Little things that make me feel better

Good evening my loves. I am currently suffering from a terrible cold and feel awful about myself. I'm laying on my bed with my laptop, my cat by my side and a whole box of tissues. Whenever I'm feeling like crap, I like to think of ways to cheer me up and make me feel my best.

♡ FIRST STEP!
I love making a playlist that makes me feel good and energetic. They say music is the key to changing one's mood, so singing and dancing to a couple of songs can truly make you feel a whole lot better. My current 'feel good' song is "Good For You" by Selena Gomez & A$AP ROCKY.

♡ SECOND STEP!
Something strange I have discovered is wearing undergarments that match. There's something satisfying to me knowing that I'm wearing a matching underwear set. It honestly makes me go about my day feeling confident.

♡ THIRD STEP!
Make up is a wonderful thing. There is evidently nothing wrong about wearing no make up - I love not wearing make up. However, I enjoy accentuating my features to make me feel a lot better about myself. A bright lip always makes me feel better.

♡ FOURTH STEP!
Staying hydrated is so important for our overall health and well-being. I find when I drink a lot of water, I feel good on the inside, glow on the out and look and feel so much brighter and awake. DRINK A GLASS OF WATER NOW!

♡ FIFTH STEP!
As well as staying hydrated, eating well makes me feel real good. What you eat truly reflects on your physical, mental and emotional state. I find that when I eat lots of fruits, veggies and carbs, I feel so energised and happy! Smoothies are my everything, oh and sweet potatoes!

Those are just some little things that make me feel better about myself.

2015 July Favourites ♡


Okay, July went by way too fast! I'm pretty excited that it's August because (1) my birthday is in 2 months and (2) I can't wait for the warmer weather. This post is a little later than usual, but better late than ever.


♡ Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette: I included this in my last post, and talked about how much I love Urban Decay eyeshadows because they're so buttery and easy to work with. This palette has been my latest obsession when it comes to eyeshadows. The palette is perfect for everyday eye looks; it comes with 6 neutral shades including my favourite "venus", which is amazing for high lighting the inner corner of the eye/brow bone area.


♡ Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation: As well as the eyeshadow palette, I mentioned this in my last post. I included how I remember using this foundation a while ago and how I loved it. I decided to try it out again this past month and I have been loving it. It gives the skin a beautifull glow, which has been a necessity this winter because my skin has been looking dull. It's light weight, build-able and overall a really lovely product.


♡ REVLON Colorburst Matte Balm in "225 Sultry": This lip colour is stunning! It's a deep pink with a slight brown undertone. It's the perfect shade for day/night wear, which I love. The formula is really creamy and comfortable to wear on the lips. It also smells like peppermint! Lip crayons are probably my favourite lip products because they're really easy to apply.


♡ Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick in "077 Asia": I have been in-love with this lipstick recently. I've had it for a while now, and I recall mentioning it in favourites post before. It's a beautiful pinky-mauve shade; it's glides on really easily and has good lasting power on the lips. I love Rimmel lipsticks and this has to be my all-time favourite!

Music:

Alone Together - Fall Out Boy
Young Volcanoes - Fall Out Boy
My Songs' Know What You Did In The Dark - Fall Out Boy


Movie:

The Theory Of Everything

That is all this month my loves, hope you have an amazing August
