Get in the bath and forget all my worries. I would like, massage my scalp and neck touching acupressure points. Use an exfoliation brush to remove dead skin to show my beautiful glowing skin underneath that has just grown there like a fresh baby. Put some milk into my bath, or use wine, or use bath bombs, olive oil, coconut oil, etc. Gently massage my hair without balling it up..!!

Well, most of my “pampering” comes in the morning when I’m getting ready for the day, and at night when I’m getting ready for bed. Those are times I don’t rush, because that’s MY time. When I need a little extra thn i light some candles, run a bubble bath, and just soak. When I’m done, I finish off with a pedicure – it feels great! Another great idea is to call up ma best buddy, phone some girlfriends, and get together for a girls’ night in.its grt :):)

Living in Bombay and working 6 days of the week leaves me with no time to unwind. In fact, there are rare occasions when I am actually even able to go for a spa and the last time it happened was on my birthday.I have several gift vouchers for some amazing spas which are lying with me but I haven’t been able to take out time. So my ideal stress busting exercise would be one that I can do at home.

To pamper myself after a day of hard work I relax by putting on a face pack (with natural ingredients, mostly) & moisturizing my hands & feet with a nice scented lotion (I hate how dry the skin can get in winter).
I really love the sound of Nyassa products because they’re both natural & scented, two things I absolutely love!
February 4th, 2012 at 1:33 pm
To be honest, I pamper myself by lukin’ lukin’ and just lukin’ into the mirror and see my smiling face in different angles, trust me it really works because when you’ll look into the mirror, the mirror will force you to love yourself more relieving you from all the worries and that’s the best pampering session one can have, well without spending any bucks :)
February 4th, 2012 at 2:27 pm
i pamper myself by asking my mom at least 50 times a day how m looking and honestly speaking she always says best in the world n that makes my day more beautiful.Besides i also pamper myself by saying oho!!! Shruti u r luking slim today.
February 4th, 2012 at 2:31 pm
How about me pampering myself to this coming Valentine……Relaxed Reinvigorated Refreshed for the Day…..I want to win this….
February 4th, 2012 at 2:38 pm
Hey hi, I always pamper myself going for spa treatments , hot gair oil massage or pedicures which I live the most in this world and that is the time I forget everything fr few hours ….I think this is a very big stress buster as welll and. Love fragrances too especially as they keep u as well ur surroundings refreshed :)
February 4th, 2012 at 2:55 pm
As a working mom of an active toddler I hardly get time for myself. Atleast once I week I make sure to hand her over to my husband for half a day atleast…give myself a nice head oil massage, soak in a hot tub with yummy smelling bath salts, scrub my feet and settle back with a book. After the bath, I love painting my toe nails in chirpy colours and I am ready to take on another roller-coaster week!
February 4th, 2012 at 3:10 pm
i am great book lover,so whenevr i feel like pampering myself i head to the nearest crossword(my fav bookstore) or any good bookstore.oh god i simply love the time i spend there.i know its a bit strange for a girl who is 20 to do all that.but its amazingly uplifting and i feel really upbeat when i have a bag full of my new purchases.
the next stop for me is the mall.where i shop for the i-dnt-really-need-clothes as my mum calls them :P
cum bak home n try them on n keep standing infrnt of the mirror..
i sit bak on my relaxing chair then with a tub of warm water mixed with aromatic oils and powders.open my book nd dts my idea of spoiling myself :)
the icing on the cake is a call frm my love.his words just evaporate any possible tiredness frm “the day’s work” :)

Dear miss malini,
When girl is going to become bride then that is just the beginig. Normally i have noticed before marriage date girls take very good care of herself and after that nothing but only housework. But what i believe is actual journey starts after marriage only. After marriage also girl should take care of her body and skin. coz after marriage if wife becomes boring housewife no husband would like that so i have reson to pamper myself that i want my husband to be interested in me for my whole life from the first day of marriage till i will be grandma.

After a long tiring schedule I love to pamper myself with a nice body massage at a good spa/salon, hair massage, face cleansing (herbal), manicure pedicure, a nice hot shower with my tub filled with rose petals and last but not the least a special dinner prepared by my hubby to put a perfect end to my day!!!
February 4th, 2012 at 5:58 pm
In a place such as Delhi, anyone could tell you the Importance of the “Soaking into a Blissful warm hot-tub” with beautiful aroma of essential oils and soap releasing all the stress that this city brings you down to!
Aaah!
I can only drool at these products! But on a serious note , I really would love the hamper and especially, I love the names they have given to these products!
Job well done Nyassa!
Cheers!

