Hi Everyone! today I will be sharing what's in my skincare fridge! After posting my extra-ness on Instagram some of you requested an inside look at what's inside my skincare fridge... so here it is! hope you enjoy!
So Lately I've been obsessing over the transparent trend, especially after Chanel Spring-Summer 2018 collection where they came out with ridiculously amazing PVC transparent bags! Obviously, as a recent grad, I cannot in any way justify buying a $3,000+ PLASTIC BAG! so I decided to branch out and find some alternatives! To my delightful surprise, there are a vast array of companies coming out with "Chanel inspired" PVC bags and this is where the fun begins!
Love this Chanel Inspired bag from Yesstyle! It looks very similar to the original and it is the perfect type of bag that is NFL and sports game friendly! I think this bag would look amazing on a hot summer day! I could also dress it up with a fun summer dress or even style it with some chic blazer/ office casual peices!
This next one is the perfect "creative" office girl look! perfect for carrying the latest Vouge magazine as well as carrying your laptop or work essentials! If you work in a more creative environment I would highly recommend this bag as your go-to office docs bag that incorporates the PVC trend with practicality. I love that it has a longer shoulder strap and the top handle!
I like this bag with the incorporation of a pouch, it allows you to pull off the transparent vibe without exposing your business to the world! The color combo is totally on trend and it is a more spacious option.
Now, this is the ultimate LUNCH BAG! omg, I would totally use these as a lunch bag if I worked in a creative environment. How cute would it be to have an apple peeking through?! OR a show of your amazing trifold granola and insta-worthy yogurt!? SO CUTE!
Out of all the bag out there, this is the one I got! I decided on going with a simple design that can spice up any outfit! I felt like this simple design will likely be more worn by me and more versatile!
Out of all the bags, I personally decided to go with this one. Sadly, I do not currently work in a creative environment and the only bag out of the ones listed above that I could most likely get some use out of is probably this one! This bag has also been featured in some of my favorite luxury YouTuber's blogs and after their review, I have been obsessed with it and how they have been styled!
Today I decided to write up a little blog post on some of my favorite products I used during law school to help me maintain a good sleep schedule. These tools helped me maintain energy throughout my law school career and even when I got off track from stress/ external factors I was able to use these products to maintain my sleep schedule and boost up my overall productivity. By getting more sleep and maintaining a strict schedule I was able to control my emotional balance and decrease any potentially added stress form not "having my shit together." Hope you guys find these items as helpful as I did!

I used a similar coffee maker that was black in colour. I used to live in a dorm style apartment and had an early 7:00am wake time each morning. I would pre-load the grounded coffee and water in the machine the night before and put a clean mug under it. First thing in the morning right after my alarm would go on I would flick the switch on the side of the machine. While I lay in bed mentally preparing for the day, it would automatically fill my room with the scent of coffee and force me to wake up! I also love this product because you can reuse the built-in filter without having to purchase filter paper or create waste from those plastic inserts. If you are fancy you can get a smart plug for the device and set the wake-time timer on it to make it one less thing for you to worry about. If you're not into consuming coffee I would recommend Ginseng Tea instead! The coffe maker mentioned also works for tea brewing! Just replace the grounded coffee with a tea bag in the same net.
Ginseng tea is a Chinese cult classic! It helps boost energy and doesn't have the "crash" aspect of Coffee. You get natural energy and it is great for improving blood circulation and your immune system as well. FUN FACT: My university roommate actually caught me drinking this one day, he studied Pharmacology and told me that Ginseng actually has a similar chemical strain that is found in ADHD medication! I found that to be unbelievably interesting and it also logically explained why I tended to have better study sessions and concentration having sipped this tea whilst I was reading. My roommate is now in Medical school. Also, I always thought that the increase in productivity was a placebo effect from years of my Chinese mother telling me that I should drink Ginseng tea to make me smarter! Haha guess there was some science behind it!
Self-Heating Lavender Eye Mask
https://amzn.to/2He7jCy
Whenever I was stressed out and couldn't sleep for the life of me, I would use these lavender scented soothing, self-heating eyemasks. Not only does the lavender scent calm you down with added aromatherapy aspects but the heat from the lightweight self-heating mask would relax your face muscles. Instead of tightening your frown muscles and furrowing your brows, you will find yourself to loosen up and relax your overall expression. I found that subconsciously I would begin to put myself in a calmer mood and eventually would fall asleep with the mask on! The fact that it forced me to close my eyes also helped me to fall asleep. By using this tool I was able to put myself to sleep on time and on schedule, and the next morning I would be fully charged with the scheduled 8 hours of sleep!
Re-usable Heated eye Mask If you are more environmentally conscious a different option without the lavender scent I would recommend is this:

I am officially a pillow spray convert! I used to think this was gimmicky and total BS but after giving this a try and keeping an open mind about it I can firmly say that essential oils and aromatherapy actually works for me. I would recommend using this pillow spray.
I'm the type of person who is more productive when the sun is out if this applies to you that means that whenever there is a cloudy - grey skies kind of day you DONT want to work and would rather hibernate in bed or just watch netflix all day long. That is the type of behaviour that will cause you to loose track of your sleep schedule and lower your productivity. To counteract this and to keep myself alive and awake I purchased a SAD Lamp. No, not "sad" but SAD as in Seasonal Affect Disorder lamp. Yes, SAD is a type of depression that changes the mood of a person during cooler months of the season. I have not been medically diagnosed but I found myself wanting to purchase this anyways because I feel like I basically self-diagnosed myself. If you live in any country where the sun tends to take a vacation on you and you notice yourself not being the happy-go-lucky person you usually are, then you most likely have SAD. You should probably look into getting this kind of a lamp to balance out your mood and to also help keep you on track in your study schedule.
On days leading up to a big exam or a big event, I try my best to begin tricking my body into sleeping early and waking up early. Sometimes the stress gets the best of me and I tend to overthink and not be able to fall asleep as intended. As such, my last resort is to take Melatonin pills. This is a natural supplement that, for me, really knocks me out. I do this in combination with setting my alarm at the intended wake up time and force myself into that sleep schedule and routine. For example, if I have a big exam coming up that is a 9:00 AM 3 hour Exam, then I tend to start 3 days prior in training my body to wake up for that time and to be productive and focused during that time frame. I do this by scheduling in 8 hours of sleep (something I need) and waking up and doing intense practice exams between 9AM - 12PM (the time frame of the expected exam), in this way I trick my body into this routine so that on the day of the exam there is a bit of "muscle memory" and I just go at it as if it is my daily routine.
WARNING: This may not be recommended by health practitioners but this is the thing that I did and it WORKED FOR ME, please take all advice on supplements with caution and consult your healthcare professional before doing so.
Camomile Tea

An alternative more safe/ natural option would be trying some Camomille tea which has lower dosages of natural Melatonin in it!

Hey guys! I filmed a video on my turtle's tank set-up for my friend's classmate after she saw it on my Instagram stories and thought I'd throw it up on YouTube for those of you interested in turtle care haha I've had my turtle for YEARS now, bought her as a newly hatched turtle when I was a kid and have kept her happily alive till now! She's super sassy, high maintenance and requires her own tank because she well literally bite any other turtle in her space, and that's pretty much how I named her! Hope you guys enjoy this random video! LOL
