1. What do you like to watch or read during me-time?
Since I tend to have Netflix on in the background whilst I’m writing or organising, I like to use my ‘me time’ to catch up on shows I’m behind on. Game Of Thrones, The Walking Dead, Orphan Black, Bob’s Burgers or It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia are the ones I usually go to. Reading is my first choice though, so if I’m halfway through reading a book I’ll of course pick that up and read a couple of chapters. I actually need some book suggestions if anyone has any good ones to recommend!
2. What do you wear during me-time?
Whatever I’ve worn during the day I suppose, although it has to be comfy.
3. What are your favourite me-time beauty products?
I currently have two face masks on the go: Boots’ Tea Tree & Witch Hazel Charcoal Face Mask and the Gatineau Melatogenine Face Mask. The charcoal mask is a bit messy so I’ll only use that if I’m getting a bath. I then use the Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm, but that’s where my skin care routine falters because I’m a bit careless when it comes to moisturiser. I usually just use whatever I happen to have bought last time I went shopping. I’m currently using Nivea Soft which is one of the few moisturisers that doesn’t make me break out, so it’s a definitely a favourite for me. I’m not sure if it counts as a beauty product but about two weeks ago I tried an Argan Oil Foot Pack and I would highly recommend them: my feet have never been so soft.
4. Current favourite nail polish?
I have absolutely loads of nail polish but I always go back to the Rimmel 60 Seconds line. I particularly love Breakfast In Bed and Oragasm from the Rita Ora collection, especially now that it’s summer. The one nail polish I currently have on is Diamonds In The Sky and that’s really nice.
5. What do you eat or drink during me-time?
I don’t really have a sweet tooth so I usually skip the food, unless I’m really hungry in which case I’m getting a pizza. Drinkwise it can range from coffee or camomile & honey tea to wine.
6. Current favourite candle?
I just discovered a new favourite: Fluffy Towels by Yankee Candle, but my longtime love is Primark Home’s Vanilla & Coconut candle.
7. Do you ever have outdoor me-time?
If it’s sunny I usually attempt to read in the garden, but that only lasts about ten minutes before I decide it’s too hot and bright.
8. Would you ever go and watch a film alone?
I like to think I would.
9. Favourite online shop?
I don’t usually buy stuff online these days but if I’m looking for inspiration I usually visit:
- Asos
- Look Human
- SheInside
- Redbubble
- Not On The High Street
10. Anything to add? What else do you do during me-time?
My favourite thing to due during me time is take a bath: bubbles, bath salts, the whole shebang. I have to consciously avoid Lush and The Body Shop so I don’t spend all of my money in there. If anyone has any great bath products to recommend I’d really appreciate it; I have a problem!
