Cosy moments
I love autumn, the days become longer a little more breeze in the air walking to work when the darkness appears wrapped in my gorgeous style Parker with fur across the hood, I must say Tesco has nailed their autumn collection this year I purchased my coat which was 49.00 and my pastel pink scarf and hat, the hat has pearls across the front which adds a little glamour and my scarf were both 9.99 each. You can not beat wrapping up warm walking through the park to travel to work, leaves falling from the trees and the sun has finally set. For my day to day profession I am a support worker and I work mainly days but have done a couple of wake in nights so once a the long 14/15 hours shift finishes I can not wait to head home and throw on a pair off my comfy lounge sets, as I spend a lot of time resting after a long period of work I love to go out and shop for new pjs and lounge wear after all I spend a lot of time in them. In town recently I popped in to peacocks and came across some lovely 2 piece lounge sets hooded jumpers and long leggings and at only 18.00 per set you can not go wrong. candles are a must and in my home we have a great selection for every season, I love autumn scents and so many fragrances to chose from my preferred go to scent would be spice pumpkin a ginger undertone with cinnamon and spices or spiced apple which is also incredible, however recently i purchased some lovely new yankee candle wax melts, first pack smells amazing really strong fresh air scent. The second set smells good enough to eat chocolate and pistachio which im burning on days i have off. There are so many different brands and also venders who sell products on line which I must say are just as nice with powerful long lasting scents that dont break the bank, it’s all about shopping a round and a lot of online venders do sample boxes which you receive a selection of small wax melts to try at a reasonable price. I have tried several venders and I must say I do have my preferred vendor I will go to for numourous buys over the year, however if I don’t purchase online I do like Yankee candles I have many of their candles as well as their home inspirations collection that i purchased from Asda, I am also a mad jo malone fan I receive one of her fragrances as a gift from loved ones or if I am really treating my self as they are on the pricey side. On Facebook there are two businesses that I buy my products from and they are laurel&reed and relax with wax both local to myself who stock so many different fragrances in candles, wax melts and other home fragrance and are also handmade by two lovely ladies who own the business, they deliver all across the uk as well which is also incredible. once I have spent a fair while going through all my candles I chose pumpkin pie wax melt, very rich and slightly spiced. My burner is on and and my lounge is looking very cosy, now it becomes darker at an earlier time I have the perfect excuse to jump in the shower and use some of my favourite purchases which includes the Ginger shampoo and conditioner range which is a heavenly scent long lasting fragrance on my hair and really makes my hair feel soft and gives my hair a lovely shiny finish, both my products are brought from the body shop and they were 60 ml bottles, moving on to skin care I also brought the perppermint range which included a lather body scrub in a really nice tone of Cool breeze green, a body butter and a 60ml bottle of shower gel which smells really divine. Also from the body shop I use skintruth the full face range which consists of cleanser, toner and moisturiser after a period of long shifts my face feels a little dull overly tired skin and sometimes I break out this range is very soothing on the skin I keep my moisturiser in the fridge which gives my skin a cooling effect when I apply, every day I use the clarins treatment oil for blemished skin which I apply straight after my moisturiser I love clarins products and use many off the their products, it is really down to the person and what products work well for your skin, I find a lot of products dries my skin out but so far clarins has done the opposite it has helped with my breakouts and helped with the redness. I suffer with bad hormonal acne which I have suffered through out my teen and adult life, I have tried so many products including home remedies as well as creams from the doctors, most things help for a little while then I feel like they stop working.My skin is not as bad as it used to be but I still break out and they are very sore and I lose my confidence as quick as a click of a finger I become embarrassed and I would rather stay in than show my face, it’s not every day and it could be a few months before I break out but when I do it’s not just one blemish is several and sometimes more so this evening after counting 5 rather raised blemishes I decide to apply 2 thin layers of my oil, skin feeling refreshed my hair pulled back to dry naturally feeling relaxed I decide to p3ull my curtains Lock my self away and have time with my family, deciding on what film to choose can sometimes be a non winning battle and could be sat for a while trying to agree with a 5 year old and a 10 year old who both have different taste in tv and films trying to get them to agree we end up watching Two films normally the same films they always pick. Every single scene they know the lines, not always sure what treats to have during the movie sometimes popcorn sometimes sweets but we never forget our hot chocolates with marshmallows,creams and a flake with a little ginger bread syrup added to give it added flavour, we relax and enjoy our movies. Cold evenings like this I think brings
families together taking time out off busy schedules, to play games and make a mess in the kitchen to have family time which to me is what it is all about. I prefer days/nights in even if it is just talking about our days, completing homework and our daily chores. once the children are in bed the best part is getting into bed, so cosy inside my duvet and fresh sheets thay where purchased recently from dunelm. Teddy bear collection, high quality fabric, carfully stitched and pink. Super soft wrapping my self up,only thing i would say about the collection is you can not buy as a set, everything is brought seperatly which is fine but makes it expensive. I was not complaining thou as it was a gift to me from my loving partner. Even now the qaulity is just as good,currently awake on a shift finishing writring, I only have just under 2 hours left before I can head home and actually enjoy my COSY MOMENTS
With love Sharleeigh x
