10+ Ways to Pamper Yourself

Do chocolates, roses, and cheesy cards come to mind when you think about Valentine’s Day?

While it’s a wonderful time to shower others with love, it’s also important to practice self care by loving and pampering yourself too. The love that’s in the air is not only meant for others, it’s meant for you too.

10+ Ways Pamper Yourself for Valentine’s Day

I love spending time with my husband and my kids and showing them how much they mean to me. I also love the rise of Galentine’s Day celebrations, because good girlfriends are a treasure.

But we have to make sure our own cup is full too. When we love ourselves, we have more love to give to our family and friends.

Now, you don’t have to do anything extravagant, but I want to encourage you to carve out time that is just for you this Valentine’s Day. Here are a few ideas on how to pamper yourself.

Wake up a little earlier

I know, I know, I like to sleep too, but hear me out. Wake up earlier so you can take your time getting ready. Enjoy the peace and quiet while the rest of the house sleeps. Use that time to meditate, write in your journal, and go grab a latte.

Or ignore me and sleep in!

Schedule a spa day

Schedule that massage or get a facial. Heck, get both! Want to create your own affordable spa day at home with a bubble bath or a long steamy shower?

Looking for ways to pamper yourself for Valentine's Day? Moms often struggle to take time for self care. Get ideas on how to show yourself love!

Fortunately, my friends at Grove are offering this free Personal Care Kit to help cure the winter blues. When you place your first order of $20 using my link, you’ll get:

  • Free Mrs. Meyer’s body wash
  • Free Mrs. Meyer’s body lotion
  • Free Grove loofah
  • Free Shipping & 60 Day VIP Trial

If you’re an existing customer, you’ll receive a free Grove lip balm — perfect for soothing chapped lips!

Dry winter air is particularly hard on your skin. Mrs. Meyer’s body wash is made with aloe vera so it’s super nourishing, and the scents smell like a spring garden. Mrs. Meyer’s body wash is even better with this Grove loofah. You only need a little dollop of soap on the soft mesh to create a rich lather. It’s great for exfoliating and increasing circulation to leave your skin smooth and glowy.

After a shower, I love using Mrs. Meyer’s body lotion. It sinks in quickly, and hydrates without feeling greasy or heavy. This has earned a permanent spot on my bathroom counter next to my Mrs. Meyer’s hand lotion! My favorite scent is lavendar.

Add in a soft fluffy robe or fuzzy socks and it’s the perfect gift to yourself!

10 more ways to pamper yourself:

  1. Get your hair done. You can get a hair cut, refresh your color, or simply get a blow out.
  2. Get a mani/pedi.
  3. Attend a wine tasting.
  4. Read a good book.
  5. Watch Netflix.
  6. Go to the movies (yes, by yourself and get that popcorn!)
  7. Chocolate. It’s completely fine to treat yourself to chocolate that you don’t intend to share.
  8. Buy yourself flowers. They are a great pick-me-up, especially during winter.
  9. Do something creative: paint, knit, wander the craft store.
  10. Splurge on something! A new outfit, a new pair of shoes, a new purse, jewelry, perfume, or makeup. If you are geeky like me, get a new game you’ve been wanting to play!

I hope these ways to pamper yourself inspire you to do something special for yourself this Valentine’s Day. Remember, self care and self love are just as important as showing others that you care for them.
