Relaxing Morning

It's not often where I'm awake at eight in the morning. Yesterday, I was just lying in bed for a bit, feeling relaxed when I thought I'd share with you guys my morning. So as usual my mornings start in bed. 

I was mostly on my phone during this time when I decided to get up at 8:23am. 

One thing that I always like to do when I get up is make my bed straight away because it just looks so much better when it's made and it's got to be done anyway so I may as well do it as soon as I leave my bed. 

It was also a very nice day with blue skies outside which was nice to see. 

So my room was a little messy on this day. The cushions on my sofa were a mess (Yes I have a sofa in my room, don't ask how me and my mum got it up the stairs), there were socks and wires on the floor and my desk was a mess so I thought I'd do a quick clean up. Nothing much just makes it look a little tidier.

Now my bedroom looks a little more tidier.

Now it's time for coffee which I make in my usual mug. I just can't function without coffee in the morning. I don't usually have breakfast in the morning and I know it's the most important meal of the day but I'm just never hungry for it. So yeah I just made my coffee and took it upstairs to my room. 

While I drink my coffee, I like writing my to-do list for today. I don't put down too many things and some things are pretty simple to do but I just like the feeling of crossing things off my to do list. 

Another thing I do while drinking my coffee is watch some YouTube videos. On this day, I came across this YouTube called krist & yu. I enjoyed watching some of her videos and thought some of her life advice is very helpful.  

After that, I had a shower because my hair was a little greasy and I just needed a shower. 

After my shower I will put on some comfy clothes which were black shorts and a top because it was pretty hot today.

Now it's time for my skincare and I absolutely love this Simple Foaming Cleanser because I feel like it cleanses my face and does the job perfectly. Plus because it foams on my face which makes me think it's definitely cleaning my face too. 

After ten minutes, I will put on my soothing facial toner. As I have sensitive skin, I don't like putting on products one after the other. I like to leave it ten minutes before putting on the next part of my skincare routine so that my face is not overwhelmed by all the products.

I like to use the Simple soothing eye balm under my eyes because I feel like it brightens my eyes and reduces the puffiness. 

Finally, I love my Simple light moisturiser (can you tell I love Simple products) because it moisturises my face and it has spf 15 in it so it also protects my face from the sun too.

After my whole skincare routine, I like to take an hour in my morning to do some reading as I'm trying to get through my TBR pile before I move away. The current book I'm reading is All That She Can See by Carrie Hope Fletcher. 

Once an hour has passed, I will then go onto my laptop to do some work on it including writing this blog post plus some research for my university.

Anyway, that's pretty much it for my relaxing morning that I had yesterday. I try to do the same thing everyday but sometimes I just get a little lazy.

My question of the day is what is the most essential part of your morning routine? I would love to hear it in the comments below.

Thank you for reading my blog and I'll be back soon with another post for you.

See you then.
