Wash, tone, eye cream, serum, moisturizer, with a few facial exercises thrown in! And of course brushing teeth and contacts out. </p> <p>In our room, I turn the ceiling fan on, and all the other lights out except my bedside table light. I used to play forEVER on my tablet, the Marvel Puzzle Fighter game, but I'm trying to break our habit of having electronics in the bedroom at night. So now I'm trying to just read a few chapters. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bedtime-routine#post-1641160 Fri, 16 May 2014 23:16:38 +0000 keepcalmcarrie 1641160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsLilybugg: my LO is 14 months and WAS nearly bottle weaned, but I've been bringing a bottle to my bedroom for the past few nights because he's waking up (from his cold, teething, growth spurt, or all three) and just cannot seem to settle without it right now.</p> <p>The fan is part of my DH's routine just before bed :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bedtime-routine#post-1641158 Fri, 16 May 2014 23:13:11 +0000 MrsLilybugg 1641158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I brush my teeth, put water in a bottle for LO, pour some for myself, get a diaper and her formula container in case BFing isn't enough for her and then being it all upstairs while carrying sleeping baby. After I've placed her in bed I turn on fan, nightlight (I have phobia of dark), and then read HB posts for a bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bedtime-routine#post-1641157 Fri, 16 May 2014 23:09:58 +0000 keepcalmcarrie 1641157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: I need to dig my Clarisonic out of a moving box (um, we moved last summer...) I loved that brush though, my face always felt so squeaky clean! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bedtime-routine#post-1641153 Fri, 16 May 2014 22:54:04 +0000 HLK208 1641153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I clean, veg on the couch, then head to my bedroom and brush/floss, use my clarisonic, moisturize my face, use lip balm, drink water and get in bed. I usually hellobee, read, or check out etsy before lights out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-bedtime-routine#post-1641147 Fri, 16 May 2014 22:45:03 +0000 keepcalmcarrie 1641147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What do you do to "get ready for bed" every night? I get a huge glass of water, wash my face, brush my teeth, put on lip balm, light a candle on my nightstand, and browse HB or FB for 10 minutes or so before lights out. I don't really deviate from this routine, it's relaxing! </p> <p>What are your pre-sleep rituals? </p>
