Spring spruce up - anyone else?

I’ve realised over the winter I’ve slightly let myself go a bit 🙈 Nothing dramatic, just that grey, tired end-of-winter feeling. So I’m thinking it’s time for a little spring spruce up and some TLC.

Immediate things on my list are booking a hairdresser’s appointment and getting my eyebrows waxed as they’ve definitely got a bit out of control!

It’s made me think I should probably do a few other small things to feel a bit more put together again.

Does anyone else want to join me and do a little seasonal “reset”? What are your go-to things that make the biggest difference?

Nothing to do with spring but I’m off on holiday to visit family in a couple weeks and have been putting of colouring my hair so it will last while there. I have pretty much all grey hair and the roots noticeably grow in after three weeks. So currently do look a bit skunkish and every day look in the mirror and wonder how long I can wait! I’m on a diet too - should have gone back on it straight after Christmas but you know…

@mondaytosunday hope you have a great holiday with lovely newly coloured hair. I know what you mean about the diet! I started after Christmas don't think it's done much though. Wondering if it's a age thing, I am getting puffier by the day. I can't seem to get rid of the water retention.
