Happy Valentine’s Day!

With the day here, it’s important to know that you don’t have to be in a romantic relationship to celebrate. Valentine’s day is the perfect excuse to show yourself some love and celebrate the relationship we have with ourselves.

Yes, take a page out of Miley Cyrus’ book – buy yourself flowers, take yourself dancing and hold your own hand!

We’ve rounded up the best ways to treat yourself this Valentine’s Day!

Take yourself on a cinema date

One way to celebrate Valentine’s is by taking yourself on a cinema date. There are lots of films to see in the Cinema right now including All of Us Strangers starring Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott, Bob Marley: One Love, Mean Girls and if you’re in the mood for a rom-com, Anyone but You.

This year luckily for you, Valentine’s Day falls on a Wednesday and Odeon Cinema has just started bargain Wednesdays meaning standard tickets are just €5.95, so round up your gal pals or take yourself on a solo cinema date this Wednesday.

@ODEON Cinemas have launched Bargain Wednesdays in Ireland, where you can get tickets from €5.95 upwards! The biggest and best part of this is that IMAX tickets are only €10.95 on a Wednesday now, which is almostttt half the normal price! 😍 Make sure you book your tickets online to get the best prices and note down which cinemas this is/isn’t available in! I forgot to add in the video but iSense tickets are €8.95 which is a great price for that format too! #bargain #bargainwednesdays #odeon #odeonireland #odeoncinema #cheaptickets #cinema #deal #ireland #irish #fyp #foryou #seantalksmovies

Self-Care Night

Sel care nights are the best nights– arguably even better than a night out.  Self-care is different for everyone but here are some ways to practice it for the ultimate self-care night this Wednesday.

Light a few candles and run yourself a bubble bath. Read your favourite book or watch your favourite film. Make your favourite dessert or treat yourself to a face mask. Whatever your self-care night looks like enjoy it. You deserve it after all.

In the words of Leslie Knope – the queen of Galentines it’s all about “Ladies celebrating ladies”

Single or not everyone should have a galentines night. Have a movie marathon with your favourite gal pals or maybe even a paint-and-sip night. There’s nothing better for the soul than a night with your friends.

With Valentine’s Day falling on a Wednesday this year, what better way to break up the week than a mid-week takeaway? It will give you a much-needed break from cooking and give you that last push to Friday.

Light yourself a candle, put on your favourite chick flick and order your favourite takeaway to celebrate yourself.

Treat yourself to a Wishlist Purchase

If you are anything like us and love to shop, why not treat yourself to an item that’s been on your wish list for a while now that you couldn’t justify buying? Here’s your excuse to spoil yourself.

Whether it’s the skincare item everyone’s been talking about, that makeup that has been recommended to you, or maybe even a handbag you’ve had your eye on for a long time, we’re giving you the green light this Valentine’s Day to make the purchase.
