Creating Her Own Spa Experience
Lively’s photo featured her lounging in a cozy robe, surrounded by dim lighting that set an intimate, ‘spa-like’ atmosphere. She cleverly noted the ambiance was courtesy of her kids’ star projector, which she humorously confessed to ‘stealing’ for her relaxation time. Notably, she wore a red-light skin therapy mask while showcasing a setup that included a full face mask, collagen eye masks, and several sheet masks strategically placed along the sides of her nose.
Reflecting on her skincare journey, Lively quipped about missing the simplicity of the 2000s when all she needed was a gentle hand soap featuring playful fish characters. “I miss the 2000s when we just used that [hand soap] with the fish characters on it on our face & called it a day,” she fondly reminisced, providing a contrast to her current intricate regimen.
