FALL PAMPER ROUTINE | How to Have a Relaxing Night In

Hey guys! Welcome back to my channel. Thanks for being here. Today I wanted to share my pamper routine for a relaxing night in. I've become a bit more of a homebody this time of year so I wanted to share a few of my favorite ways I like to spend a relaxing night at home. For me in the fall there is nothing better than a cup of warm apple cider and I love making this at home in my slow cooker. It's really simple and you only need a few ingredients. Some sliced apples, an orange, a few spices like cinnamon, a whole nutmeg, cloves, and allspice and you just put everything in your slow cooker. Pour water on top and let it sit. Not only does it taste amazing it also makes your house or apartment like me smell really really really delicious. And I typically leave mine in my crock pot. If I put it on high I leave it on for about three hours but if I put it on low I'll leave it for about six hours. Now on to my favorite part of the night and that is bath time. And of course you gotta have lots of candles. I love these from Diptyque. They are a definite splurge but they last forever and they smell amazing. And I've been using this pillow mist from L'Occitane on my robe. It has a lot of essential oils and it smells so good and relaxing. This is a newer cleansing balm I've been trying out from LMS and so far it has become one of my favorites. Not only does it remove my makeup but it has rose and mimosa waxes. It's anti-aging and it leaves my combination skin feeling really soft and balanced with no oily residue which I really appreciate. It also smells like a spa so I like to give myself a gentle facial massage. It's just really relaxing especially at night before going to bed. And just as you would with any other cleansing balm or oil when you add water it creates kind of a milky texture and I just remove that with a cloth. If you watched my October favorites video then you heard me rave about this microdermabrasion. It's a deluxe sample that I got from Sephora but I'm definitely buying it. It is the best microdermabrasion I've ever tried. It has tiny crystals that help to deeply exfoliate your skin and it evens out your texture. It helps to diminish the pore sizes and my skin feels so soft and smooth after using this. Even days after I use it I can tell a difference. My makeup applies more evenly and it makes your skin so smooth. It's one of those products that after you use it you can't stop touching even though you're not you shouldn't touch your face. You can't stop touching your skin because it feels so soft. After I do a deep exfoliating treatment I like to use a soothing mask and this one by Andalou Naturals is perfect for an indulgent night in because it's basically like you're smearing chocolate syrup on your face. It's made with cocoa which is full of antioxidants so it's good at just protecting your skin. It also has avocado which hydrates. And I always like to do a mask after doing a deep exfoliating treatment just to help replenish and comfort my skin. And I just leave this mask on while I'm in the bath and if you like chocolate you need to try this. I think I've showed this brand of bath salts before but I always pick up little packets of these when I'm at Whole Foods. They're full of lots of essential oils and I'm using this relaxing oil from L'Occitane that also has lots of different essential oils like lavender which you guys know I love lavender. And if you really want to go above and beyond and be super Instagram worthy you can use rose petals in your bath. Now this isn't something that I do all the time or on a weekly basis but if you go to Trader Joe's at the right time a lot of times you can find their roses on sale which is a great time to pick them up to use them for things like this or potpourri because they're starting to look a little bit wilty and you may only get a few days out of them in a vase. When I get out it's time for comfy clothes. Aren't these cute? I got these- I found these recently from Nordstrom Rack. I thought they were so cute but Mickey likes to eat the bow which is very annoying because he doesn't do that with anything else. But about an hour left or when there's an hour left on your slow cooker I like to take a potato masher and mash the um what are these apples and oranges and everything together just to kind of get the juices and it just helps everything come together and taste amazing. Once you're done with that you can strain it. I like to use a mesh strainer and then add your sweetener of choice. I used coconut sugar. You can use maple syrup or honey or whatever you care for and put a little cinnamon stick if you want to make it look insta-worthy too and enjoy your cider. I like to go and sit on the couch and relax with a good book. Right now I'm reading this Truly Madly Guilty. It's the same author who wrote Big Little Lies which I've read and I loved and I watched the show and I loved it too. But yeah I hope that you guys enjoy this video.
