Hey guys! π I wrote this a long time ago and can’t get over the fact that I didn’t post it (please tell me if I actually did…if not I’m sooo wasteful π) so I’m proud to present it today! As like most of my posts I find the introduction to be the hardest part to write so this time it’s worked in my favor as I have a lot of explaining to do (annnnddd it’s done! π).
Summer can be a fun time but it is also very HOT so I have some essentials that get me through it and I can’t wait to share them with you and see if you can relate + hear what gets you through warm weather! π (As I still need all the help I can get! π).
Facial mist
I am obsessed with facial mists as they hydrate so well! In our kitchen we keep a bottle of it out on the unit for anyone that passes by as it really wakes you up. Just remember to keep your eyes shut when you spray! π² (Which annoyingly I needed telling the first few times as I was too scared to shut my eyes and spray π).
A flask
Now this may sound strange but throughout the hot summer days I keep on loving tea (I take after my nan with this π) and find it refreshing. Apparently it’s because the weather is warm so you’re warm and when you drink something that’s also warm it cools you down (probably not anything scientific behind it but I believe it! π). Most of the time I admit my flask is full of water so I can get in 2 litres a day though! (And recently I’ve been mixing in MiWadi Summer Fruits π).
My fan
Before I go to bed + when I wake up I sit in front of the fan in my room and it is simply delightful ππ At the beginning of the season I had to do this a lot more and also on a higher setting but it’s going down now as the weather gets colder and better (in my opinion π).
Popsicles
I’ve been snacking on coconut water popsicles and I instantly feel the benefits of them as well as think they taste GOOD. Everyone’s been going about their day snacking on them including our dogs who we got pet alternatives for πΆπ
An open window
I’m beginning to doubt this as SO many butterflies are getting into the house via the open windows and I don’t know if I’ve told you this before but they freak me out. I think they’re pretty and all that but when they’re moving about something switches on inside of me and I can’t handle it π they’re like pretty moths that have everybody under their spell but I can see through them (not literally but you know what I mean π). An open window let’s in fresh air which I am eternally grateful for throughout Summertime π
Gel eye masks
I can’t count how many I have but I keep losing them and they’re sooo cheap so I just pick up more ππ I didn’t originally buy these due to hot weather (I bought them for my migraines) but they are versatile so I later discovered they are great in helping to cool down!
And there we have it! Be sure to let me know what your Summer weather essentials are. I’m off to go sit in front of the fan π I hope you have a lovely day! β€οΈ

I don’t think I’d survive summer without it! π I’m glad I’m not the only one! I love discovering new herbal teas but always retreat back to a nice plain tea. Thank you!! ππ

It is scientific that hot drinks can cool down as when go down throat a message goes straight to hypothalamus in brain π§ to say you are too hot. So then brain π§ sends messages to cool you down.

Ooohh cool!! That’s so interesting π² I had no idea whether or not it was scientific or if I/my nan had come up with it at some point (we must be secret scientists π). Thank you for reading and taking the time to comment! ππ
