All That Glitters
I just love sparkle and glitter, whether it’s a gorgeous eyeshadow or some new bling for my wrist. Come hang out with me!
I’m a reality TV and chat forum addict, and obsessed with planners/stationary/pens.
No need to go to the salon and keep spending all your dough on manis - I've been doing my own nails for three years now. I love Olive & June products, and I follow the steps below to get a salon-worthy manicure for less!
Step 1: Shape Your Nails
Use a nail file to shape your nails to your desired length and shape. Whether you prefer square, round, oval, or another shape, make sure to file in one direction to prevent splitting.
Step 2: Remove Old Nail Polish
Yes! Remove polish AFTER shaping, using a non-acetone nail polish remover to gently remove any old nail polish from your nails. This ensures a clean base for your new manicure.
Step 3: Push Back Cuticles
Use a cuticle pusher or even just your thumb nail to gently push back your cuticles. Be careful not to cut them, as this can lead to infection.
Step 4: Exfoliate
Apply a gentle hand scrub or make your own using sugar and olive oil to exfoliate your hands and nails. Massage the scrub into your hands and nails for a few minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
Step 5: Moisturize
Apply a rich hand cream or cuticle oil to moisturize your hands and nails. Massage it in well, focusing on the cuticles and any dry areas.
Step 6: Apply Base Coat
Once your hands are dry, apply a clear base coat to your nails. This helps protect your nails and creates a smooth surface for your nail polish.
Step 7: Apply Nail Polish
Choose your favorite nail polish color and apply it in thin, even coats. Start with a strip down the middle of your nail, then one on each side. Let each coat dry completely before applying the next.
Step 8: Add a Top Coat
Finish off your manicure with a clear top coat to seal in the color and add shine. This also helps prevent chipping and extends the life of your manicure.
Step 9: Clean Up
Use a small brush dipped in nail polish remover to clean up any polish that got on your skin or cuticles.
Step 10: Final Touches
Once your nails are completely dry, apply a final layer of cuticle oil or hand cream to keep them hydrated and healthy.

Want to do a great facial at home? Here's what you need:
1. Cleanser: Start with a gentle cleanser suitable for your skin type to remove dirt, oil, and makeup.
2. Exfoliator: Choose a facial scrub or exfoliating mask to slough away dead skin cells and reveal brighter, smoother skin.
3. Face Mask: Opt for a hydrating, clarifying, or soothing face mask depending on your skin's needs. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid, clay, or aloe vera.
4. Toner: Use a toner to balance the skin's pH levels and minimize the appearance of pores. Look for alcohol-free formulas.
5. Serum: Apply a targeted serum to address specific skin concerns such as aging, hyperpigmentation, or acne.
6. Moisturizer: Finish with a nourishing moisturizer to hydrate and protect the skin barrier. Choose a formula suitable for your skin type.
7. Sunscreen: If doing the facial during the day, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.
8. Tools: Consider using facial tools such as jade rollers, gua sha tools, or facial cleansing brushes to enhance the efficacy of your facial and promote circulation.
9. Relaxation: Set the mood with calming music, candles, or essential oils to create a spa-like atmosphere and promote relaxation during your at-home facial.
10. Instructions and Tutorials: Watch online tutorials or read guides on proper facial techniques and product application to ensure you're getting the most out of your at-home spa experience.
Remember to patch test new products before applying them to your entire face, and adjust your skincare routine based on your skin's individual needs and sensitivities. Enjoy pampering yourself!

One of my favorite summer beauty tips is to stay hydrated inside and out. Drinking plenty of water keeps your skin hydrated and glowing from within. Additionally, consider using a hydrating facial mist throughout the day to refresh and revitalize your skin, especially in hot weather. Look for mists with ingredients like aloe vera or cucumber to soothe and hydrate your skin while providing a refreshing burst of moisture. ✨✨✨••
