MY QUICK& EASY PAMPER ROUTINE

As a mum, I find it difficult to find time to pamper myself. So once a week in an evening, I try to set some time aside to pamper(even if it is only 30 minutes). Whilst this isn't always doable for me, I try to do it as often as I can. I think having a little time to pamper always makes me feel good. So I figured I'd share my quick and easy pamper routine with you.

One of the most important things for me when I'm going to pamper is, to set the mood. Getting the environment right for relaxation is key. I love to surround myself with flowers and candles. My candle of choice at the moment would have to be Diptyque Baies Candle and flowers of choice would be pink/red roses obviously. I also like to make myself a cup of peppermint tea and get myself a bottle of ice cold water.

Next, it's time to remove my makeup. I'm going to use my Tri-Peptide Deep Cleanser and Intelligent Toner from Purelogicol.  These work great at cleansing, toning and detoxifying the skin. My skin is left feeling smoothhhh and hydrated.

Once my skin is clear of makeup I'm going to use the Keeome Hydration Therapy Mask for a cheaper alternative why not try Garnier Moisture Bomb Tissue Mask. You can find this for 99p in Boots usually, so there's no excuse not to pamper!


Now it's time to run a nice bubble bath, of course, it wouldn't be a pamper evening without a Lush bath bomb and melt. I'd recommend throwing in Ladybird Bubble Bar and Cupid Bath Bomb. Are you feeling pampered yet? I'm using Patisserie-De-Bain Shower Creme Lemon Bon-Bon this smells delicious if you love sherbety sweetness! Once I'm out the bath it doesn't stop there, I've opted for Patisserie-De-Bain Body Lotion Lemon Bon Bon not only do they smell delicious, they are also really affordable. They are stocked in Superdrug to so you can collect beauty card points.

I then like to prep my teeth. There is nothing more beautiful than a bright white smile. I personally love this PopSmile Teeth Whitening Pen it's affordable, convenient and it works. It is great for a quick boost but if you're looking for a full kit, check out my full review with before and afters here. You won't be disappointed!

I always get my nails done, but if I didn't now would be the time I'd paint them. My go-to brand for nail polish is Ciate London, I've always found they just work well for me, I like to stick to what I know. My shade suggestions would have to be, Dangerous Affair and Iced Frappe

Once your nails are dry, it's time for a head massage. I love giving myself a head massage. They are free and encourage hair growth. Oh and super relaxing. If you have someone who will give you a head massage, it makes it so much more relaxing, but for me, my partner would tell me to, how should I put it? do one

Now would be the time for an overnight hair mask, I personally love warming up coconut oil and combing it through, and wrapping it in a towel or turby towel thingy-ma-bob and now it is time to stop faffing and go grab yourself a fresh tea and relax.

Why not read a book about not giving a F**K whilst you relax? This is the perfect pamper routine for me.

How do you like to pamper yourself? What are your go to pamper products?

  4. I loved this article! It is so important to pamper yourself. Mine usually consists of a bath and a face mask and a good book! I try to make cleansing my face at the end of the day like a mini pamper session as well, it is my favourite thing to do once I get home from work xx

  5. What a great post. I love pampering myself. I mostly do it on Sundays and just take some time for me. But sometimes it's also nice to get a a little mask on during the week.
    Have a great day.

    1. Awwww you sweetie! I was a little unsure on them. I usually take them myself with my tripod and remote but my partner took these. They are a little out of focus and not 100 percent but he did so well for his first attempt. Especially considering I'm super fussy!

  12. I am so gutted this book is out of stock everywhere here in Dubai, can't wait to get my hands on it. Speaking of your routine, it is so lovely (and so is your gorgeous bed lol). I love the idea of a good head massage, I find it helps with hair fallout too. Lovely post dear!

  14. I also try my best to pamper myself at least once a week, usually it happens to be a sunday, and I take a little more time than usual to scrub my body and my face, moisturize better, and treat my skin. Lush and Pixi have been my favs recently, too. xx
