Weekend Getaway - At Home
How have you been treating yourself?
I have definitely been in a bit of a funk lately. Neglecting basic household chores, not doing my morning workouts and forgoing my skincare routines!
As a result, I am starting to see some weight coming in and my outer appearance is just different. Rather then continue down this path I wanted to take a look at the things I could control.
When I'm feeling a little down, one of the things I like to do to pick myself up is treat my self! Treating yourself can mean different things to different people and even different things for the same person depending on the experience you are having.
For me, treating myself at times means, turning off my phone and spending an hour vibing to some music, eating my favorite food, spending a little extra time in the shower, purchasing a car.....that last one is bit extreme but you know what I mean!
When I thought about the last time I did something just for me, it had been a while! As I reflect on the question I am asking you, my reader
How have you been treating yourself?
The answer for me is: Not at all
I love when my nails are done and my eyebrows are arched! It is the little things on the exterior that really helps lighten up my mood.
Healing needs to begin from within and for me there are things I feel like I can do on the exterior to really brighten up my mood and get some positive vibes flowing.
I recently received a wonderful gift from a brand reserved + polished. This gift was right on time! The brand owner Rachel reached out after finding me on instagram and reading a few blog post. This definitely warmed my heart because it is exactly why I started this journey a few months ago. I wanted to make connections with brands and spend time writing about what I enjoy. Skincare, Self Love and of course Food!
The gift boxes included a nail and face kit, that makes for a perfect at home spa day!

When I opened up this kit I immediately started to think about which products from it I wanted to incorporate in my next self pampering day.
My "how to" guide for self pampering:
My eyebrows are getting out of control so I try to protect my arch by plucking away the strays! (Note: The tweezer is not included in the kit)
Once I'm arched, I love to follow up with a warm towel and light cleanser to soften up my skin.
Pat dry, then apply a nice face mask for deep hydration!
Products used from the kit:
~Facial Sheet Mask
~Lip Mask
~Chamomile Night Oil
