It’s important to have a little self care in your life. A lot of people think that means having a pamper session with face masks and sorting your skincare. The reality with self care is doing little things that will make you feel happier and improve your mood. Sometimes it’s good to take time to do things for yourself because we all need to take care of ourselves every now and then.  Here’s a few little things I’ve done to add a little self care in my life. Bubble Bath I do love a bubble bath because sometimes it’s nice to take the time to relax. Add bubbles, put a bath bomb in and watch something in the bath. Especially as the days are getting colder, a nice hot bath does the trick. Putting on comfy clothes I love this time of year because it means I get to make use out of the many jumpers I own. Especially after having a bath, it’s nice to put on a comfy jumper and joggers to make you feel nice and cosy.  Hot beverage Personally, I love drinking coffee. I probably drink way ...

Sometimes you need a pamper session to really refresh your mindset and make you feel relaxed. I thought I’d share what I do during my pamper session so you can either follow along or inspire you to have your own pampering. Let’s get started. For me, having a bath is something that always gets me in the relaxing mood. I got to have a bath bomb so I got this one from Primark. I have quite a collection of bath bombs from Primark. I just think they’re reasonably priced and make a bath more complete. Of course I have bubbles and don’t ask why I have this Matey bubble bath but it makes really good bubbles and it smells of apples.  I also have to watch something while I’m in the bath and decided to watch Mamma Mia Here We Go. I haven’t seen it in a while and bought it on Amazon when it first came out so I decided to give it a watch again. It’s definitely a comfort movie. Not as good as the first one but not a bad sequel either. Plus who doesn’t love listening to ABBA. I washed my hair usi...

We had the morning routine in yesterday's post and now it's time for the evening routine. Let's get started. So my evening started with having a bath as on this particular day was a very stressful day and I wanted to do a little TLC. I always like to have a bath to make me feel relaxed and this definitely helped me feel a bit better. These are the products that I used in the bath. For my hair I used the TRESemme Nourish Coconut Shampoo and Conditioner which I absolutely love as I have oily hair that used to get very greasy and I used to have to wash my hair everyday but since using this shampoo and conditioner, I can now wash my hair every other day. It just makes my hair nice and soft plus makes it feel refreshed every time I use it. I also use the Radox Feel Uplifted shower gel and I love the smell of this plus buying a big bottle really makes it last so long. It's also a 50% recycled plastic bottle so it's also good for the environment. Anyway, I love using these...

Most people don't like rainy days but for me, I love them. Especially on a day off as it gives you the perfect excuse not to go outside. You may as well make the most of the rainy day. Here are a few things I like to do on a rainy day.  1. Make it cosy I like to go all out when it comes to a rainy day. Switch on the fairy lights. Light a candle in my bedroom and just make the room nice and cosy. Even if it means doing a little tidy up to get rid of any clutter laying about, it's worth it in the end. Especially as the inside gets dark and dull when it's rainy plus your main light may be too bright. The perfect balance is the warm glow of some fairy lights and a few candles. Plus if there is a power cut then you won't be affected as you already have candles lit and battery-powered fairy lights. 2. Read a book Honestly, being snuggled up when it's raining outside and having a good book to read is just the perfect feeling. Having the sound of the rain against the window...

I was having a bit of a down day at home because when I was writing this, I recently just got dumped. Sad times but we move on. Coincidently one thing I randomly did was look at my 30 Things To Do Before I'm 30 and one of those things that I hadn't done on that list have a full on pamper party with the works. That is why I thought I'm not going to have a lazy day at home feeling down about how single I am and instead indulge in a bit of self-care. I also thought why not share my little pamper party as inspiration to any of you who need a bit of self-care in your life. This is something you can do on your own (like I did) or even with your close friends.  Here are all the things to do in order to have a relaxing pamper party at home. 1. Set the mood It's no good having a relaxing day if all around you is a cluttered mess. Have a quick tidy up of your bedroom and the bathroom before starting your pamper party then start setting the mood. Put on some fairy lights, light a ...
