A Day-In-The-Life Of A Fashion, Beauty & Lifestyle Tiktoker
Created in partnership with IMPLUSE
THE SIGNATURE COLLECTION
Impulse has collaborated with six influencers to create a signature scent based on what femininity and empowerment means to them. From the Radiant Soul body mist to Sweet Cherub and Inner Glow, there are plenty of scents to choose from. Plus, we’ve partnered with Impulse to take a sneak peek into three of these creators’ lives. From what they do to feel their best to how and when they feel strongest, the next influencer in our series is Lauren Sarah.
A DAY IN LAUREN'S LIFE…
AM
I always start my mornings with a coffee – frothy and with oat milk. After that, I’ll have a shower and start getting ready. Once I’ve put my make-up on, I’ll usually have a little scroll on Instagram to see what I’ve missed.
It’s the small things that make me feel most empowered. For example, having great music playing in the background to hype me up or watching a really good show on Netflix. On a larger scale, it’ll be making sure I'm wearing clothes I feel comfortable in and make-up that makes me feel good. I also like to plan my schedule for the day or coming week – I find that if I have a solid idea of what needs to get done, I’m able to achieve it without feeling overwhelmed.
My go-to brekkie is always yoghurt with some granola, berries and honey. However, if I have a particularly busy day ahead, I like to have something more substantial. A favourite would be toast with avocado and eggs with some pesto on top.
I like having ‘safety outfits’ on hand. By this, I mean some easy formulas I know I can throw on when I need to feel more confident. At the moment, this would be a great pair of jeans with a red cardigan – colour is such a simple way of making myself feel better, and it keeps the outfit interesting, too.
The scent I’m wearing today reminds me of being on holiday. It’s my scent from the Impulse collection and it just exudes good vibes. I definitely believe fragrance has an effect on your mood. If I smell good, I feel good – so I love including this one in my getting-ready routine. This fragrance specifically is scented with creamy vanilla, delicate diamond orchid, and the essence of raspberry macaron – ideal if you love a woody floral aroma.
PM
Movement empowers me. By moving and training my body, it grows stronger. Having a strong body means I can do more with it. I enjoy lifting weights and doing cardio, and find this combination makes me feel my best. Running is also my go-to. I love going for a 5k run but with no time pressure or goals – just at my own pace. If I’m feeling like it, I’ll push myself.
Empowerment is also about allowing myself to slow down. I want to enjoy every step of my self-care routine – to put myself first and really take care of my body.
I’m a total bookworm and reading is an integral part of my wind-down routine. I know I’m late to the game, but I’m currently obsessed with It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover; I can’t put it down.
At night, I never have the big lights on. I love soft lighting and candles for warmth – it’s all about creating really tranquil energy. Sometimes I’ll give my space a clean too, so that all I need to do is settle into my sofa and relax. Scent is super important here too, so candles and applying a bit more of my scent from Impulse are non-negotiables.
Fajitas are my favourite dinner to cook. It’s just so quick and always an easy way to work in great flavours. When it comes to dessert – it’s a little random, but hear me out. I take a protein bar and pop it in the microwave for 30 seconds. It turns into the gooiest, warmest dessert – almost like a brownie. You need to use the ones that are solid with a filling inside, or it won't work, but trust me, it’s a game changer.
After I’ve done my nighttime skincare, I catch up on any YouTube videos I’ve missed, which relaxes me. Alternatively, I’ll put on a couple of comforting TV show that I know and love.