I love to pamper myself at the end of the hectic day from all the khit pit and all the tensions and before talking to my wife and asking her about the day I like to pamper myself first by a lavish bath of 45 mins and then go ahead to enjoy relaxly with my family:D
February 4th, 2012 at 10:38 pm

I pamper myself in all possible ways:
1. Retail Therapy
2. go for a pedicure and head massage- never fails
& 3. Gorgeous food
Lots of changes in my life….job issues…changed city….set up a new house…dad in law just recovered from an accident….just feeling burnt out lately…would appreciate the hamper to pamper ;-) (nd it rhymes)
February 5th, 2012 at 7:32 am
For me, its very straight forward….i just need to go to mom’s place for an endless pampering session any time of the day..and am sure most girls would agree with me on this..a visit to mom’s is a zillion times more relaxing than the best spa in the world, not to forget the gorgeous food of hers i get to devour on ! Luv u, mom !

It would be really great to win Nyassa’s magical sets,as I too, want to be the Lady leisure Bath type because not much is done by me to pamper myself,it usually begins in weekends when I don’t have to entail a race against time,so simply march off to hot bath with my handful of ammunition of loofahs,friction mitts and body scrub for a exfoliation routine and finish off by moisturising,massaging and increasing circulation with a bottle of body milk.Now hoping to win to treat myself more.

With a loving husband who dots on me, I always have arms that are open to wrap me in and shelter from everything. Like a little bunny in his long and strong arms and ofcourse a puppy face, I can get all my pampering from my husband.
While when it comes to pampering for beauty reasons, a mild exfoliating and freshly sccented boby wash accompanied by a lovely purple colored loofa to lavishly foam it up; regular scrubbing of the feet; face wash for the face; all this summed up with an easily absorbing water-based body cream…I think this is enough reason for me to try Nyassa’s natural pampering products to complete my pampering :-)
February 5th, 2012 at 9:19 pm
wow malini..what a g8 contest…well for me to pamper myself i will go for the swedish spa in my favt parlour to remove all tiredness n to relax my body n mind. exfoliating body scrub followed by a rejuvanating body wash.then a moisturiser..then scented my body with my husband’s favt perfume. n i m done… done dana dan dan
February 5th, 2012 at 10:25 pm
I pamper myself by just taking my bike a looooooong drive along the sea side, not so fast, not so slow, enjoying every person, tree and scenes throughout, esp. at sunset, enjoying the varying color of the sea as the sun sets, and ofcourse returning with a night-drive!!!
February 5th, 2012 at 10:52 pm
i pamper myself by eating and sleeping right, following my cleaning, toning and moisurising ritual daily and indulging in a spa once in a while before a special occasion. i love body products. recently got gifted a victoria’s sectret body lotion and it smells like heaven so i pamper myself with it daily!
February 6th, 2012 at 10:23 am
I pamper myself by picking out my natural products like putting on my handcream , putting parachute coconut oil on my skin as a moisturizer , and rosewater on my face . I would love to go to a spa someday and get a full treatment but they are too expensive so I use home remedies instead which are all natural and way more affordable .
February 6th, 2012 at 11:25 am
In my busy routine, i hardly get chance to pamper myself. But when it does happen. I make sure i think about me..just me. That particular day i love my self and forget about everything else. Switch off my phone..go on a shopping tour..apart from clothes (girls weakness) i will buy expensive toiletries, perfumes. Will get a nice Spa or Body massage followed by a nice luxurious lunch or dinner. However, on a daily basis, i do pamper myself by eating..i am a big foodie and just loves to eat and try different kinds of eating joints.
February 6th, 2012 at 12:17 pm
Every Sunday, I usually pamper myself by getting some nice scented candles, my favourite happy and calming music, scented soap, bubble bath liquid and a face mask made from mashed avocado and honey.Lay down for at least 30 mins. to enjoy this peaceful and calming “Me-time” releasing off the toxic thoughts and layers of dirt miles away !

Pampering onself when you live away from parents and boyfriend is kind of difficult. But what I do is every week I spend some time doing stuff that relax me and make me feel good.
WHAT DO I DO?
So I usually plan a lazy morning during the weekends following by an oil massage and sunning (yeah, winter sun). Follow it up with a long bath to exfoliate and pamper my skin. I usually use a face pack, a hair pack, soak my feet for a while, deep condition my hair, and come out feeling hungry :D This is followed by some body butter, toners on the face, some hydrating lotion and a relaxed lunch – watching tv. This whole regime gets over by 4pm and I promptly follow it up with a beauty nap.
On other days, I call up my parlor and book myself up for a mani-pedi and facial & hairspa. I end up spending the whole day pampering myself.
WHY DO I DO IT?
I think this way, I get to relax my body. Since I am usually rushing to office on weekdays, weekends are spent making up for that. I get out feeling good.
WHEN DO I DO IT?
Weekends

I eat pray and stay healthy. My Mantra is to do something good everyday.. I pamper my skin with home made face packs and soak my feet in warm water with olive oil and sea salt. I believe that a happy person is a complete person… So I stay happy and focussed on whatever I do..beaty treatments included. :)
