A proper blow dry - makes me feel so good about myself!

Great hair

Painting my nails. I don't feel finished if my nails are bare.
And a lovely perfume- currently my favourite is lancôme la vie et belle

Tidy kitchen and living room while ushering kids to get washed so once they are a sleep I can get into clean space, relax, and have a beer and chat with DH. Bliss

A little fake tan, just the slow developing moisturiser one but I'm normally very pale, so a little glow makes me feel great!

Which one do you recommebd?

My morning and evening skin care. I sit at my lovely dressing table in my comfy chair and it bookends my day.
Walks in nature.
Eating whole foods and getting 8 or more fruit and veg in.

... had a blow dry. Contemplating investment in a Dyson Airstrait to see if I can get the effect myself.

Little bit of fake tan as I am really pale with hazel eyes and I look better with a bit of colour.
My hair done nice - straight and smooth
Nails painted
Legs shaved

Like others I always feel better when my hair looks good - when my roots are done and I can be bothered to blow-dry it nicely.

When I workout - I walk out of my exercise class feeling like superwoman, even though I'm a sweaty mess.

Also when my skin is glowing; when I remember to make the effort with my skincare.

Swimming in the sea.

A blow dry at a salon.

A cuddle with someone I love.

CHOCOLATE!

Jumping into the sea or into a pool.

Getting a piercing.

A massage.

Perfume. Fresh, crisp sheets. A dusting of ByTerry hyaluronic powder. Rubbing cuticle oil into my fingernails and toes. Pilates. Eyebrows threaded regularly.

Good hair colour & cut, nails done, eyebrows shaped and tinted. Moustache and beard---- facial hair sorted .

Losing about 2 stone would be good too.
