5 essentials for self-care Sunday

Do you find that Sundays fly by in a blur of laundry and last-minute errands? It’s time to reclaim that precious time for yourself with a dedicated self-care Sunday! This is your chance to press pause on life and set aside some time to treat yourself to some well-deserved pampering. No need for that three-hour massage or expensive miracle serum – all you need are a few trusted essentials to set yourself up for a weekly dose of spoiling.

Here are five must-haves for self-care Sunday that will leave you feeling refreshed and ready to take on the week.

Versatile hairstyling tools

A good hair day can instantly boost your mood, so why not start your self-care Sunday by giving your locks the love they deserve?

Whether you want salon-worthy curls or silky, straight strands, you can master the look at home with a good hairstyling tool. You can use curling irons, straighteners, dryers or stylers to experiment with a bunch of different styles, without the weekday pressure of needing to get out the door.

Look for a tool with multiple settings and attachments so you can switch up your style easily. A lightweight, user-friendly design will also make styling easier, especially if you’re still learning.

Skin-loving beauty devices

Sundays are for giving your skin some extra love using a new beauty device. For a deeper cleanse, try a facial brush. It gently removes dirt, oil and leftover make-up to leave your skin feeling refreshed and clean.

Or why not try a facial sauna to prep your skin to absorb your favourite products? It uses gentle steam to open your pores, making it easier for serums and moisturisers to sink in and work their magic.

Feeling fancy? Treat yourself to a high-tech LED light mask. These futuristic masks, previously reserved for salons, use light therapy to target specific skin concerns, from pimples to fine lines.

Sleek and sporty fitness trackers

Staying active is a huge part of self-care, and a fitness tracker can be your accountability partner in achieving your goals. These days, they go beyond counting steps, tracking your heart rate and even your sleep patterns, so you can get a complete picture of your overall health.

Stress-melting massagers

There’s nothing like a good massage to melt away the tension of a long week. The best part is you don’t need a fancy spa appointment to experience that blissful feeling.

These days, there are rejuvenating and circulation boosting massagers that can turn your home into a personal mini spa. Choose a handheld massager to target tight shoulders, a comfy neck and shoulder massager to ease away tension or a soothing foot massager to pamper your tired toes.

Noise-cancelling headphones

With a pair of noise-cancelling headphones, you can tune out your surroundings and get lost in whatever helps you unwind. Maybe it’s calming music for meditation, a captivating audiobook or your favourite playlist blasting feel-good tunes.

Comfort is also important for a self-care session, so make sure your headphones feel great on your ears. Wireless options are a bonus, allowing you to move around and stretch without getting tangled in cords.
