My Self Care Routine

When you do as much as me in a day, you need a good self-care routine to keep your body feeling good; I suffered depression for a very long time, and as anyone with depression knows, your body and self-care goes down the drain, my teeth took the biggest blunt and were yellow, and orange from not brushing them in ages and once I had almost pulled myself out of depression, and I was smiling again people started commenting on them which wasn't helping so I try and keep myself now as cared for as possible and this is how

Now the products I use are 
(these don't include my shampoo and conditioner and like hair products, and they don't include my body washes)

  • St Ives blemish control apricot face scrub
  • charcoal face mask
  • charcoal face soap
  • Sensodyne
  • white gloss toothpaste
  • white gloss diamond series teeth whiting gel
  • cup o' coffee face and body mask from lush
  • Garnier Fructis repairing papaya hair food
  • exfoliating charcoal body scrub
My routine

Sunday: I start off by putting the St Ives face scrub on my face, and I start to run the shower; I apply the White Glo whiting gel to the mouth tray and put it into my mouth. I hop in and wash my face and then scrub off and wash my hair. Once my hair is washed, I put the Garnier Fructis repairing papaya hair food in my hair, and I let it sit for five minutes. While it sits, I take out the mouth tray and apply the white glo toothpaste to my toothbrush and clean my teeth off; I then put the exfoliating charcoal body scrub onto my body. I then wash my hair out and rinse the body scrub off before getting out of the shower. 


  
Monday: I use the Sensodyne on my teeth any day I am not whitening my teeth. I normally use the face soap on Mondays.  

Tuesday: I normally do a charcoal face mask just to finish off the acne stuff for the week 

Thursday: I again whiten my teeth and use the white glo toothpaste. On Thursdays, I also use the Garnier as a leave-in hair treatment which does wonders. It's normally Thursdays that I do the cup o' coffee face and body mask to leave my face feeling soft for the rest of the week.

on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, I don't do anything in my self-care, I wash my face with water twice a day after brushing my teeth, and I shower, and that's it, nothing special

Moving to a new country | with kids

Moving to a new country can be exciting but nerve wracking add in children and it can feel overwhelming to say the least, today I want to share all the advice and tips I have to move overseas after having just made an overseas move for myself with my two young daughters.   Mid January I moved from New Zealand back to Australia, some of you may know that I was actually born in Australia and lived over here until 2011 so for me this was about returning home but for my kids it was moving countries for the first time and while my youngest had no idea what was going on as she was only 3 months old my eldest had a range of emotions and it was honestly quite tough on her at times.   My first bit of advice is to just talk about the move, explain why you’re moving and what to expect in an age-appropriate way so that they can better understand what is going on, talk about all the positives with the move    that would interest them from new experiences to making new friend...

How to tell if you are a rebound or if the guy really likes you

Oh, the agony, you are talking to a guy, and he is giving mixed signals about if he really likes you or if he is pretending to use you as a rebound; well, I have compiled a list for both to help you work out what you really are. We have all been there at least once in our lives; you start talking to a guy, and you can not make sense about how he is really felling; there are a few telltale signs about what you are. Now rebounds are not just sleeping around; they can be emotional too. A rebound is only a relationship or relations that happen while they are still getting over there partner. 90% of rebound relationships will fall apart within three months, but how long it takes to heal from a relationship depends on how long the relationship was, the person and if the relationship was over way before it actually ended. some signs you are just a rebound are: they are totally in love with you even though you haven't known each other long your relationship moves really fast...

The benefit of learning a new language and tips on how to do it

  Learning a new language can be such a rewarding learning experience. I have been using Duolingo since April 2022 to learn Spainish after years of struggling but wanting to learn the language. I now have had a streak since the 10th April 2022 without missing a day and have learned a lot so I though I would compile a list of the benefits of learning a new language and some tips on how to do it for those of you who also want to learn another language.  Benefits of learning a new language 1. Cognitive enhancement: Learning a new language can boost your memory and recall abilities. Multilingual individuals also tend to have improved problem-solving and critical-thinking skills. 2. Cultural Awareness: Language learning provides a deeper understanding of other cultures and perspectives. Knowing the local language also enriches travel experiences and interactions with locals. 3. Career Advantages: Being bilingual or multilingual opens up more job opportunities and can lead to higher...
