MORNING ROUTINE (REAL LIFE) WAKE UP WITH ME ｜ Stephanie Ledda

Okay so I'm up. This is like a real morning routine. Like this is my morning voice. I'm not like filming this fakely at two in the afternoon. Not that I don't, I mean I don't know if people actually do that but I'm guessing that they do because other people's routines look way more perfect than mine. So the first thing that I do is I immediately go get coffee. I don't speak. Sometimes I go to the bathroom but I immediately go to coffee because I am not a morning person. I need time. I need my time. I need my space. Don't talk to me. Don't expect anything out of me. So today's K-cup is from Beautiful Coffee, my fave. This is the Adirondack blend because you know Adirondack, say DK. God's plan is coffee and then wash your face. So that's what we're gonna do. So this is the creamer I'm using today. Sometimes I use this. Sometimes I use the almond milk vanilla one but sometimes the store is out of that so I just get this one, the sugar-free french vanilla. For Stephanie. For Saturday. For super, what's a good s-word? Super sassy. Sweet. The sweetest bitch you'll ever meet. But on a more serious note, why do so many people think that my name is Sam? Is it because of Sammy from Jersey Shore? Like do I just look like a Samantha? Like I just don't see it. Also first thing they do in the morning as I yell at my dog for eating another pillow. Let's just everyone relax. See they eat their beds. They eat everything and then Rose just is harassed by Dez all day long. She's a good sport about it. She is. In the mornings they usually get their wrestle on like so and then terrorize in the process but it's fun. Get her Rose. Get her. She mean. Get her Rose. She mean to us. Sass. Look at that. Are you kissing? Get her Rose. All right Rose and then that happens. Let's get the Roomba going guys. We start the Roomba. Whoa everybody and then there we go. Why are you doing this? You what? Look at her with stuffing in her mouth. Okay so this is what happens. The next to go through my emails today is Saturday so I probably won't have too much. It'll probably be a bunch of stores trying to sell me stuff which is totally true. So I really should unsubscribe for most of these but um yeah it's Saturday so most of them are gonna be non-important emails. Like look at all these things. I need to find an outfit for a bridal shower so I probably will be checking out some of these sales you know. Then I have like a few things on my phone that I like to read like first thing in the morning just to kind of set the mood. So this is like my thing that I read like every day. Count my blessings. Practice kindness. Let go of what I can't control. Listen to my heart. Be productive and calm. Just breathe. So I read that then I read this and I just say this to myself over and over. I kind of tweak it and I say that good things are here and more good things are coming and I just say this just to you know put that out there. This is another one. These are habits of happy people. I think these are all great. I don't really wake up early though so number six. I don't really follow number six but other than that I try to you know kind of remind myself of this. These are also 12 things to always remember. Just read them. You can read them to yourself or you can read them out loud but you know there's a lot of them but if you want screenshot or something. Then this is another one. This is like a girl power manifesto. Basically just saying to not be so hard on yourself because as girls we always are so hard on ourselves. So that's another thing if you want to like screenshot it and oh and this is another one. The reason you want everything you want is because you think you'll feel good once you get it but you have to feel good in the process of getting there. So basically you have to be grateful for what you have when you're working towards more. Oh and then there's a shirt that I wore. So yeah I like to go through those and yeah that's just my camera roll right now but you know. So yeah I like to go through those like in the morning. Sometimes I do it while I'm still in bed like if I don't feel like getting out of bed yet but I like to like kind of like start my day like reading those things because it makes me kind of be more positive and just have like a better outlook for the day. I feel like reading stuff like that in the morning can kind of just like set the tone for the day and kind of like get rid of yesterday's BS. So I like to do that. Also I'm gonna go through and try to reply to some comments on Instagram posts because I posted an Instagram post last night. This little guy right here. By the way this phone case is from Life Proof. You guys always ask about my phone cases and do not mind all this. These are all clothes that have to be donated. I went through my closet yesterday. So I'm just gonna go through and reply to some comments because I posted this last night and I didn't get to reply to everything yet. So I'm gonna go through and like and comment some posts. You guys are commenting to me about wine. I mean obviously because my shirt says may contain wine but my face just lights up you know. I'm so goofy. Like