────────────
On the 24th of March, I will start a one week digital detox from social media. The rules will be made on a seperate post on Sunday, and I will continue making short updates everyday on how it will be going.
────────────
Over the weekend, I'll have to complete this list:
· set a screentime of 0 minutes to all social media apps (including YouTube on my phone)
· set a screentime of 1 hour on Tumblr and Pinterest
· turn off active notifications
· clean out my phone (gallery, usless apps, files...)
· set screen-free zones and hours
· make a new playlist (so I dont have to during the week)
· make a list on paper of things to do instead of using my phone
· plan my week
────────────
irresistibly sweet
“you literally smell edible, what scent is that?”
🍦💗 think warm sugar cookies, vanilla frosting, sweet cotton candy, and creamy cinnamon buns — the kind of scents that turn heads and have people wondering what just walked by (ps. its you!)
I went through my entire collection to find the best products that’ll have you smelling like a literal treat — whether you want fresh-baked vibes or full-on candy-coated goodness, these picks will leave a sweet trail wherever you go ❤︎ ˚₊‧
disclaimer: these are all recommendations based on the products I own. I have tried all of these products myself and can strongly recommend them
fragrances
1. Sweet Tooth - Sabrina Carpenter ( ❤︎ )
as a gourmand girlie, Sweet Tooth hits all the right spots for me. the scent is a burst of sweetness of marshmallow, sugar & ginger. the hint of ginger isn’t my favorite thing in the world, but it still dries down to smell super yummy
2. Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere - Philosophy ( ❤︎ )
this one is basically the older sister of sweet tooth. they smell nearly identical! this fragrance has all the sweetness of sweet tooth without the ginger note. this fragrance also lasts much longer on the skin and forever on clothes! def one of my favorites
3. Viva La Juicy Sucré - Juicy Couture ( ❤︎ )
I made a post going through the notes of this fragrance, and it’s so yummy! it smells super sweet with a hint of citrus. think candy and marshmallows mixed with citrus fruits
4. Tease Sugar Fleur - Victoria’s Secret ( ❤︎ )
my go to scent for the summer! but, it doesn’t smell anything like the name. this fragrance smells like a green candy apple with a super soft, floral feminine undertone. sweet, but in a fruity way
5. Warm Cookie (body mist) - VS Pink ( ❤︎ )
this one was a seasonal scent that came out in fall 2024, but will all be one of my favs from pink! with notes of gingerbread, vanilla icing, and gumdrops, the mist smells like a fruity sugar cookie. that might not sound appealing and it’s not the scentsome people were expecting, but I really love it!
lotions & body butters
1. Sweet Cream (body milk) - prty grl beauty ( ❤︎ )
sweet cream is mentioned many times in this post because its just sooo good! it literally smells like whipped cream and a vanilla ice cream cone. compared to all the other sweet cream products I’ve tried (body wash, body oil, etc) the body milk has a stronger sugary smell to it (which I love!)
2. Cinnamon Buns (body milk) - prty grl beauty ( ❤︎ )
smells exactly like cinammon rolls, but not as sweet as the matching body scrub in my opinion. the cinnamon is very strong in the body milk, and you might like that! I would recommend this pairing this with a vanilla lotion
3. Glazed Donut (body milk) - prty grl beauty ( ❤︎ )
words can’t explain my love for this scent. in the summer I love pairing this with the eos vanilla cashmere lotion. it smells exactly like a fresh box of donuts from krispy kreme mixed with fruit pebbles. it’s a very sweet scent and will forever be one of my favs!
4. Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere (lotion) - Philosophy ( ❤︎ )
smells just like warm baked cookies! this is a more mature gourmand vanilla as it smells like a less artificial version of bath and body works’ warm vanilla sugar. I usually pair it with the matching perfume and the sweet creem body oil from prty grl beauty. I smell just like a bakery!
