Hey guys!
Welcome back to my blog!
Now that I’ve gotten that start of my Self-Care journey out of the way, I wanted to share some of my favourites of September that I just can’t keep to myself. All of these products are things that I used regularly throughout September
1. Molten Metal Nail Paints by Barry M
Something that I’ve been doing recently that I don’t think I’ve done before in my life is painting my nails. I gives me time to focus on something that isn’t problems or stressful and it also makes my nails look amazing. I’ve been loving the shades Pink Ice and Silver Lining from the Molten Metal line by Barry M, it perfectly matches the 90s grunge aesthetic that I am loving at the moment.
2. Fireside Treats Candle
One of my favourite self-care rituals is to light candles in my room, it really helps to clear my mind and get me ready for bed. With that said you probably understand that I’ve been through a lot of candle scents! But right now I am loving the fireside treats candle by Yankee Candle it is the perfect scent for the long autumn nights and it helps that it smells like Disneyland Main Street.
3. Mindfulness for Every Day by Yvette Jane
One of the best finds that I picked up this month was Mindfulness for Every Day. As a regular user of mindfulness meditation to avoid panic attacks I think this book is the perfect reminder that you can accomplish anything! The pictures and quotes on every page of this book helps me to feel more calm and reminds me to take a break and enjoy the world. Personally I would be lost without mindful meditation and this book is a beautiful reminder of how good life is on the bad days.
4. Colorista in Turquoise
So if you know me in real life, you know that I’ve been constantly dying my hair different colours in a way to bring more creativity in my life. However, I did over do it in February when a good chunk of my hair fell out! Since then I’ve stopped bleaching my hair and I am growing it out to my natural colour for the first time in years! But that doesn’t mean that I can’t have fun with the bottom damaged hair. I’ve always been hesitant to dye my hair any shade of blue as the last time it didn’t come out but this shade of turquoise is the perfect colour for me. I doesn’t wash me out and it’s so easy to apply by yourself!
5. Wonderful Wonderful by The Killers
I initially wasn’t going to add this into my favourites and was going to do a separate blog post (hence the different background!) but I thought that this album needed a shout out because it got the to the top of the billboard charts! The Killers have been my favourite band since 2008 and have helped me through the darkest parts of my life so it’s only fair that I give their new album a shout out. And what a wonder album it is! The songs are amazing and it was completely worth the wait! My personal favourites are ‘Rut’ and ‘Life to Come’ but of course all of the album is completely flawless!! (and OF COURSE I bought it twice!)
That’s all of my favourites from this month! Get ready for this month of blog posts that I’ve lined up as it’s going to be something to stick around for!

Cute list! Have heard more and more that using mindfulness/gratitude tools should only be used once a week though – using them daily can have adverse effects. Which is interesting.

That teal dye is amazing! I would love to try this out. How long does it stay, and does it ruin the hair after?

In my own opinion blue is definitely a permanent colour! I find it hard to wash out completely but it is such a pretty colour and it hasn’t damaged my hair it’s actually given my hair a break as the colour is long lasting!

I love the blue dye! I’m growing out some bleached sections myself so I may as well cover them up with some turquoise!

I used to love my candles, especially during fall! I’ve switched to diffusing essential oils and I can get an amazing fall smell with cinnamon! 🙂
