My self care Sunday

We love a good self care day!

Lately I have really been prioritizing my health and wellness, which means self care days are a must. I usually do my self care days on Sunday, but you can do them any day of the week. What I do on my self care days can vary, but here is the routine I did this past week as an idea:

1. Reading

I’ve been trying to read more, especially self improvement kind of books. I started off by reading a chapter in my book and just relaxing. This is also such a nice break from watching tv.

2. Bath

We loveee a good bubble bath! I don’t take a bath very often but when I do I add an organic bath bomb to release some calming essential oils. This one in particular is a lavender bath bomb. I would also highly suggest buying an organic one as some have harmful chemicals in them that can throw your hormones off.

3. Cozy robe

I’m obsessed with my Skims robe and wear it whenever I’m getting out of the shower or just getting ready for the day. It’s so comfy and makes you feel like you’re getting a hug from a big teddy bear.

4. Face oil

I use this Youth to the People face oil right before I gua sha to keep my face nice and hydrated. This also leaves a beautiful glow to my skin.

5. Gua sha

Lately I have been using this chrome gua sha I bought from Amazon and really love it! As I mentioned, I use a face oil before I gua sha so that it glides across from face easier for the best results. I love the benefits from using a gua sha, especially for lymphatic drainage.

6. Face mask

Okay this face mask might be my favorite mask I’ve ever used, it’s SO good! This is an Egyptian rise peel off mask that I purchased from the local spa I go to here in Columbus. It was so much fun to make, it comes in the form of a powder and you just mix in some water to get the jelly consistency. After 20 minutes it peels off in one piece, like magic. This is also made from organic ingredients which is also a plus.

What’s your self care routine?
