5 Snack/Skincare Pairings for the Ultimate Night In
Clay Mask + Chia Seed Pudding
Slather on a hefty helping of your favorite goo (we like GlamGlow SuperMud), and satisfy your sweet tooth with some yummy dessert while you wait for it to dry. This gluten-free, dairy-free pudding is soft enough to enjoy even when the mask starts to make your skin so tight you can hardly open your mouth.Chia Seed Pudding
Serves 3 1 cup coconut milk ¼ cup whole chia seeds 1 tbsp. maple syrup ¼ tsp. vanilla extract ¼ tsp. cinammon- Combine all ingredients except chia seeds in a large bowl.
- Whisk in chia seeds slowly.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
UFO + 1-Minute Guacamole
This duo is all about making the most of your time, and combines two champions of self-indulgence — face masks and guacamole. Treat yourself to a full LED photofacial and smart mask treatment in 90 seconds (seriously) with UFO. Add some guac, and you’ve got the perfect little fiesta for one.1-Minute Guacamole
Serves 1 ½ avocado ¼ lemon pinch of salt pinch of cumin pinch of garlic powder- In a bowl, smash avocado with a fork.
- Mix in lemon juice and seasonings.
- Serve with baby carrots.
Body Butter + Popcorn
We often spend so much time worrying about taking care of our faces that we forget about the other 90% of our skin. So, slather yourself in L'Occitane Shea Butter Ultra Rich Body Cream and marinate while you binge-watch Black Mirror. For a skin-friendly snack, skip the hydrogenated oil and hidden chemicals in microwave popcorn — pop your own! Simply place kernels in a paper bag, fold the top down, and microwave for a few minutes. Insider tip: sprinkle paprika and cayenne pepper on top for a zesty kick of flavor.Bubble Bath + Cookies
Honestly, is there a better way to spend a night in than with a long, hot bubble bath and some homemade cookies? We think not. While you’re waiting for these delicious gluten-free cookies to cool, pour a capful of Dr. Teal’s Foaming Bath under hot water and soak in pure bliss. If bubbles aren’t really your thing, try a moisturizing bath oil like this one from Diptyque.Body Scrub + Kale Chips
The best way to combat dry winter skin? Exfoliate. Slough off that cracked wintry shell with Coco Rose Coconut Oil Body Polish and satisfy your crunchy-goodness cravings with kale chips. Follow the recipe below for a healthy late night snack or just pick up these nacho kale chips and skip the whole cooking thing.Baked Kale Chips