5. Sugar Cookie (lotion) - Native ( ❤︎ )
the best way to describe this scent would be animal crackers + sugar cubes. it’s extremely sweet! this can be a good or bad thing, depending on what you like. if i’m going for a cupcake and sugar scent, i’ll grab this and lather it all over
shower products
1. Fresh Cream (body wash) - Philosophy ( ❤︎ )
“its perfect for those who like sweet, powdery, and soft scents”! this body wash is super lactonic compared to the warm cashmere version. it’s a very light scent which can make it underwhelming for some people, but perfect for layering with other products
2. Sugar Cookie (body wash) - Native ( ❤︎ )
smells identical to the lotion and hair products. I have almost all the products in this line and I can recommend all of them. with sugar, butter, and vanilla notes, you’ll step out of the shower smells delectable AF
3. Sugar Cookie (shampoo & conditioner) - Native ( ❤︎ )
these two are literally the key to having sweet smelling hair. I absolutely love using this combo on my hair! I would def recommend these products if you don’t know which yummy scented shampoo & conditioner to go with
4. Sweet Cream (body wash & scrub) - prty grl beauty ( ❤︎ )
omg…where do I even begin?! these two products smell sooo good and so sweet! literally a vanilla ice cream cone. as much as I love the smell of these, they’re extremely light in scent. i would recommend using a body wash from another brand before using this one
5. Cinnamon Buns (body scrub) - prty grl beauty ( ❤︎ )
smells exactly like cinnabon and freshly made cinnamon buns. if you like the smell of those, you’ll love this scrub. i pair it with the cinnamon buns body wash from philosophy as they go sooo well together!
body oils
1. Glazed Donut - prty grl beauty ( ❤︎ )
very similar scent to the matching body milk. I love the consistency with all the scents from this brand! if you love the smell of freshly made glazed donuts, you’ll love this. I like to layer this with other scents, but using this with the matching body milk will have you smelling so so sweet
2. Sweet Cream - prty grl beauty ( ❤︎ )
my all time favorite body oil!! it smells sooo sweet and yummy (my bf loves this one!) if you want to smell exactly like a vanilla cupcake, pair this with vanilla & dreamy from vs pink or eos vanilla cashmere. I will wear this scent till I die
3. Brown Sugar Baby - prty grl beauty ( ❤︎ )
sweet and strong. it smells exactly like brown sugar syrup with a hint of caramel and in my opinion the perfect body oil pairing with any vanilla lotion! I love pairing it with eos vanilla cashmere. this body oil will have you smelling delicious and edible!
honorable mentions
more product recs to consider ˚₊‧
1. Vanilla Cashmere (lotion) - eos ( ❤︎ )
one of the best layering lotions for gourmand perfumes and body oils! it goes so well with other baskery-esque scents. this lotion is a staple in any gourmand-lovers collection because of how great it is for layering
2. Sticky Dates (body spray) - Lush ( ❤︎ )
this is an extremely strong scent that I would only recommend using with another scent. this smells nearly identical to maple syrup and caramel. it’s sickeningly sweet (which you might like) but smells too much like maple syrup for me to wear on its own
3. Cake Pop (perfume oil) - prty grl beauty ( ❤︎ )
I really like this one! it smells like a sweet vanilla cake + icing, but not exactly like a birthday cake pop from starbucks. an extremely soft and subtle scent that I love using for my bakery smelling routines!

What I would do to get healthy for summer 🏃🏼♀️🧘🏼♀️
So I’ve seen a lot of summer body talk on tiktok and while I think the way a lot of people are going about it in a very toxic manner I do understand the want to get healthy and fit for summer.
Here is my routine that I am doing to get fit and healthy by June as someone who prioritizes adding value to my life instead of taking away things.
So since I am posting this late February I’m just going to say we have three months until summer. I also recommend tracking your progress in some way. You don’t have to use the scale a tape measure is a great way to measure progress. I also recommend keeping track of non scale victories such as any improvements with a certain exercise, clothes fitting different and mood improvement.
We are gonna start slow and mindful.
I think it is good to track your calories. Not going into a deficit just yet but tracking your maintenance calories (the calories to maintain your weight) and your protein (about 1 gram per pound of body weight). This will make you more mindful of your choices and help you understand some of your eating habits.
THIS IS NOT TO MAKE YOU FEEL ANY SHAME AROUND EATING!!! This is to show how you can fit your favorite foods in with moderation.
