This week is a longer video because I’m jamming so many (actually awesome) DIY spa/pamper ideas PLUS my DIY facial. Everything you need is listed and linked below this description! I am a huge fan of treating yourself but I also am not one that likes to socialize when I want to chill 🙈. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good spa but I love being at home more. I wanted to show you guys how I pamper myself including the honey facial all my ladies inquire about when I post it on my Instagram (feel free to follow me @rachel_metz and see my obsession with my dog if you want). There are so many different DIY spa day routines out there, what works for you? Let me know if you guys want to see more of this! I have so much in the works but what matters most is what you want so leave me a comment below. Happy Wednesday, stay rad 🤘.

Everyone’s skin responds different but this is what works for me. I do this facial every four days! This facial works for brightening and moisturizing the skin while helping reducing blemishes. Honey for , lemon for and baking soda for . I use Apple Cider Vinegar for my toner ONLY when I do this facial but normally I use Witch Hazel as my daily toner. Coconut oil doesn’t work for everyone (it’s a trial & error kind of deal) but my skin LOVES it.

I added coffee to the muscle soak
Please don’t put baking soda or lemon on your face! Those are both much too harsh… The pH of both are so bad for your skin.
Loooove it girl
Love the vid
For the lip scrub you don’t need all THAT just use sugar and olive oil or any oil. Works just fine without all THAT.
Super easy diy vanilla lip scrub!
Mix sugar and vanilla extract
I love spa days
lemme just bathe in some dried cow titty milk
Does applecider vinegar burn on the skin?
This said diy, the only thing diy was the drink
Edit: wrong video, I actually really enjoyed this video! honestly it’s probably the best one out of all the ones I watched!❤️
I tried the ACD and could not tolerate the smell. I use fragrance free organic witch hazel toner.

You should never put lemon on your skin

Best spa routine ever
Anyone in 2020
Don’t put lemon juice and baking soda on your skin… its SO bad for your moisture barrier and can lead to worsened acne.
Hello a thank you for the help!!
honey, I ain’t got no money
do you dilute the apple cider vinegar with water before applying it to your face?
Jojoba oil is better on skin than Vitamin E oil
❤
Are those bath melts edible???lol
Those bath melts yum! Look like shortbread cookies ; ) Easter basket fodder, thanks!
DO NOT use lemon on your face !! you can replace the lemon with coconut oil or almond oil! do not use anything with acid please! 🙂
Lemon Juice and Banking Soda neutralise each other.
Facial over eyebrows too? Wish I had a bathtub like that.
I’m so grateful that I found your channel amazing DIY’s most of them reflect my character
Just so you know baking soda is not meant for your face… it can remove the skin’s protective oil barrier, alter its pH, and disrupt the natural bacteria on the surface which helps to prevent infection and acne. And lemon juice is to acidity for your face which also leads to disrupting your pH level and causing breakouts.
Loved the DIY spa ideas in this! A spa day at home is such a lovely thing to do! A bit of TLC is essential 🙂 x
I love this i think its a great. Idea to do this video because it helped me have a good spa day
Dont put apple cider vinegar, baking soda, or lemon on your face. Even if it seems like its helping for now it’s super damaging and you’ll notice in the long run

This video is nice but oh my god please don’t use lemon, baking soda, apple cider vinegar and coconut oil on your face. Lemon is photosensitive and very acidic, baking soda is quite basic (in terms of pH) and there is a reason people use it as a DIY detergent ingredient. Apple cider vinegar is also very acidic (ethanoic acid) and should only be used when its very diluted down and coconut oil is also comedogenic (blocks pores).
Try things like making an oatmeal mask which doubles as a scrub and has hydrating properties, also witch hazel and rose water make for good toners too. Shea butter is also a good alternative to coconut oil on the face since its non-comedogenic.
