AM Routine: Prepares your skin to face the day by focusing on hydration and protection from environmental stressors like UV rays and pollution.
PM Routine: Focuses on deep cleansing, nourishing, and repairing your skin after a long day.
Your morning routine should be lightweight and protective, focusing on hydration and shielding your skin from damage.
Start your day by removing excess oil and sweat that accumulated overnight. 👉 How-to: Use a gentle cleanser suitable for your skin type and rinse with lukewarm water.
Toners balance your skin’s pH and provide hydration. 👉 How-to: Apply toner with a cotton pad or pat it directly onto your skin using your hands.
A vitamin C serum brightens your skin and protects it from free radicals caused by sunlight and pollution. 👉 How-to: Use 2–3 drops and press it gently into your skin.
Prevent puffiness and hydrate the delicate skin around your eyes. 👉 How-to: Dab a small amount under your eyes using your ring finger.
Hydrate your skin to keep it smooth and supple throughout the day. 👉 How-to: Apply a lightweight moisturizer and massage it into your face and neck.
The most important step in your AM routine! Sunscreen protects your skin from harmful UV rays, preventing sunburn, premature aging, and skin cancer. 👉 How-to: Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. Apply generously to your face, neck, and ears.
Your evening routine is all about cleansing your skin of the day’s grime and giving it the nutrients it needs to regenerate overnight.
Oil-Based Cleanser: Removes makeup, sunscreen, and excess oil.
Water-Based Cleanser: Cleanses dirt, sweat, and impurities from your skin. 👉 How-to: Start with an oil-based cleanser, then follow with a gentle water-based cleanser.
Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and smooths skin texture. 👉 How-to: Use a chemical exfoliant (like AHAs or BHAs) or a gentle scrub. Avoid over-exfoliating.
Apply a toner to restore balance and prepare your skin for serums and treatments. 👉 How-to: Pat it into your skin gently.
Use treatments like retinol, acne spot treatments, or serums targeting specific concerns like pigmentation or wrinkles. 👉 How-to: Apply a thin layer of your treatment product to problem areas.
For overnight hydration and plump skin, apply a hyaluronic acid serum. 👉 How-to: Use 2–3 drops and press gently into your skin.
Repair and hydrate the delicate skin around your eyes to reduce fine lines and puffiness. 👉 How-to: Dab it lightly around the eye area.
Lock in moisture and nourish your skin as it repairs overnight. Choose a richer cream or one with repairing ingredients like peptides. 👉 How-to: Massage it into your face and neck.
If your skin feels extra dry, apply a facial oil to seal in moisture and wake up with glowing skin. 👉 How-to: Warm a few drops in your hands and press it into your skin.
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day 💧.
Eat a balanced diet rich in antioxidants and healthy fats 🍇🥑.
Get 7–9 hours of quality sleep every night to allow your skin to regenerate 🛌.
Manage stress levels, as stress can lead to breakouts and dull skin 😌.
Be consistent—results take time, so stick to your routine! 🕒
A well-structured AM and PM skincare routine is your secret weapon for radiant, healthy skin. While it may take a little time to find the products that work best for you, the effort is worth it. Remember, skincare isn’t just self-care; it’s self-love. Treat your skin with kindness, and it’ll reward you with a natural glow! 🌺✨

How to get your life together : a guide
1) Make a list of goals you want to achieve, if you don’t you’re going to forget about them. It could be yearly goals, it could be monthly goals or both (even better). Just write them down and put them somewhere you can see them every day. Also don’t forget about the smart rule :
Specific (simple, sensible, significant).
Measurable (meaningful, motivating).
Achievable (agreed, attainable).
Relevant (reasonable, realistic and resourced, results-based).
Time bound (time-based, time limited, time/cost limited, timely, time-sensitive).
2) Choose habits which will lead your towards your goals. You want to be a the top of your class ? Start by actually completing your homework, assignments and by paying attention in class. You want strong and healthy hair ? Stop using heat every day and start a hair care routine. Yes, it is that simple trust me.
3) Starts adding those habits to your daily life and be realistic. For exemple, if you want to achieve your dream body start exercising and eating healthy. You want to keep those achievable and enjoyable : if you used to never step away from your couch for too long, you are not going to exercise 5 times a week right away. Start small, start with maybe twice a week and then add more when you feel ready.
4) Stop making excuses. You cannot reach your goals if you find excuses to stay home and do nothing such as « I will start on Monday » or « I am a bit tired today so I’ll just rest ». Don’t, if you really are motivated you will start right now and won’t skip your workout. The less you do, the less you wanna do.
