What’s On My Bedside Table
I’ve never been good at falling asleep, in fact I’m probably the most productive when I get into bed (not in that way!). I admire those who keep all phones, iPads and computers away from the bedroom, but that hour before bed is my favourite time to catch up on YouTube videos and blogs. I use my YouTube and Bloglovin’ apps to catch up on everything on my iPad which I much prefer rather than having my big laptop in bed.
I’m also currently reading Emily from Cupcakes & Cashmere‘s book. I’ve read her amazing blog for years and everything about this book is beautiful, from the home decor tips to personal styling tips. I also find it so relaxing to read through at night and the imagery is gorgeous. My glasses do live on my bedside table, but whether or not they actually get worn is questionable.
I usually have some kind of candle burning and at the moment it’s the very last bit of my Diptyque Baies which is one of my favourites. The last few beauty steps of my day consist of a bit of Pommade Divine for lip balm and a spritz of Caudalie’s Beauty Elixir. I’ve also recently enjoyed rubbing some of the This Works Sleep Balm on my wrists and behind my ears for a bit of extra help drifting off. I wouldn’t say this is a miracle worker, but the routine of applying it along with the calming scent is very relaxing.
Lastly, I switch on my Sleep Talk app on my iPhone. I am an occasional sleep talker and this app records any noises you may make. It’s the most hilarious thing and I have some VERY funny sleep talking moments saved in my favourites folder.
So that’s my bedside table. What do you keep on yours?
