Light some candles and start up a romantic playlist, so you can warm up together in a nice relaxing bath with some soothing milk (2 cups) and honey (½ cup) to sweeten and soften the skin. Scrub each other down with a homemade exfoliation blend of 1 cup of brown sugar (1 cup), white sugar (1/2 cup), olive oil (1/4 cup) and a dash of your favorite essential oil. Warm some towels in the dryer beforehand to keep the mood nice and hot when you move on to the bedroom for a massage. If you have a heated blanket, lay towels on top to complete the at-home spa experience while you rub each other’s tensions away. Finish off with some champagne or sparkling wine and fresh fruit. You’ll be ooohing and ahhhing for many days to come!
