The moment you wake up in the morning, when you haven’t even opened your eyes still, that’s the moment I start thinking for the day, and it’s the moment I realize the mood I’m in for that day.
Lately I am happy to say that I wake up with a smile, and well rested, and I think that’s because I recently quite smoking and drinking my ass off, so my body can actually take a break and enjoy it’s time. Healthy lifestyle is now my routine and after I open my eyes, and stretch for a bit, I get to spend a little time in bed, chill a few minutes with my boyfriend before we start the day.
Starting the day for us means separation, since he has to go to work, so we really appreciate the little time we have there.
Drinking water in the morning gets you started. Your brain needs to be notified, your body has to move now, and so, you have to give the signals. Your will is stronger!
I drink some water, and then I head to the bathroom for some morning skincare treat, and this part is one of my favorites.
I first brush my teeth, and then I’m using a cleansing butter from The Body Shop that I find to be divine.
This product is, by far, the best I have ever used to take my make up off. But you know, maybe you got home late at night, tired, and dizzy, so you failed to clean your skin perfectly, so this is a key product to use in the morning as well. You can find it here https://bit.ly/3LMRj7p , and please try it out, your skin will thank you, and me for introducing this !
Then I wash my face with Drops of Youth, Gentle Foaming Wash Mousse, with plant stem cells. This mousse is so refreshing, you can actually feel your skin breathing after you wash it. Takes away all the grease off your face, from your night sleep, and leaves you with a smooth, soft surface to work your make up later. You wont even need to put primer on, unless of course it is an essential of yours. This product is heavenly, and I thank The Body Shop for inventing this dreamy mousse.

The next thing I use, after my skin is dry and clean, is a lip balm from ACO, with vitamin E and a vanilla scent, it’s softening my lips and gives me that delicious scent that I then complement with my favorite body mist from The Body Shop, with coconut flavor.

After cleaning my face, I run to the coffee maker and make our coffee. We get dressed until our coffee is ready, and then we have our breakfast.
After these hot cups of coffee and maybe some biscuits or yogurt in the morning, my boyfriend, Alex has to go to work, which is 15-20′ away from home, so most days we walk together to his office, and I come home to drink more caffeine and start working myself.
Most days I start by doing a little bit of at home yoga or just a low impact workout, for about 30-40′, and I start working on my social media, sketching and studying until around noon, when is the time for me to prepare lunch!
So that’s it, of course, some days I wont walk with Alex in the morning, and maybe I’ll skip the workout, or just do it later in the day, or maybe some days do HIIT workouts or go to the gym later in the day as well. But mainly, some self-care and company in the mornings is all I need.
