Since the week has a habit of getting tiring and stressful, my Friday nights almost always end in a bath. At the end of the week, the things I use in the bath are different from what I use everyday. You'll see down below what I mean.
Listen. I KNOW that this is Thursday. I'm not crazy. I just really wanted to write this post, and I have plans tomorrow! Sorry!
So, to begin, obviously, I draw up a nice warm bath! It feels so good after you've been out in the cold.
Since I use product in my hair every day, I know that by the end of the week, it is starting to get weighted down. So, I deep-clean it with this (as recommended by Missglammorazzi on YouTube) :
Literally all this shampoo does is strip your hair clean and leave it natural. Since it's a little rough on the hair, I follow up with a deep conditioning masque. This one is a mud masque, and it smells great!
It is recommended that this conditioner stays in your hair for 5 minutes before rinsing. It makes your hair feel super soft and moisturized.
Next, I shave. Now, I have been shaving with conditioner for a while now, and I gotta say, I love it. I don't buy whole bottles specifically for shaving, but, like this one, I will use up the shampoo that goes with it, but more of both, and have half a bottle of conditioner left.
This leaves your legs feeling incredibly smooth and smelling awesome!
My green razor. Not much to say here.
After I'm all hair-free, I follow up with a body scrub from Bath and Body Works. This stuff smells and feels incredible.
After my body, I gotta get my face clean. I start with this stuff, which is a daily scrub and a mask from Boots. At the end of the week, I use it as a 5 minute mask. I get my face as dry as possible, and then apply it, as the instructions say. I leave it for 5 minutes, then rinse! It feels awesome!
Then I follow up with my daily foaming cleanser from the brand Simple. I HIGHLY recommend it.
And that's it for the bath! When I get out and dry off, I finish up my facial cleansing, which normally consists of makeup removing wipes, eye makeup remover, and toner, but I seem to be out of everything but the toner. I usually use Simple cleansing wipes and Maybelline oil-free waterproof eye makeup remover.
This is the toner I use, from Boots. I apply it with exfoliating cotton rounds.
Next, I get all moisturized, using the greatest smelling lotion in the world from Bath and Body Works.
Now, I'm finally ready to put on my pjs and crawl in bed! My mom got me these super cozy pajamas. It's a long flannel button-down, and sort of waffle-textured leggings. I don't wear the leggings to sleep because the shirt is very much long enough, and sleeping in the leggings stretches them out.
Yay for being comfy and cozy!
Now, let's make it the best night in ever.
First, light a candle:

Second, grab refreshments:
Third, put on your favorite VHS:

Fourth, make your bed all cozy:
(Don't ya just wanna curl up in it?)
Fifth, turn the lights out and write a blog post! (Or do whatever you want to do.)
Hooray! Yay for the weekend!
Thanks so much for reading! I am so excited to get started on writing again for 2014!
