Weekend Guide

One of our BFF fans asked what could she throw for her and her friends, to just hang out, gossip, and relax? After doing some research we came to one solution: At Home Spa Party. An At Home Spa Party is a chic way to spend quality time with the girls without breaking a budget.

Celebrations.com offered these amazing tid-bits on how you can run a successful At Home Spa Party:

The most important element to a successful at-home spa party lies in the beauty treatments. Set up individual stations with comfortable seating, clear work surfaces and easy-to-view mirrors. Make sure you have four basic stations ready to go, then add others as budget and time allows.

  • hair
  • skin
  • make up
  • manicure/pedicure

Stock each one with a variety of products (collect free samples or buy trial sizes to save money) and directions on treatments or makeup applications.

If your budget allows, consider bringing in a mobile spa to take care of all the details and beauty treatments for you.

There is no need for a sit-down dinner during an at-home spa party, but do plan to serve a variety of finger foods and bite-sized treats like these:

  • turkey/ham roll ups
  • chips & dip
  • fruit
  • mini cheesecakes
  • mini pastries

Once the party gets started, everyone will be busy indulging in spa treatments. Serve appetizers as guests arrive and mingle, then save the desserts for the end. By serving appetizers, food stays separate from beauty products so you can concentrate on getting the most out of each spa treatment without worrying about accidents.

Of course, drinks should be available throughout the night; and cosmopolitans are the perfect drinks for girl’s night out. Add pink daiquiris and chocolate martinis to create a tempting selection of girl cocktails. For a non-alcoholic option, try fruity sodas in old-fashioned glass bottles.

As you and your girlfriends wait for nail polish to dry, face masks to set, and deep conditioner to soak in, you might want something to keep you entertained.

A stack of gossip and fashion magazines encourages chit-chat for an ultimate girls' night out. 

After the pampering is complete, settle down with one of these classic chick flicks.

Another idea is that you and your Gal Pals can also catch up on all of your favorite BFF episodes @ : MySpace.com/BFF. A new episode will air live tomorrow so be sure to check it out!