For example I recently was one a calorie deficit where I made great progress I still ate my favorite foods. Every Friday night me and my sorority sisters would split two medium dominos pizzas. I still wanted to enjoy that time so early Friday morning I would plug into my app that I was going to eat 2 slices of pizza. Then I would make sure my breakfast and lunch would be lighter but still high protein.
Also if you have a history of EDs follow the advice of your doctor and your plan.
Getting your steps in is a very easy way to raise your base metabolic rate (the number of calories your body uses just by existing)
10,000 is a great goal but if you find that too intimidating or you have other health concerns I recommend starting with just adding 2,000 steps to however many you normally get. So if you normally get 5,000 try for 7,000
I also think if you have access to a gym you should start going there to walk on the treadmill this way you can begin to get over gym anxiety and build the habit of going to the gym.
Water is literally so important and unless you are making a conscious decision to drink water you probably are not getting enough.
2 liters is the goal so buy a big water bottle and make sure it is always with you.
Also if you don’t like the taste of water I like to add lemon juice to mine and there are also great water flavoring options.
This is weird and might just be a me thing but get a straw I drink 10x the water if I have a straw than if I don’t.
You need protein to maintain muscle especially if you are going on a deficit. Like I said you should eat 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight.
If that is really difficult aim for at least 100 grams.
I also recommend finding a protein powder and bar that you like. Also I am not trying to sell you that they are more enjoyable than a candy bar or milkshake but I will say they are more enjoyable than eating a chicken breast. If you have a sweet tooth or don’t eat a lot of meat this is the way to go.
Also really important that you are still getting a proper amount of fiber to keep your digestion moving. Highly recommend Metamucil if this is something you struggle with. But also just making sure you are eating enough fruits and vegetables
Now that we have built up some good habits we are going to add some more.
Now you are going to add some kind of resistance/strength training to your routine.
If you’ve been going to the gym to walk start going to the weight room and grabbing some dumbbells. There are a lot of easy 1 dumbbell full routines on YouTube and TikTok so you can be in a corner and get a full workout.
If you go for a walk outside maybe end it with a YouTube workout video.
Start doing this 3-4 times a week on top of your steps goal.
This is also the time I would look towards your goals and adjust your diet and calories. Maybe you want to lose weight maybe you want to gain some weight.
If you want to lose weight don’t go extreme a deficit of 300 calories is still a deficit. No grown human can survive on 1000 calories or less. Also make sure you are eating enough protein and healthy fats still.
If you want to gain weight make sure you are strength training and upping your protein and calories so you gain muscle and strength.
If you just wanna maintain but improve your diet I suggest making healthy swaps (such as trying different higher protein ingredients, fun healthy snacks, or eating less processed food). There are so many delicious whole food recipes to try I recommend trying a new one a week.
May is about consistency and discipline. By now you most likely have a decent workout schedule and have made some real change with your diet. I recommend making a schedule for the month and sticking too it completely.
Keep track in a journal or habit tracking and see how many days in a row you can maintain your routines and health.
Also set yourself a reward for keeping up. My reward is going to be another piercing once I get back to my home state but it can be really anything that you really want.
If you mess up DO NOT THROW AWAY THE MONTH. Discipline and consistency are hard to build but your hard work does not disappear because you missed a day. The sun will set and rise the next day and it is better to start the day like any other rather than being hard on yourself. You only fail when you give up completely.
This will also be a great time to compare your progress.
Maybe you run faster or lift heavier.
Maybe you actually found healthy food that you like and enjoy making
Maybe you feel more confident in your skin and being active
Whatever it is take notice of the little wins and the big wins
This is what I will be doing to boost my health coming out of winter. I welcome you all to join me. I can’t say I’ll be the most active but if you dm I will see it quicker than my asks if you need to chat.
While diet culture seems to be getting a little extreme rn becoming more healthy is always good and that looks different for everyone.
Xoxo sorry I’m not that active been in a writers block where the only thing that comes to mind is all my chem homework tbh. The summer I should be back to my usual posting schedule but for now I’ll just post when I can. Love you all💋💋
