a guide to take back your power ‧₊˚🦢✩

do what you want and don't be afraid to do it alone. if no one else wants to go with you somewhere, or do something with you, learn to have that ability to do it alone. and obviously i don't mean illegal or bad stuff, but i mean if you've been meaning to try out a new activity but no one else seems interested, go do it on your own! when you start doing this it'll show people that whether they join you or not, you will still go and do things that make you happy.

say no. just say no. its not that scary once you start saying it often. you don't wanna do something? say no. you don't wanna give something? say no. you don't need to have a reason.

get a life outside of them or get a life outside of whats draining you. when your whole life is primarily centred around maybe a toxic friend, a job that drains you, something that makes you feel very anxious, then of course you'd be on survival mode 24/7. because all you're thinking and stressing about is that thing. so instead maybe after a long day of school or work, go home and do something you love. because remember, your life doesnt stop after school/ work okay?? you can go and actually DO STUFF to take your mind off things. you don't even need to go out of your house, you could have a cozy night in with yummy food and your fav movie, pick up a hobby or if you do wanna go outside your house, meet up with some friends, learn a sport, join a club, go paragliding or something- anything that makes you feel happy!!

refuse embarrassment. because you can. because torturing yourself over what happened in the past is doing you absolutely no good right now. just learn and move onnn- LEARN AND MOVE ON! if learning takes time, so be it but make sure that you're focussing on learning, on why you did that, and not beating yourself up for making a mistake. and also because when you show people you're not embarrassed about something, they'll realise that they cannot hold that over your head. now you have the power.

when you say you're gonna do something, DO IT. don't be all talk and no walk, people will lose respect and trust in you. don't say anything unless you are confident that you will actually do it. "do what you say but do not say what you do"- keep up to your promises you've made to others & yourself, but also keep private. what people don't know, they can't ruin.

staying and feeling clean and fresh⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🛁💕

HAVING GOOD SMELLING HAIR ;

having good smelling hair doesn't only boil down to the scented shampoos and conditioners you use in ur hair. odor in ur hair originates in ur scalp so by keeping a clean scalp -> your hair will smell better! if u have a dry scalp, oil your hair before washing it. oil breaks down oil. if u have an oily scalp, clarify ur hair once a week.

you can figure out what kind of scalp type you have with the quiz i'll link right here (♡) also, i find that how u wash ur hair makes SUCH a difference. i always shampoo twice and i use a bubble foamer to really emulsify my shampoo and that makes my hair feel SO much cleaner and softer so i highly recommend that.

so what i'll do, is i'll make my shampoo foam and put it onto my scalp and then use a scalp massager to REAALLLY get in there and clean my head. massaging my scalp during this time feels so nice. i massage the five different meridians on my scalp and just really enjoy this step. some other general tips include :

🫧 dont use regular perfume on ur hair bcuz the alcohol in perfume dries out ur hair, instead use a hair perfume

🫧 make sure that your washing your hair brushes every couple of weeks to manage the residual product and stop redistributing those oils back into ur hair

SMELLING GOOD ;

using glycolic acid on ur skin gets rid of odor that simply showering cannot. i wipe down with glycolic acid on my underarms once a week. another thing that helps with smelling super good is not rubbing ur perfume in! when u apply perfume onto ur wrists and u rub, ur just breaking them done and making them foggy and thats NOT hot.

dont ever rub, just let it sink into ur skin. also, applying it onto your pressure points (e.g. inner wrists, inner elbows, neck, in between ur boobs) makes all the difference bcuz when u sweat ur body releases heat from here, emitting ur perfume.

ORAL HYGEINE ;

🫧 floss every single night and tongue scraping in the morning! its a non-negotiable

🫧 brush ur teeth 2x a day

🫧 oil pulling 1-2x a week to whiten my teeth and for general oral health (i oil pull with coconut oil)

SHOWER ROUTINE ORDER ;

bar soap (if i need to i'll use an antibacterial one) -> body wash -> OUT OF THE SHOWER -> body oil -> lotion/body butter (keep in mind the body oils and butters go on while ur skin is still slightly damp) -> perfume 🛁💕

GENERAL TIPS AND CHARTS ;

🫧 i use exfoliation gloves/african net sponge every single day, it keeps my skin super duper soft and my skin isnt highly sensitive so i can take it.

🫧 make sure that you use scents that layer well together and blend nicely. dont use a pineapple scented body wash and use a chocolate scented body butter! then you're gonna smell a mess.

🫧 dont use an antibacterial bar soap every single day because its superrr drying for your skin.

guide to a evening routine 𝜗𝜚⋆₊˚ 🐈‍⬛🎀✨

your night sets the tone for tomorrow, which is why having a peaceful and intentional evening routine is so so important. its your special time to unwind, reset, and wind down. of course you can do these steps in whatever order feels right for you, your routine should soothe and support your needs. a good evening routine helps improve your sleep, lowers stress and creates a space comfortable for mindfulness, self love and peace. sweet dreams and enjoy! 🎀

UNWINDING:

unwinding at night is all about slowing down and letting your body know it’s time to relax. i love dimming the lights, playing soft music or subliminals, lighting a candle and just breathing. you can journal, reflect on your day, or just lay in bed and check in with yourself. your energy deserves softness after a long day.

SKINCARE:

your skincare routine should feel like a ritual—not a chore. it’s a moment just for you. cleansing the day away, moisturizing, and pampering yourself makes you feel clean, dolly, and cared for. even just washing your face and applying your favorite serum can boost your mood.

STRETCHING + YOGA:

doing 5-10 minutes of gentle yoga or stretching at night can completely shift your energy. it helps calm your nervous system, release tension, and reconnect with your body. plus, it feels so good to move with intention.

READING:

reading before bed instead of scrolling is such a dreamy habit. it calms your mind and helps you fall asleep easier. you can read anything you like—romance, fantasy, a cozy self-help—but even a few pages helps. it feels so much better to end the day with words than a screen.

WARM BATH OR SHOWER:

a warm bath or shower is one of the best things you can do for your body and your mind before bed. it literally rinses the stress off you. add bubbles, oils, salts—whatever makes it feel soft and special. when you step out clean and cozy, it’s like becoming a new version of you, ready for rest.

GRATITUDE:

before sleep, take a few moments to say thank you. list three things you’re grateful for, even tiny ones. this shifts your mindset into peace + abundance. it’s such a simple thing, but it makes a huge difference. gratitude reminds you how amazing life already is.

Health-maxxing skin >>>>> studying makeup!! 🍑 8 Ways to Start

Hydrate like your life depends on it, because your enjoyment of life sure does.

Get an expensive, high-quality multivitamin. Drugstore brands don't cut it.

Put on sunscreen before your face is ever hit by rays, and watch your bedroom shades. I've received a sunburn from the morning sun peeking through before!

Research retinoids like retinol & tretinoin, and why mega-dosing vit A can function similarly. Don't forget your neck if applying topically.

Find out what you're allergic to. Eliminate all the common allergens for a week - wheat, dairy, sugar, nuts, shellfish, eggs - and then reintroduce them one at a time. Your skin and gut will tell you if something is harming you if you're patient and LISTEN to your body.

Environmental allergens will kill your skin too - get tested for allergies to pet dander, mold, dust mites, etc. especially if you wake up with mucus habitually or feel tired a lot.

Fill your diet with antioxidants.

Quit using lip balms that make your lips more chapped and switch to applying oils.
