Treat Yourself This Valentines Day

 Hey guys,

It's Valentines Day next week, right?! And I know this year it sucks because it's the first one where people can't go out and celebrate (or go out and look for love) or even go shopping for a gift and a card for their partner. I know there is always online for gifts but it's not the same is it? Mean I don't have to worry as I'm single ahaha. But maybe this year, especially with it being a Sunday, why don't we be our own Valentines? Be our own priority. I mean it is bonus if you have a partner who you can treat/be treated but also treat yourself.

*These ideas could be for yourself or for somebody you want to treat (whether your with somebody, your friend, a family member). 

Care Packages:

It costs fairly little to go to Home Bargains/B&M and pick up a few treats for the care package. A care package could include things such as; a can of alcohol/favourite drink, under the eye gel masks, face masks, foot mask, hair mask, lip balm, bath salts, bath bomb, favourite chocolates and maybe a candle. 

When we first went into lockdown I got my friendship group a care pamper package as it was a stressful time so we all needed to de-stress and recharge ourselves. I have attached a picture of what my care package consisted of. 

Read:

I have gotten into books since this pandemic - Think that could be because I have basically watched 90% of things on Netflix, Disney Plus and Amazon Prime and was literally becoming stuck in my bed. What's more perfect than escaping Valentines Day by sitting back with a nice hot cup of tea, box of chocolates and getting lost in your favourite book. Currently, at the moment I have been reading 'Stop Thinking Start Living' by Richard Carlson which has really helped with my mindset.

Facetime/Zoom:

Okay, so maybe in the past you might have spent Valentines with your girls who are single or with other family members but with the current lockdown situation it is quite tricky. So why not take this time to Facetime and check up on them? They will be feeling the same way you are, most likely. It will both parties the world of good. 

BuyYourself a Gift:

Have you been wanting to buy something for a while but been resisting? Why? Treat yourself!! After this whole year of pandemic, you deserve it. Think I have been doing this every payslip but I have seen quite a lot of makeup products that I would love in my kit; but yet I keep stopping myself because I'm like 'No I don't need it, I'm not wearing makeup at the moment'. But thinking of it I can buy these products, it will make the first day of when the rules lifted so much more exciting as I will have brand new fresh makeup products to try. 

Have a Movie/Series Marathon:

Put on your favourite series and just get lost in your element. Whether its Sex and the City, Pretty Little Liars, Gossip Girl, Friends, One Tree Hill, Dawson's Creek, etc. There are so many to choose from. There are some new ones on Netflix too. Think next on my list is Firefly Lane. 

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Hope you all have a lovely day 💓💋