5) Remind yourself why you wanna reach those goals and motivate yourself. You cannot solely rely on motivation, you have to create it yourself. Make vision boards of you dream life and ask yourself why you want to get out of your actual situation. If you already feel miserable and lazy in your every day life it won’t hurt to at least try, right ?
6) Enjoy the steps. That one is the most important. If you feel like completing a workout is torture, you will last a week or two tops. If doing your skin care or a daily walk feels boring, you will stop doing it. Try making those interesting by watching a movie or listening a podcast at the same time, find a workout you’re actually able to enjoy.
7) Finally : enjoy your results. If you’ve kept up the work for months, even weeks you will see them. People will start praising you about your hair, your skin… You will be able to see those changes yourself when you look at your body or at your grades. You will also be more confident because when you decide to put in the work and get results, you will be so proud of yourself I can assure you that.

Sunshine Happiness Spell
🌞
A quick and easy spell to send happiness & good fortune to yourself or another.
tiny piece of dried orange peel (i find it best if it had been previously dried in the sun as an offering😉), for happiness
permanent marker, for writing
citrine & clear quartz (or any sun crystals)
representation of recipient (can be a photo or anything of significance that identifies who is receiving this joy)
lighter
cauldron / fireproof tray
sigil of good-fortune
Arrange an altar dedicated to the recipient & the Sun.
Inscribe the recipient’s initials on one side of the orange peel, and a good-fortune sigil on the inside.
Proceed to safely burn the orange peel. Ask the powerful Father Sun to bring happiness and luck to this person. Be excited for them! Allow the photo of the recipient pass through the smoke. Send Loving Kindness.
After the orange peel is completely burned, smile up at the Sun, and know that He is ready to send that energy to the recipient as soon as they next touch His light.
So that’s it! Easy-peasy, right? This was such a joyful spell to work on, and I love how quickly this one works.
Cheers,
Sage☀️ 🏹

If you want to reinvent and rebrand yourself, or just continue to make positive improvements in 2024, the first thing is to evaluate your current year.
Reflect on how things went for you. Was there continuous growth? Were there many difficult times? Did you discover anything major about yourself and so on. Try to summarise your year in (a) paragraph(s) at least.
Oversee your goals. Which ones you didn’t, did achieve, difficult ones, easy ones and the impacts it had on your life.
Compare your dream girl then and now. Is your visualisation of your life currently different to the one you have now and why?
List any major losses or successes you’ve had in your life, and how they have helped you or why it matters to you.
This evaluation can be as detailed or simple as you like, but as long as you have a decent outline of your year.
To prepare for 2024, you want to know what you want life to be like in 2024. Something realistic to a point, but still is a growth journey.
Think of something that you can associate with 2024. This can be a word, a symbol, art, a song, a book, a movie, a place, or even just all of these things. When you think about your goals and your journey, this is your theme. This is something that should relate to your goals or your dream girl somehow.
For me, I chose a word and a song. My word is growth because, for me, 2023 was a year for just being able to shed my old self which I did achieve however I just felt there wasn’t much growth as an actual person and not just in my environment.
For my song, it is Mayflowers by Proleters and Taskrok. This song is the epitome of what I would imagine, is the most polished mindset. I would say perfect, but having a perfect mindset is near impossible. I want to have a mindset glow up because I’ve just been hard on myself lately which has caused my confidence to plummet.
Before we get into the fun part of the preparation stage, we have to do some organisation in our life. I want you to take a look at your daily lifestyle and your habits, and be completely unashamed about this.
Then categorise these habits into two sections; Leave and Leap. Leave habits are habits that you are leaving behind in 2023, leap habits are habits that are leaping into 2024 with you.
Any habits that are self-destructive, addictive or generally harmful are leave habits. Beneficial habits and self-building are leaping with you into the new year.
I want you to do the same for people in your life, all environments (school, work, online etc) and anything else you believe needs to be sorted out.
This works better if you can reason with yourself why it is a leaping or leaving habit, but don’t try to convince yourself a bad habit is good or vice versa.
Now, I want you to document an honest paragraph about who you are right now. List your bad and good habits, your strengths and weaknesses and your behaviours. This one requires a bit more detail.
Then, write a paragraph about who you will be in 2024, your dream girl. List her habits, lifestyle, behaviours, mindset, strengths and anything else extra. I’ll explain later but do not include materialistic desires in this your dream girl. Once again, this one also requires details.
