In this vlog, Natalie Barnes walks viewers through her nightly routine, blending cozy self‑care with productivity. She begins by letting her dogs out in the front yard, then spends time cuddling and chatting with them while they watch the dog movie "Bolt." Natalie changes into pajamas, lights scented candles, and updates her bullet journal (a Amanda Rach Lee‑styled journal) with a mood tracker and new‑month coloring. She collaborates with her sister on work using laptops, then tidies her room before snacking on organic chips and lime‑garlic salsa. After deciding to watch "Dexter," she records a TikTok, brushes her teeth with NovaShine whitening toothpaste, applies lotion, and removes makeup using Marcelle micellar water. She finishes with a clear St. Tropez fake‑tan gel, reflects on her difficulty choosing a night‑time show, and ends by getting into bed. Throughout, she promotes the products she uses, encourages viewers to like, comment, and subscribe, and shares links to the journal and skincare items.

Hey guys, what's up? It's me, Natalie Barnes. Welcome to or welcome back to my YouTube channel. So today's video, I'm going to be showing you guys my cozy productive night routine. The first thing I do when I get back home is I let my dogs out. Today I let them out in my front yard. I usually don't do this. They're normally in my backyard, but But I don't know, I just wanted them to be in the front yard today, and they're trained. Don't come at me that they're not on leashes. They're not gonna run away. They're very, very good. And if you're wondering why I have only one sock on, it's because I dropped a bed on my foot. It kind of damaged my toe. It's fine. I'm fine. So now we're in my room. First thing I like to do is talk to my dogs. So I pick them up on my bed and we have a little bit of a convo. I usually ask them how their day is and what they do today and give them little scratchies and tell them how much I love them. I think this is their favorite part of the day. They just love it so much, and I love it too. Next, what I normally do is I put on a movie for all of us They love watching dog movies. We're trying to decide as a fam what to watch. Today we watched Bolt. My dog absolutely loves this movie. While they watch that, I put on my pajamas. Normally just a big t-shirt with shorts. Shorts. It's what I sleep in. That's what I live in. Yeah, as you can see, my dog loves this movie. I think she thinks that she can talk to them, and she can't. I love putting candles in my room. I love lighting them. I love when they smell good. So this is me putting on a candle. I normally do this every single night just to make my room smell super good. Next thing I do is go to my bullet journal and how today went on my mood tracker, if it was a good day, bad day. But today was a new month, so what I did was I started coloring in the new month. I'm obsessed with this bullet journal. It's by Amanda Rach Lee. I think that's her name. I'll put her YouTube channel down below. I'm absolutely obsessed with this journal. Um, if you want to buy it, I'll also put the link of where I got it because 10 out of 10, highly recommend. Next thing I did was me and my sister had some work to do, so we just got on our laptops and did some work together. We don't do this every night, but tonight was kind of like a busy night, so that's what we did. And we made a huge mess in my room. I can't go to bed with a messy room, so I had to clean clean everything up, get everything organized and put in the right place before I got in bed. So this is me doing that. Then I kind of got hungry, so of course I had to eat something. We love a little snack at night. So what I have is this chips and salsa. This is actually organic chips. You can get them at Publix, Ralphs, any supermarket. And then the salsa is like a lime and garlic. Oof, so good. And then this is me trying to decide on what to watch. Right now I'm watching Dexter. I love it. Then I was bored, so then I decided to make a TikTok. Follow my TikTok if you don't already. I'm obsessed with TikTok, literally. Then I felt embarrassed and had to pose. You know what? I love myself. Even though I look like a burnt chicken nugget, I still love myself. Now what I'm doing is I'm brushing my teeth. I'm using my Nova Shine toothpaste. This is the mint one. They also have a strawberry, I believe. And then since this is a productive night routine, I had to whiten my teeth. I use NovaShine. I'll put the link below. This stuff really works and it tastes really good, brightens your teeth, makes them super white. This in for 10 minutes. Now I am putting— I put I put lotion on my legs because I live in Florida and my skin is very dry. Now that I'm done with my NovaShine and it's been 10 minutes, it's time to take it out of my mouth. Now I just brush the, the stuff off my teeth. Now it is time to clean up my bathroom a little bit. And now since it's the end of the night, I'm taking off all my makeup. This is my favorite part of the day. I love taking off my makeup. I'm using this Marcelle water. I think that's how you say it. Anyways, I got it at Walgreens and it's really good. Now I'm just spraying my face with some fake tan. I use St. Tropez, the gel clear one. I'll leave that one down too if you guys wanna check it out. I'm obsessed with this one because it's clear and you have to just wait 3 hours and you just wash it off and you're done. I normally just sleep on it and in the morning I just take a shower and just wipe the whole thing off. Um, it leaves no streakiness and this is me just doing my whole body. I know my mitt is very disgusting. I know, I'm very sorry, but— Now I get in bed. I always have trouble on what to watch at night. This is me looking through what I want to watch. Nothing looks good. Normally just fall asleep watching whatever is on. Yeah, that is, that is my night routine. Thank you guys so much for watching. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe, and I will see you guys in my next video. Bye guys!