oh you're smiling at your phone? Who are you talking to? Nobody. Just reading my my followers comments because they're so nice to me. Is this a bad angle? This is probably not flattering. I don't care though. So next up is breakfast. So today I'm gonna be having some oatmeal. So I will just show you guys what I do for this. It's super easy and simple. So obviously just take your oatmeal. I use the old-fashioned kind. Take a half a cup of that and then I put like a cup of water. So what I do is I take a protein powder. This one is from the Alani New Nutrition line. It's from Katie Hearn and this is a pancake brunch flavor. So it tastes like maple syrup pretty much. So I just take a big scoop of that and put it in my oatmeal. This is so hot I can't even hold it. And then just stir it up as you can see. I don't like to add the milk yet. I like to stir it first. Otherwise I feel like it tastes like a protein shake poured on top and I'm not into that. So I stir it up then I add some almond milk. Stir it once again and then I add some blueberries because I like blueberries and just gives it a little something extra. So I just take a few handfuls and then there you go. That is breakfast. And then one other thing that I do in the morning is take my vitamins. I take this multivitamin from Nature's Way. Women's Energy. And I've also been taking these. These are the Ollie gummies for a flawless complexion. I get like breakouts around like my mouth and chin like hormonal like that time of the month. So I've been taking these and they taste good. I'm almost out. I'm probably a few weeks in. So it's my first month trying these but I do like them. And then also sometimes I take a probiotic or I will have some of these kabuka. Is that how you say kabuka? I like to try new ones. So this one tastes pretty good. It's hibiscus ginger lime. It has enzymes, probiotics, amino acids, and small amounts of caffeine. I'll either take a probiotic pill or drink one of these or like half of one and then save the other one for like the next day. I usually just rinse my skin. Sometimes I will use a makeup wipe and other times I will use micellar water or sometimes I just use like straight up water. But I never really use a cleanser in the morning unless I like forgot to take my makeup off for some reason. But I don't know I just feel like sometimes if you cleanse too much it can like strip your skin. So I just take one of these. And the micellar water I've been using is the Bioderma but the Garnier one is really good too. Then I just follow it up with the Paula's Choice 2% BHA liquid. I cannot live without this stuff. It just is so good. It just makes your pores like appear smaller and prevents breakouts and makes existing breakouts go away faster. Just the best. So I just apply this all over. I keep my eye oil in the fridge and I mentioned this in my allergy video. So it's just like an eye oil. It's from Kora. It's called the Noni Radiant Eye Oil. And I keep it in the fridge just for like extra like de-puffing. But it has like this rose quartz eye roller. I don't know if you can see if it'll show up. But it is a rose quartz rollerball. So it is like just so good. It just feels like so soothing and it doesn't like leave greasiness. I don't like to use this at night time because I feel like it actually isn't hydrating enough. But I just love how it makes my eyes feel. I feel like it makes them you know look more awake and open. So then for moisturizer I'm always like trying new ones. So I've been using this one on and off lately and this is the Philosophy Purity Made Simple moisturizer. It's supposed to be lightweight with vitamins, antioxidants, and natural oils. It doesn't have SPF in it but obviously you can layer SPF on over top of it. But it just goes on really nice. Hydrating and it absorbs pretty quickly. Then I'm just gonna do a really quick little makeup routine that I do for when I'm like going out and running errands. I just have a few errands I need to run today. So I'm just gonna do my quick little routine for like looking like a little bit more out today so I have a sweater and jeans on. I definitely should have washed my hair today but I didn't. So I'm gonna be using my new favorite dry shampoo. This is the one that I got during the Sephora VIB sale. This is the IGK First Class Charcoal Detox Dry Shampoo. So after it like sits in your hair for a little bit then you can like work it in. But the white cast goes away pretty quickly and it smells really good and it gives you a lot of volume. I also need to brush my hair. See I think that looks like a little bit better. A little bit less greasy. I might even throw on a hat though because it is raining out I think. But yeah this is my quick little outfit of the day. Just a pink sweater. These little girlfriend jeans. I've had these for like I don't know like three years or something. And then these little white slip-on shoes. Alright so now I'm off to the bank and the post office. I have to get there before they close because it is Saturday. So um that's what I'm doing today. The morning is over. It's almost noon so I gotta go. But I hope you guys enjoyed my little morning routine and thank you for watching!
