Hello Everyone! How was your February? Mine was nice and productive. I decided on a slightly new direction career wise with my blogging and finally got myself a blog button/logo (do you like it?) I fell in love as soon as I saw the design. I wanted it to be something happy and calming, which is how I want you to feel after reading my blog : ) Here are some of my other lifestyle loves for the month:
Lush Montalbano Shampoo Bar
I'm a big fan of these bars, I love that there's no packaging and they're so easy for travel. I needed to buy a new one so I decided to try something new. The scent of this one sold me straight away. It has Sicilian Lemon Oil as one of the main ingredients and makes it smell like sherbert lemons. I can't resist citric scents! With olives and rosemary as well, it does a great job on my hair and leaves it feeling so lovely and fresh again.
Lush Roses All The Way Soap
How beautiful is this!? When I saw it in the shop I grabbed one immediately because it was so pretty. I'm not usually a big fan of rose scents but this one isn't too over-powering and I find it really calming. It's one of those Sunday morning soaps to get you feeling relaxed for the day. And with coconut oil as one of the main ingredients, it makes your skin feel great too!
Body Shop Mango Whip
I actually bought this ages ago, but stopped using it after a while for some reason. I recently started showering at the gym and I needed a moisturizer to take with me and this one is perfect. I love the consistency of these, they're not too thick or thin and it leaves your skin super soft. I'm also obsessed with anything mango, so this puts me in such a good mood when I use it : )
Vaseline Intensive Care Spray Moisturizer "Cocoa Glow"
One downside to running outside so much is that I now have a tan line that follows the sports tops I wear and cuts off at my ankles...it's so bad guys! It also means that moisturizing is especially important too. I managed to find a solution for both problems, and I'm really happy with this product. I think the best part is that it smells like a coconut dream!
Boxing
So I've seen a few people at my gym having boxing lessons and it looked like so much fun, and such a good workout too. I wasn't sure at first, but now I'm so glad that I got over my nerves and booked myself a lesson. It was seriously fun and actually really satisfying! The only bad part was sweating so much and I couldn't wipe it off because of the gloves. Gross, but I'm hooked already and went out to buy myself some gloves. It's so important to change up your workouts and this should be a great addition to my routine!
Teen Wolf
It was about this time last year that I became obsessed with this show and I ended up watching about four seasons in a couple of weeks (one of my life achievements, really.) Season 5 has been out for a little while but it looked so intense that I had to brace myself before jumping back into the supernatural dramas of Beckon Hills. This season is just as dark and twisted with enough mystery to keep me watching more episodes. It's the type of show that will keep you on the edge of your seat the entire time. I wouldn't recommend watching it alone at night-time, as I have now learned...
Fuller House
Being a 90s kid I grew up watching Full House and loved it so much. My Mum actually named me after Stephanie from the show because she loved how feisty and tough she was. Even now she's my favorite character! I was pretty excited when they announced a revival and I'm so happy with how it's turned out! Go watch it : )
What did you love in February?
