Lifestyle | Spring Me

Despite the weather denying it - we are in fact in Spring. YAY! Yes okay, snow in spring seems a little farfetched so maybe I'll call in - Winting. Yes, welcome to Winting! Anywho, it is now Winting (Spring) which usually calls for a Spring Clean... I am doing this, but this post is about a spring clean on myself - a new spring me if you will and all the things I either need to start doing... Or stop doing...

Wish me luck...

1. Schedule my skin care...

This sounds silly, but I am awful when it comes to skin care. I don't take my make up off every night and I don't cleanse. I don't use a mask once a week and I'm just plain lazy. So - from now on I vow to remove my make up every night and cleanse, and use a mask once a week. I also vow to put moisturiser on every night as well to stop dry skin!

2. Experiment with make up...

I tend to wear the same make up every day in the same way. I work in a shop so it's not a great place to experiement and our MD is stuffy on appearance so it's kind of hard to be different and experiment every day. However, I am vowing that I will do my eyes differently everyday and wear four different lipsticks a week. I tend to get stuck in a rut with make up so this will help me switch it up!

3. Take care of my hair...

As you may know I've just had a major hair change (for me anyway) so it's the perfect time to overhaul my hair care routine and products and switch it to something that's really going to work and suit me. I've been getting a flaky scalp lately so I need to find a shampoo/conditioner set to help combat this. I also need to start using hair masks - and rebuy a clarifying shampoo. Since I've run out of my BB Sunday Shampoo my hair is definitely missing this.

4. Wardrobe Clearout...

This is probably the toughest thing I will be doing. I plan on getting rid of abour 50% of my clothes. EEK! The reason being I just don't wear most of it! Lately I have been in a jeans/jumper rut. I have so many nice dresses that I could wear so I just need a bit of an outfit overhaul. I have far too many things I don't wear and I have some gorgeous things I need to wear more!

5. Tone up...

I don't go to the gym as I think it's overpriced. I would love to do the exercise classes but again - ridiculously overpriced in my opinion. I love Zumba, but overpriced. So - I want to start running at least three times a week. Now I am going from doing no exercise at all, to running three times a week so I know it is going to take time and if anyone has any pointers I'd appreciate it... But basically, it will probably kill me but I know it will be worth it. I know I'm not fat, and I like that I am curvy, but I could also do with toning a few areas up so here we go!

So there we go - let us all hope that I keep it up, but from now on there is a new Spring me.. Or Winting Me *grins*

What would you change to be a new Spring you? Do we like the name Winting or should I just let it go...
