ā¦ wash your hair. i use the black castor oil shampoo and masque from shea moisture. the scent is lovely, it smells natural and faintly of vanilla, and the shampoo is clarifying, so it cleans your scalp really well.
ā¦ use a body scrub. you can make your own using brown sugar, honey, almond oil, a couple of drops of lavender oilā¦ youāll feel like a newborn baby when youāre done.
ā¦ do some decluttering. donate or sell clothes you no longer wear, throw away old papers, receiptsā¦ clean and organize your makeup. throw away any products that are expired, wash your makeup brushes and use a wipe to clean dust and grime off makeup containers. keep in mind most makeup products only last six to twelve months. you can check the expiration date on the container, generally next to the ingredient list.
ā¦ clean and tidy your space. open the windows, change your sheets, clean your space and when youāre done, light a scented candle or incense. i like using vanilla incense and i love the shea butter yankee candle ā”

the perfect time to do these things is now. you donāt have to wait until the new year, donāt tell yourself things like āiāll start next weekā. do it now.
respect yourself enough to know you deserve to be clean and live in a tidy, comfortable space.
and next time youāre shopping, ask yourself these questions:
āwill this bring value to my life?ā
āwill this make my life easier?ā
ādo i love this?ā
make sure youāre not going crazy with buying clothes, makeup, trinketsā¦ be smart about your purchases so you donāt end up with a cluttered space all over again.
