I feel like in motherhood this topic comes in various ways of what self-care is. The only time I can do quick self-care for myself is when my daughter is sleeping. I’ve compiled a list of self-care product ideas from Target that you can use.
I remember the days before my daughter I would get up and do things my way anytime like painting my nails, going to the spa, getting a massage, etc! Whew! But now I know you have to be strategic when it comes to doing your self-care. You need it. Your mental health needs it. YOU deserve it.
Sometimes we need a quick self-care time to refresh ourselves from the day and having a mini pampering session will do just that.
Self Care Products from Target
Ahh I just LOVE candles, it always sets the mood and they have so many candle options I just want to grab every single one of them!
Wearing a robe is a must have for ANY pamper session. It definitely makes you feel good and can be similar to a spa day!
Detoxify your face from all day impurities with this Burt’s Bees detoxifying clay mask. You need it girl! I love using a mask that will help make me feel like my face is clean.
My personal favorite, I love wearing this mask for my hair. It keeps it moisturized and super soft. It also detangles my curls.
Using a journal is a great way to vent out your feelings. It’s also a reminder to see the growth of what you went through. I’ve always used a journal since I was a child and now it’s always been something I’ve cherished as memories. This is also relaxing for your mind.
I use this for my pedicures as I soak my feet in the tub. I love how this can soothe your feet and makes your body relaxed.
Its a rechargeable foot exfoliator with a USB cord. Waterproof for both wet and dry use! This is perfect for exfoliating your feet in those times where your child might wake up and disrupt your pedicure session!.
I love a good hair wrap when I’m using a face mask or doing a hair treatment with a plastic cap. It’s such a great product to have on hand.
Ok! I love matching Pajamas. How many of you have mismatched ones?! I know I always have mismatched PJS, treat yourself with this cute set and make yourself feel cute. Plus they’re satin whooooo.
Gotta keep your feet snuggled and comfortable with these Dearfoams slippers.
I love salt scrubs that exfoliate your skin. Use this in the shower and your skin will feel smooth right after. The scent will also keep you relaxed and soothed.
I LOVE using body oils. This one I’ve tried before and it makes my skin feel loved, moisturized and the scent of lavender is always relaxing.
Use this face steamer with your skin care routine. This will help open up your pores and detoxifies the skin. I need to grab one ASAP!
I’ve always used a diffuser in my home. I love that this one has a classic minimal look to it and has an 8 hour run time with automatic shut off.
This 3pak essential oil blend set is perfect for your senses. Add this to your diffuser to create the ambiance while playing spa music in the background. Close your eyes and imagine you’re at the spa!
I love this subtle nail polish color. It’s a perfect color that you can wear with anything. Try to paint your nails while the kids are sleeping!
Time for Self Pampering!
Now everyone has a different way of what self care means to them. It could be binge watching a television series, taking a spa day to yourself, driving around the city, going to a coffee shop etc. There’s no one way of doing self care but there is one thing though, you have to take the time for yourself.
Tips for a self care evening:
- Try to schedule a day where you will do a self care day. (I know sometimes it’s difficult but try to schedule whatever you can)
- Be intentional on your self care, it’s very necessary.
- If your self care session gets interrupted, (due to baby crying or whatever family needs) its ok, there’s another day. I say this because my husband works late and sometimes my daughter wakes up and I’m not able to finish what I need to do.
