We figure winter is about staying warm and staying in but that doesn't mean you have to give up on the fun. What can be more fun than inviting your besties over for some pigging out, dancing, gossing, and beauty treating? So, to set all our boos in the mood, Jess and Lizzi hosted a girls night in - here's their guide to having fun with the girls.
We all had an absolutely fantastic time at our Girls Night In. Everyone agreed that a girl's night is the perfect antidote for stress. We all had a hilarious time - dancing like idiots and pigging out on food that will probably literally bite us on the bum later. But hey, it was worth i!
The girls who were part of our Girls Night In were myself and Lizzi (of course!), Emma Walsh, Ruth Travena and Katy J. They are all gorgeous girls with fantastic personalities. We couldn't have invited better friends! Regrets that our friend Hannah Day had to leave before we started the girls night. We wish she could have been there too! So thank you to the girls that took part J
The most essential component of your girl's night is your friends. You'd be having a pretty boring night without them. However, the friends you choose can either make or break your night.
You need to invite fun-loving girls that are prepared to join in and have a great time. Don't invite any friends that won't be willing to take part in the activities you plan for your girl's night.
Food is obviously a must have. You do not want your guests to starve! Lizzi and I chose some tasty nibbles, such as chips, nachos and party pies. You could also order pizza. Finger food is the best as you won't be sitting down very often - unless you have the dreaded dancing stitch! Have plenty of drinks, such as soft drink and juice available, but don't allow them too much sugary fluid or they'll be bouncing off the walls!
Music is essential for your girl's night. Bellabbo supplied Lizzi and I with a range of different styles of music. This is best as your guests can then choose their preferred style instead of you choosing for them. Try your best to get your friends to dance, because if you do we can guarantee you'll have fun!
All the girls agreed that testing the products out was heaps of fun, so try and organise a few goodies for your guests to try such as face masks, fake nails, body butters, pedicure kits etc.
It's a great way to pamper each other and you have heaps of fun. Even better if you each get some beauty booty to take home!
Make sure you have heaps of pillows, blankets, chocolate, lollies and a healthy dose of good old chick flicks to create the perfect environment for a girl's night in.
Some good games to play are ones like Truth or Dare, card games, Monopoly and Singstar. Singstar especially! Guaranteed to make you laugh!
Your guests must feel completely comfortable so make sure you ask them what they would like to do and don't force them to do anything they do not want to do.
We had a fabulous time and hope you do to! Check out our vid and laugh your head off!!!
Bellaboo's Ultimate Girl's Night in Pampering Guide!

Pedi/Mani
Get your party started with pedis and manis. Yeah, ok, the thought of
touching other people's feet is a bit gross but do as the salons do
and get a big bowl of hot water, throw in some Body Shop Peppermint
Cooling Soak ($23.95) - it helps to relax feet whilst making
sure they are squeaky clean and smelling minty and pop on The
Body Shop Exfoliating Gloves ($8.95)! That way no skin contact
with your bestie's feet! Get girls to place their toots into said bowl
and let the pedi begin!
Grab a Sugarbaby Pedi Set ($19.95). This little kit gives you all the tools you need for a truly professional pedi. This little baby has a fab foot soak, foot scrub, which we used with The Body Shop Pumice Stone ($1.95) to slough away all that nasty dead, course skin. Finish with a relaxing foot massage with the remedy foot cream. Pop on the treatment socks and you have some seriously pampered toots.
So now your feet are smooth and soft, whip out a too glam Glamourflage Foxy Fay Nail File ($12.95) and file those nails into shape. The Body Shop's Big Nail Shiner ($3.95) will buff nails to high gloss status.
Finish with your chosen nail shade. Or try some falsies for a quick fix and totally professional look. We went the Chemcorp French Mani for hands ($17.95) and feet ($14.95).
For hands, soak nails in water with some essential oil, file them with Miss Foxy Fay and then buff them. Lather in some Body Shop Almond Oil Hand Rescue Treatment ($17.95) for a super treat that will leave your hands and nails in top condition! Apply a base coat to nails, follow with your shade, then a top coat.

Facial
Who doesn't love a facial but a limited teen budget doesn't really stretch
to this little indulgence. So, treat your besties to a facial - it's
really easy. Of course, we used the fab Bellaboo.
Start with a good cleanse to get rid of dirt and bacteria with Bellaboo All That Clean Skin Facial Wash ($16.95) - leaves skin feeling squeaky clean.
Next, a good exfoliation will leave skin smooth and glowing. Use Bellaboo Buff Skin Facial Exfoliator ($19.95) with its super fine exfoliating beads to buff away dead cells and leave skin super smooth and seriously glowing!
A mask is next on the list. We smothered our faces in Glamourflage Mia Sublime Face Mask ($25.95). Trust us, this little treat will have you looking and feeling as sublime as Mia!
We also tried and loved The Body Shop Vitamin C Rexturising Mask ($30.95). This gel mask with a zesty fragrance gently peeled away dead cells to leave skin super smooth and heaps fresher! Another huge hit Yes To Carrots Exfoliating and Soothing Mud Mask proves why carrots are sooooo good for you!
Finish with a heap of moisturiser, massaged into the face. You can't go past Bellaboo Gorgeous Skin Moisture Dew ($24.95) for intense moisture and gorgeousness!
Oh, wack some lip lovin' onto those smackers. We played with Glamourflage Lotus Lily Lip Balm ($10.95) and Body Collection Vanilla Lip Balm ($4.95)

Smooth Operator
OK it may be winter girls but that doesn't mean that your body becomes
a forest wasteland. No-one likes waxing but trust us it becomes a whole
lot easier and fun when there's besties, party food, and music involved.
So, wax away and help your peeps have luscious legs and gorgeous brows.
We loved 1000 Hour Wax Strips ($5.95-$9.95).
Give the legs a little exfoliation after the wax - this will stop ingrown hairs and leave skin super smooth. But just be sure to leave time between waxing and exfoliating so that skin can calm down. We loved The BodyShop Pink Grapefruit Body Scrub ($27.95), Body Collection Mango Shea Butter Body Polish ($9.95) and Glamourflage Sexy Sadie Body Scrub ($25.95).
Finish your leg treat with a luscious body cream or butter. Use heaps so that you can give them a little foot and leg massage while applying the lotion. We played with and loved Body Shop Brazil Body Butter ($27.95) and Glamourflage Vera Vamp Body Cream ($29.95).
Trust us, after this pampering session your peeps will be loving your hospitality and you will be feeling warm and fuzzy, despite the cold weather!
