Shelter-in-place making you long for the days you could spend an afternoon sheltering in a much more luxurious place? For example, a spa? Or perhaps, due to the general craziness (and let’s face it, expensiveness) of everyday life, a spa day was never really an option. Either way, right now is the perfect time to recreate the luxuries of the ultimate in self care right from the comfort of your home! Whether you’re off work or working from home; wrangling kids or out in the world taking care of people, we all could use a little downtime, comfort, and relaxation. And that’s where our beautiful Well•Pict Berries come in. 

This is a time when we are all learning to use what we have on hand to create, on our own, things and experiences we once shared out of the house. And, while we definitely haven’t seen the end of spa life as we know it, this is a great time to learn a new set of skills we can bring with us into the post-Corona world. 

Below, we’ve culled some great DIY recipes to create decadent self-care products your soul and skin will love, all with items you’re likely to have around the house!

Strawberry lip gloss from self.com (No Vitamin E in the house? Coconut oil works too!)

Strawberry face scrub from Freebie Finding Mom (Olive oil, Vitamin E oil, or even extra coconut oil can replace the sweet almond oil.)

Sugar scrub for berry soft baby skin from Mommy’s Bundle (This one is great if you have little ones in the house–baby wash and baby oil are two of the ingredients!)

Raspberry lip scrub from Turning Back the Clock 

And here are not one, not two, not even three or four, but five different raspberry face mask recipes…

5 Natural and homemade raspberry face masks from Organic Beauty Blogger

Now, all that’s left to do is run a bath, pour a glass of wine, and…aaaahhhhhhhh…
