Still looking for my favorite cleanser


After a long day at work there is nothing that I want more than just to come home and take care of myself, be gentle with myself. Eat some light dinner, turn on my favorite music and relax...I would love to look forward to taking care of my skin as well, but honesty I don't. I love serums and moisturizing face masks but cleansers- oh they are a nightmare! Am I the only one who feels this way? I would love to find some amazing cleanser in the drugstore, that would remove makeup, even eye makeup and gently clean my skin. I feel like I tried everything, but most of them burn my eyes and leave my skin too dry.. So far I like the one below from Burst's Bess, it has a pleasant scent of oranges but the texture is too sticky.I am thinking maybe I should try some high-end cleansers, like Shiseido or Dior. Maybe then I would look forward to washing my face every night? For now it feel like a chore, I wish it would change..What are yours favorite gentle cleansers?

Saturday




Lazy Saturday, no rush, no work, no worries.. I love days like this!
Woke up without any alarm, needed some hot green tea and went for a long walk to the lake.
It was grey, a little bit chilly day but I took my camera with me just in case I will capture some beautiful colors of the fall... I didn't feel much inspiration today, but the fresh air, lake and the peacefulness in me was all I really needed.

Now off to finish reading a book and continue watching Grace and Frankie on Netflix.
Life is good!

Sleepless nights


     Tonight is another one of my sleepless nights... I usually try to welcome them with open heart and positive mindset,even though they are exhausting me, they are still mine..  When it happens I make big cup of my favorite coco, add a little cinnamon to it, sometimes even honey.
     I try to look for inspiration during the night hours, a poem, song or a painting.. I try to find myself through art, find what speaks to me, makes me feel something.
Tonight I came across this poem by Brian Patten:

I have changed the numbers on my watch,
And now perhaps something else will change.
Now perhaps
At precisely 2a.m.
You will not get up
And gathering your things together
Go forever.
Perhaps now you will find it is
Far too early to go,
Or far too late,
And stay forever
