Have an evening in and pamper yourself. You can relax with just you or invite a group of friends over, to try a range of facials and foot scrubs. There's no need to go out and buy expensive products, why not make your own homemade beauty products with things you can find in your kitchen, like orange and lemon scrub and avocado face mask.

Taking time out and nurturing your body can reduce your stress levels, which can lead to digestive problems, so remember taking time out really is a great way to give your body some TLC.

For the orange and lemon scrub:

This scrub IS ideal FOR oily skin because it's quick and easy to make and you can use it to exfoliate both your face and your body.

Oranges and lemons are mildly acidic, helping to reduce excess sebum that blocks pores causing infections, spots and blemishes.

Oatmeal will HELP TO gently dislodge dead cells, dirt AND grim. Altogether this IS a great mix that'll LEAVE your skin fresh AND glowing.

The recipe

• 4 tbsp of finely ground oatmeal
• 1 tsp of lemon juice
• 1 tsp of fresh orange juice

Mix ALL the ingredients together AND LEAVE them IN an airtight container FOR 2-3 hours. Take a handful of scrub AND mix it WITH a touch of water just TO moisten it BEFORE massaging INTO your skin. Rinse off WITH warm water.
