The sun has been shining and I am here for it. The lighter mornings and brighter evenings of summer create the perfect backdrop for enhancing the perfect summer self-care routine and honestly, I live for the sun. Face masks, evening soaks and watching the sunset, you really can not beat it.
Here is my perfect summer evening self-care routine. Start the evening in the garden with my book. It is my guilty pleasure at the minute. We have just had the gardener in and bought some new furniture so the garden and a good book is where you will find me every evening after dinner.
I am currently reading Flawless By Elsie Silvers, equal parts of romance, spice and drama, have you read it?.
Time for the longest soak in the world. I am currently using the Lush Bridgerton range and the bath bombs smell incredible. They have a summer sale on at the minute which is the first one they have had and you bet I took advantage of that and stocked up my stash. Face masks are a must for me, i use so many different ones but the LED facelift face mask has been my holy grail for a while now.
smother yourself in your favourite body butter, the best part after a bath!.
These masks use light therapy to enhance your skin’s appearance, reduce wrinkles, and promote a radiant glow. These masks leave you feeling like you've had a spa-like experience at home.
Investing in some beautiful lingerie that makes you feel confident is a form of self-care that often gets overlooked. Treat yourself to some pieces that flatter your figure, all figures are beautiful and we all should feel amazing in our own skin :)
LH Boutique have some stunning pieces in a variety of colours. Their gorgeous plum colour sets are so pretty and look amazing. They also have a little sale on too.
Snacks and a good beverage before I hit my bedroom. I am obsessed with fruit salads in the evening. Summer is here and all the colours of the rainbow in a bowl of fruit are so good for you. Peaches, strawberries, raspberries, and then a big cup of tea that will last the night.
Now my holy grail - Love Island. My guilty pleasure and I am not mad about it. Salt lamp on, snacks and an hour of Love Island is the best self-care you are going to get this summer, If you haven't tried it then do, you can thank me later :)
What does your summer self-care routine look like...
I've heard of light therapy but I am yet to try it. I am actually very intrigued by how this would work. I will buy one soon.
ReplyDeleteA good book and a long soak always do wonders for me. I think I'll take a bath this afternoon, actually.
ReplyDeleteI love having a selfcare day and I'm like you, a long bath with a book and a good smelling bath bomb sets the tone just right. I will say I do need to have more selfcare days and I too love watching a good sunset
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a great evening routine for the summer. I would love to try a light face mask. Is this something that can be used on a daily basis?
ReplyDeleteI love giving myself a mini facial in the evening and sitting down for an episode or two of Traitors. It's the perfect way to spend an evening in my book
ReplyDeleteI had no idea Lush were doing a summer sale, I bet I've missed out on everything. I've not read any of the Chestnut springs series yet, but I own them all, I'm glad you're enjoying x
ReplyDeleteI only have a very simple skin care routine... but i do smother myself with body butter after bath! I love that hydrating hug!
ReplyDeleteI love the summer evenings too. Sitting outside, fresh fruit salads and a nice drink. Then I also love to have a little skincare routine too. It is so lovely!
ReplyDeleteBody butter after a bath is the best. Especially true if it's right before bed. It's nice to fall asleep to deliciousness.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a very relaxing summer evening routine. I haven't read Flawless, yet. I will have to check it out. -Lynndee
