After a long week at work, there’s nothing better to do on a weekend than some self-pampering. Of course, you don’t have to bust your bank account just for an hour of me-time. Here are eight treatments that allow you to revitalise your senses for less than $200.
Face: For when you don’t have the time or moolah to book an appointment, treat yourself at home with Korean beauty brand Innisfree’s Super Volcanic Pore Clay Mask ($21). It can minimise pores, control sebum, exfoliate, cleanse, brighten and cool skin.
