A Cosy Winter Night Routine

Hi Guys,
As its getting colder and closer to Christmas, its nice to have a bit of a pamper night and watch some Christmas films. I thought I'd share my little routine and favourites with you all too! 
Now I love the Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm, its so luxurious and a lot cheaper than I first thought. I mean dont get me wrong its still a high end product, compared to the Body Shop one, but its lovely for a nice pamper like this. It melts into an oil and takes away all your make up and even eye make up too, for a really deep cleanse! 

I have very dry skin and lips, especially at this time of year. That's were Origins Drink Up Intensive Overnight Mask comes in, I love this because you can either apply it and leave it on for 10 minutes then remove. Or you can go to bed with it on and leave it on overnight, its fantastic, I especially like to leave it on overnight because it really softens and hydrates my skin. To go with it, I love the Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream as a lip balm, it's extremely popular and really helps to soften my lips. 

I do love painting my nails too, This shade from Illamasqua Melange, Is becoming a very popular favourite of mine, plus I love the fact that its green with a gold shimmer, perfect for this time of year and gives me another reason to wear it! 
One of my favourite things at this time of year is the Primark Pyjamas, great dupes for the very popular but quite expensive Jack Will's Pyjama Bottoms. Plus as its Christmas who can't resist Mickey and Minnie Mouse in Santa hats, they're so cosy too! Teamed with my current book, Girl Online by Zoe Sugg, which I've been loving and don't want to finish it! Bring on book two! Then a good sprits of This Work's Deep Sleep Pillow Spray to help me nod off!
Ive been loving the Zoella Candle and its perfect for a cosy night, smells lovely too. But my favourite scent has to come from the Luxury Lush Pudding, Lush Bath Ballistic. The same scent as their Twilight Bath Ballistic, which you may of heard me rave about HERE. Its a fantastic one as it helps me sleep due to the lavender in it, it also pairs brilliantly with the pillow spray. Its great to have a festive version of it too for this time of year, although its more like a colour explosion when you put it in the bath. I paired it with the Comforter Bubble Bar for tons of bubbles!
Finally its time to get the duvet and watch Christmas films, The Hallmark Channel seems to be on a non stop loop! Plus a bowl of soup to warm me up, I kinda poured a bit too much into the bowl though! I love having a good browse through all the tweets on Twitter too!

  1. This sounds like the perfect night in! My lips get so dry in winter too, luckily my skin doesn't really suffer.
