The Art of Treating Yourself
As a student, I try to save as much money as possible. However, wants, cravings and desires are all a part of human nature. Which is why the art of "treating yourself" is something I find important to practice every now and then. I believe spicing up your daily routine is necessary to keeping things fresh and fun. Easy ways I love doing this is by grabbing Starbucks after class, Dunkin after the gym, or shopping for something little after a month of hard work and saving.
Recently I took a little trip to the mall and finally picked up some items I've been craving to purchase. When I say I wear Nike workout shorts every day, I am NOT kidding. These pants are breezy, comfortable, and go with any t- shirt. You can wear them while working out, running errands, and even lounging around at your best friend's house.
I have been searching wherever I go for white Nike shorts and I am so glad I found them (and on sale too!) When I walked into DICK's Sporting Goods and saw them, it felt like a small dream was coming true because not only does black go with everything, but so does white 😋.
For the past few months I have been using Vaseline for everything... to hydrate my lashes, brows, lips and chapped skin from the rough winter at college. As the weather has gotten warmer, I've noticed a change in the way Vaseline affects my lips. While they're a good lip treatment for extra chapped lips, I noticed it began to break out and clog the skin around that area. When I went to repurchase the Fresh Soy Facial Cleaner (mentioned in my last post) I decided to take a chance on the Smith's Minted Rose Lip Balm since lip Care is something I have struggled with since middle school. While I've only been using this product for a short period of time, it's made a pretty good first impression! (this product is also available at Walmart).
Another amazing find I just had to have is this travel size bottle of Cashmere glow mist from Bath and Body Works. While I went into BBW to find the Limoncello candle, I must say I'm happy I ran into this little goodie at the checkout counter. And the best part is, it was only $1.50 because of the semi- annual sale going on right now!!
If you know me, you know that the Vanilla Bean Noel Christmas scent is my favorite body mist as I have been wearing it every day for years! I've strayed away from it a few times to test out some other scents but I always find my way back to it. With that being said, I'm excited to see how I'll like wearing Cashmere glow (so far, sooo good!)