Stemming from those paragraphs, I want you to create specific and achievable goals. SMART goals are best, but I want to introduce you to how I set goals.
I divide my year into quarters. For each 3 months, I have 3-5 goals for those months. Usually, it’s one from each area of my life. Then, I break down these goals.
Why do I want to do this goal - For motivation and commitment.
How it’ll benefit me - For the sake of improvement.
How can I involve myself in this goal - To achieve your goal.
I prefer this method because it is a lot simpler for me, as I am just a young girl and my bigger goals are more in the future in which I’ll utilise SMART goals.
To create good goals; Make sure they align with your current values and life principles first. Try to avoid creating goals that you have just taken from the internet. Those goals just aren’t it and you most likely won’t follow through with it.
Be specific. Don’t say you want to eat more healthily, instead say you want to include (a certain group of veggies/fruits) in your diet and reduce the intake of ( food/drink).
E.g using eating healthy example
I want to eat healthy -> I want to start including foods that boost my immunity system and support my skin while reducing those that have the opposite effect.
Then break down those quarterly goals into monthly, weekly and daily goals. Make these habits that you can establish in your lifestyle and have a way in which you can refer back to your progress.
EXAMPLE GOAL BREAKDOWN
Quarterly Goal - Read 6 books.
Monthly Goal - Finish 2 books.
Weekly Goal - Be or near half way of one book.
Daily Goal - 20 minutes of reading per day.
AREAS TO SET GOALS IN YOUR LIFE
Academics
Spiritual
Fitness/sport
Health and wellbeing
Mental health
Personal life
Relationships
Hobbies and recreation
Now for the best part- vision boards! Collect all of your favourite images that embody your quarters or the whole year, then put them in one place where you can see them regularly!
Some ideas are a scrapbook, Pinterest boards, mood boards, playlists etc.
Choose your theme; It can be your healthy girl era, your academic come back or whatever you want. You can have more than two btw.
Use quotes! Then actually say them in your daily life as a way to shift your mindset to reflect said quote.
Include inspirational people. It doesn't even have to be a millionaire or a very well established person, it could be your friends or someone on the internet.
Be imaginative. Your vision board doesn't have to realistic in my opinion, as the whole point of it to me is that viewing it daily and considering it to be part of your life one day allows for you to open up to those opportunities.
I feel obligated to make this a separate section. This section is practically tangible objects that you want.
However, when choosing this said object that you want, mindfully think about why you want that thing specifically.
It doesn’t have to be meaningful, but as long as each thing on that list has got a purpose to you, and will serve you, I think it’s all good!
If you want, you can definitely start implementing habits before January. However, I believe that as long as you go into 2024 at least knowing who you want to be and shedding away any limiting beliefs, you’ll be fine.
Make sure to incorporate some self care rituals into your daily life as well✨
To end this, I hope everyone has a very merry Christmas! And that 2024 they will achieve to close that gap with their current selves and their dream girl selves! 💖🙏
Something I struggle with is actually starting my journey. I have so many areas that I want to upgrade in and I'm starting to feel overwhelmed. Do you have any advice on that? Thank you!
how to organize your level up journey 🤍
1. take out a piece of paper (or type but it’s better to write things down on paper), and write down each life area (or the ones that you want to change). these include (but not limited to): and make sure you leave a lot of room under each one, probably taking one piece of paper for every life area instead of just using one sheet of paper.
school
work/career
finances
romantic relationships
family
friendships
religion/spirituality
health/fitness
physical appearance
recreational/bucket list
lifestyle
2. leave space under whichever “life areas” you want to level up in and then write your goals. i suggest 1-3 goals under each, but no more than 5. you don’t want to overwhelm yourself even more. an example of this could look like:
1. physical appearance
- i want to grow longer hair
- i want to clear my skin
- i want to master the perfect makeup look
3. under each one of your goals, write 1-2 habits you could do everyday to work on that goal. you can write more habits if you want to, but again, the goal is to not overwhelm you anymore than you already feel. an example of this could look like:
1. physical appearance
- i want to grow longer hair
• sleep on satin pillow case
• heatless hairstyles daily
4. then start working on those habits, slowly adding a few more into your routine whenever you feel comfortable. don’t get discouraged if you slip a lot during the beginning; that’s completely normal. just keep working on being consistent and it’ll eventually become second nature. then you add more habits and eventually, habits turn into successes.
