BEDSIDE TABLE BEAUTY
Before I catch up on sleep
One of my favourite things to do before bed is have a good old sit-down post-bath pamper. When my make up is off, my face is cleansed- I can snuggle into my pyjamas and get down to some real tender loving care business. I tend to have a little stash of favourites next to my bed that I turn to again and again for those tiny 'treat moments', so I thought I had share some of those with you (judging by size, I'm sure you can understand some have to sleep in my bathroom cabinet)- but you get the just either way. Now sit back, relax, and let's unwind!
Firstly, let's talk balms! The one that I use for pretty much everything (be it cracked skin to dry lips) is this NUXE reve de Miel, which sees me through near enough everything. Paired with this Neal’s YARD Remedies Garden Mint & Bergamot Hands Cream (which is absolutely dreamy and lives in my handbag too), I can ensure that I am baby-soft before bed. I also love painting my nails in my bed (I know this runs the risk of duvet prints on them, but,for your information, this gal is a maverick). My current favourite painting partnership is the Barry M polish in Papaya. I also want to introduce you to this fragrance. I am not one to wear perfume to bed- but because of it's name (and the fact it's one of my total favourites)- I had to include it. Named Botanical Essence No:1 and smelling of 'soft skin and bed linen'- this is my ultimate 'do I have to get up?' Fragrance, and smells as good as the feeling of a freshly made bed.
Next- masks and lotions! When I get the time I love a good mask and body treat before bed- and the number one post-bath contender definitely comes in the shape of this Bath and body works Country CHIC body creme which is pretty much heaven in a blue and yellow tube. It is indulgent and every time my mum steals some I pretty much bellow 'WHAT IS THAT AMAZING SMELL?!' My night time go-to come rain or shine is the Origins GinZing moisturiser (super quick to absorb); and if I am feeling super indulgent I love this Skinesis overnight facial Mask from Sarah Chapman London because nothing says treat like a face covered in serums, right? (and it's super moisturising too. Ahem).
