop-shop for all things spa-related. From body washes to scrubs, we’ve got exactly what you need!
What’s Special About A Spa Care Package?
There’s a lot of different ways to send a message to someone that you love, but some of these options feel cheap and artificial because they’re prepackaged. Sure, you may have spent the money on the present, but did any thought go into it?
Buying someone a care package doesn’t have to break the bank. The best part about putting together your own gift is choosing how much you’re going to spend! Customizing the package will allow you to stay on budget and still find some really incredible gifts.
Who says you need a reason to get someone a spa care package? It doesn’t matter how close the next holiday is; there’s always a good excuse to put together a gift for someone you love. If your friend or family member loves to receive gifts, you’re in the right place.
What Goes In A Spa Care Package?
If you’ve decided to give someone a care package, you might be wondering what to include. No worries! We’re here to help you come up with some ideas and spark your creativity. Here are some of the best things to include.
Face Masks
When you think of the spa, one of the first things that probably comes to mind is cucumbers and face masks. This is something that’s long been associated with the ultimate relaxation experience. So why not include a few face masks in your basket? Or better yet, make your own!
DIY face masks are easy to make, and they can be really fun too. Some of the most common ingredients for a face mask include oatmeal, banana, lemon, egg, and avocado. Look up a recipe online and make your own concoction, or mix and match ingredients to find the perfect combination. You can include a clay mask, sheet mask, or peel-off mask, depending on your preference.
Mani Pedi
Getting your nails done is the ultimate pampering experience. It can be difficult to take yourself away from your daily routine to get your nails done at a salon, and it can be really costly.
However, gifting someone the tools to give themselves a manicure can be a great alternative. Put a buffer, clipper, cuticle pusher, and some nail polish in your care package. If you aren’t sure which colors to include, pick a wide variety of choices for them to pick from!
A Book To Read
Books are the best way to escape your own world by entering a new one. If your loved one likes to read, including a romance novel or even a self-help book (an interesting one, of course)can be a fun treat for their spa day. Sometimes a break from reality is the best medicine you can receive.
Candles
There’s something transformative about lighting a candle during the evening. When you’ve got your favorite scent in a dimly lit room, it takes away all the anxiety and stress weighing on your mind. There are hundreds of candles to choose from, so pick the one (or a few) that your recipient will enjoy.
If you’re looking for a good place to start, vanilla, lavender, and teakwood are some of the most popular aromas out there. If your loved one likes sweet scents, vanilla or citrus is the way to go. If they like floral scents, lavender or rose are the best choices.
Want to add an extra element to the spa experience? Get a candle that crackles as it burns. It’s reminiscent of a fireplace and brings cozy energy into your home.
Sweet Treats
Most people have a sweet tooth. When it comes down to it, everyone wants some chocolate at the end of a long day. If you know that the person receiving your care package likes to snack on sugary sweets, include some of their favorites in their gift basket. This way, they can enjoy their dessert while they take a nice, warm bath with some candles.
Bath Bombs
Baths are a surefire way to get your blood pressure and heart rate down. Baths can be therapeutic to the soul, especially with some bubbles.
Bath bombs are a fun way to spice up a bath. They add an element of surprise to your tub and step up the indulgence factor. The right bath bomb can hydrate your skin and leave you feeling squeaky clean.
Cozy Slippers
There’s nothing that puts a damper on your spa experience more than cold feet. This rips a hole in your entire fantasy and drags you back down to reality. Keeping feet warm and toasty is all part of the spa experience.
Slippers are easy to include in a spa basket and come in tons of different materials and comfort levels. If you think your loved one won’t want slippers, swap them out for fuzzy socks!
A Note Or Card
Adding a personal touch like a card or a note will show the person you’re pampering why you think they deserve such special care. No care package is complete without a note that explains the reason behind your customized spa gift.
If you’ve got a way with words, write a cute poem or song for your person. This extra touch of cheesiness will touch your loved one’s heart.
Body Wash
If the person receiving your gift basket isn’t one for baths, get them body wash instead. This is the best way to make a shower feel like a spa experience. Body wash soothes the skin while providing a relaxing moment.
Exfoliation is just as important as hydration. That’s why Spongellé created a body wash in a sponge. It’s made with ingredients that will refresh your body and be gentle on the skin. If you’re worried about germs on the sponges, don’t be. Our sponges are infused with antibacterial agents!
If you’re looking for the right sponge to include in your care package, here are some of the most popular ones.
From our Wild Flower Bath Sponge Collection:
- French Lavender
- Coconut Verbena
- Beach Grass
- Freesia Pear
- Bulgarian Rose
- Sugar Dahlia
- Honey Blossom
As you get the sponge wet, it starts to later onto your skin. You’re guaranteed to impress whoever you give this bath sponge to because of its sophistication. Their shower will become a sensory experience full of amazing smells and nourishment.
Body Scrubs
If you’re looking to include something that focuses more on exfoliation and less on lathering, we have plenty of options for you. We offer buffers that cleanse, exfoliate, and hydrate all at once. It’s like a full beauty experience all in one product.
If you’re creating a gift basket for a guy, you might want to add our Men’s Super Buffer. Let’s not forget that boys need to be pampered, too! This buffer has an invigorating Verbena scent and is the best way to transform the kick-off to your day. Just one buffer will cleanse and scrub for more than 20 washes. Talk about the gift that keeps on giving!
So why choose Spongellé’s products to be in your spa care package? Well, we’re a vegan-friendly and cruelty-free company. We never want to harm you, animals, or our planet in the process of creating our bath essentials.
