Doing the Brazilian.

No one who has ever had hair ripped from their crotch has called getting a bikini wax easy. Still, if you’re staying at home all day to combat Coronavirus and you’re feeling like you need a wax, experts say it is doable.

According to an interview with Harper’s Bazaar and Natalie Ismiel, a brand ambassador for the hair-removal brand Nad’s it’s important to “be sure to look for a product that specifically says Brazilian on the packaging, as not all formulas are suitable for this sensitive area. For a first timer, it might be easiest to use a hard wax, as strip waxes are a little bit more difficult to do on your own and take practice.”

Going full-on mani-pedi.

A good mani-pedi will require some tools you might not have at home but plenty you already will have available. To start, you’ll want to soak your feet and hands in bathwater. You can buy cheap epsom salt to soak and soften your skin. Use a hard foot brush to slough off any skin, and then apply a cuticle serum to your toenails before you polish your nails. Don’t forget this last part! It will do wonders for ensuring the longevity of your paint job.

How to give yourself the ultimate facial.

Start your facial by creating a clean canvas to start on by cleaning your skin with a cleansing lotion or gel. Then apply a thin coat of an exfoliating peel with exfoliating acids like lactic, glycolic, or salicylic. Leave on for 5 minutes and then wash off thoroughly. Once the peel has been removed go in with a second exfoliator by applying a facial scrub to your skin. When you’re done be sure to apply a moisturizer!
