Did you know that the average woman has a circle of four to six friends? As you grow older, you may notice that you only have a handful of friends who stick around, through the good times and bad.
Have you ever thought about hosting a girls’ night to celebrate your friendship with the closest people in your life? Here are some of the best ideas for your next girls’ night in, to make it more memorable than ever.
Stock up on Easy Snacks
What is a girl’s night in without tons of delicious snacks? You can use the event as a perfect excuse to indulge in all of your preferred junk foods.
Before you host your girl’s night in, ask everyone if they have a favorite snack that you can buy at the grocery store. That way you will have them all prepared before anyone walks through the door.
Put on a Movie
Nothing goes better with good snacks like a movie. Chick flicks are always a good choice for a girl’s night in, and they are universally liked.
Before your party, you can send out a survey to ask people what types of movies they prefer. That way, you can put on something that everyone will enjoy.
If you want to go crazy, you can even try watching a good series back to back. Some of the most popular movie parties include Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter.

Sing Your Heart Out

If you want to go crazy, you can host a charcuterie-themed party. Everyone can bring their favorite snacks on a custom charcuterie board and you will not have to worry about providing food.
Create a Custom Cocktail
Bring your girl’s night in up to the next level by including booze. Wine is a staple, but if you want to be more creative, you can invent a custom cocktail with some of your favorite ingredients.

Do Face Masks
You can always stick with one of the original girls’ night ideas, and that is doing face masks and having a spa night. You can buy pre-made face masks at the store which contain ingredients to nourish your skin.
To have a more inventive night, you can try making your own face masks. Natural ingredients such as oatmeal and coffee grounds will help to exfoliate your skin and you will not have to worry about allergies or skin irritation.

To bring it up a notch, grab your favorite wine and indulge during the painting party. You can buy a few varieties so that everyone has a type of wine that they enjoy.
Play Some Fun Games
