hey guys it's Amanda Steele and today I'm getting under the covers with Cosmopolitan
First app I open is Instagram. I open Instagram first
because there's just always something to look at something entertaining and it
gets my brain going so it kind of wakes me up my alarm sound used to be yes
indeed by Drake and I didn't even choose it it just kind of like happened I don't
know how but then it ruined the song for me so my nighttime skin routine is
usually makeup wipes first take off my makeup I'll wash my face probably like
twice a week I'll do like an exfoliant then I put like a face oil and a
moisturizer on because I've really naturally dry skin that I have to like
moisturize a lot I usually sleep with socks off I feel like I will fall asleep
with socks on but they always come off during the middle of the night and then
I'll like have half a sock on or like one sock and not the other one so it
just gets uncomfortable when you like feel that so I just like to take them
off. Four pillows I have two pillows that are like one kind of pillow and then two
that are different and I need the right balance of like the soft pillow with the
hard pillow and to be able to like move to the other side of my bed and like
have pillows there as well I also like to like hold them sometimes I just need a
lot around me I always have to have lip balm on my nightstand aquaphor is the
go-to the best the only thing that I think works like without a doubt I
usually sleep with just like one blanket the sheet somehow just like comes off
my bed every time I go to sleep so it's just one comforter my go-to pajama look
is the shirt I was maybe wearing the day before and no pants my dream last night
was that I was trying to make a pie but I was looking online for the recipe on
how to make a pie any type of pie and the internet was wiped clean of any
recipes for pies I couldn't figure out how to make this pie it was very
stressful I used to have sci-fi dreams all the time like I was on a different
planet it was just kind of like alien stuff and superpowers just crazy things like that
I like to think that those dreams just were about me being creative and you
know having a mind that is open to like so much but none of it really made sense
I wake up in the middle of the night way too frequently and eat starbursts so I
have this big bag of like just the reds and pinks starbursts my favorite from
those are like the darker pink and their watermelon I also like before bed I feel
like I always eat like peanut butter toast I think I've been dreaming
literally about clothing and making clothes since I was a child and that's
why I think I got to this point I've recently been having some dreams where
I'm out with my friends and I'm wearing an outfit that I just hate so I guess I
kind of inspires me to make sure that I'm putting stuff out there that like I
feel really confident in and I love I have to have at least like part of the
covers on me no matter how hot it is I can't sleep like without some sort of
like pressure on me but a lot of times it's kind of like a straddle thing with
like one leg out and one under I always fall asleep to TV and usually wake up
with it still on I can't sleep without my phone next to me which is pretty bad
I'd get anxiety YouTube videos keep me up at night for sure once I start
watching them I just get into like it's such a deep hole and like each one is so
entertaining and quick and everything you could ever like want to see and
entertain yourself with it's like right there so I can't turn it off once I can
start it I watched a bunch of cooking videos on YouTube that's what I'm
obsessed with right now so like I just watched one where they made cheeseburger
ramen
