February Favorites 2018

Hello lovelies! It is that time of month again. And by that I mean time for another monthly favorites post! I absolutely love writing these posts and I’m so excited to share with you all of my favorite things in February!

Okay so I know it might be weird that I’m posting this in March, but I was actually meant to post it last Tuesday. The reason that I didn’t is because I was feeling like absolute poop last week bc physical therapy was kicking my butt, and I also had a bunch of tests in my classes so I was super busy. ALSO, my school’s wifi is actually trash and I haven’t been able to keep my computer connected to the wifi for longer than like 10 minutes at a time. *insert eye roll emoji* So YEAH, you know, it happens. Anyway, enough of my excuses, let’s get on to my February favs!

October Obsessions 

January Favorites

Beauty

• St. Ives acne control apricot face scrub

I’ve been loving this face scrub! It makes my face so soft and I’ve really noticed my acne clearing up a bit since I started using it. And it smells so good. If you have sensitive skin it probably will irritate your skin because it is quite abrasive, but if you have oily, textured, nonsensitive skin like mine, you might wanna give it a try.

• Equate Astringent

This month I noticed I had an insane amount of acne scarring on my face, so I decided to break down and buy a toner. It has cleared up a bunch of my scarring and I’m supah happy about it.

• Pantene overnight serum

Last month Pantene sent me a package with a bunch of goodies, (I love you forever, Pantene) and the overnight serum is definitely my fav thing that they sent me! It smells AMAZING and when I use it before bed I wake up and my hair looks so nice and wavy. It’s gr8. Definitely try it.

Entertainment

• Youtube

This month I’ve been on a huge youtube kick. When I was younger I used to watch youtube ALL of the time, but as I got older I kind of grew out of it. However, this month I have been watching youtube videos pretty religiously and finding a bunch of new people to subscribe to. I’ve been watching a lot of vegan recipes, thrift flips, and vlogs. If any of you have a youtube channel, drop the link in the comments below and I will check it out! 🙂

• Netflix

Obviously Netflix shows are going to be on my list every single month lol. Here are the ones that I’ve been watching a lot of:

1. Black Mirror
2. The Tudors
3. Greenhouse Academy

I think Black Mirror might’ve been on last months favorites list as well, but what can I say–I’m still loving it. I got really into the Tudors in like mid February, but honestly I had to stop watching so much of it because it really stresses me out. It’s a great show, I just really hate how often Henry screams in people’s faces and there is no comic relief. So, I had to start a different show. Hence where Greenhouse Academy comes in. It’s honestly a really cheesy show and some of the lines are cringy, but I still really like watching it.

Food

• Grilled Cheese

I’ve been making grilled cheese and tomato soup so often this month. It’s a super easy thing to make in my dorm; I just pop the tomato soup in the microwave and use our electric skillet to make my grilled cheese. P.s, if you haven’t read my super useful appliances post, go check it out!

• Smoothies

Sometimes I just don’t feel like eating, but I need like.. something in my system. You know? Anyone else feel me? So I just blend foods together and drink them lolzzz. Nothing weird like spaghetti smoothies (haha) but like.. regular smoothies. Like bananas & stuff. Duh.

I think here pretty soon I’m going to do a post about vegetarian foods that you can make from your dorm room bc I know the struggle of the cafeteria, believe me. So yeah be keeping an eye out for that! 😉

Other

• Having my dog in my dorm with me

At the very end of January I got all of the paperwork done and I finally got to bring my puppy to school with me! It has been so amazing. I love having him here to snuggle with all the time. If you wanna know how I brought my dog to school with me, check out this post!
