These are uncertain times….
I was at Walmart yesterday and that was my first time leaving my house in nearly 3 weeks. It felt weird to drive my car, awkward to walk into a store and have security standing in the produce section as well as the entrances. Some people with masks and gloves. People very much aware of their surroundings and others just standing and conversing with one another.
On this trip I needed to make the most of it because I new I did not want to be coming out again anytime soon. I worked my way over to the personal care section and noticed that most of the press on nails were gone!! I nearly panicked because I thought I would stock up but I only had 3 to choose from This is when I realized that most people who were use to going to the salon are now needing to have their fill ins and are opting to just use press ons for the polished look!!
I have not been to a salon in years. Mostly because I don’t have the time but also since I met my husband he has shared the foot issues people have and usually the poor hygiene of these salons and well this was enough for me to stay away. P.S my husband is a podiatrist. So I have been giving myself a mani and pedi every two weeks for nearly the past 10 years. It’s easy and very satisfying and I love being able to do it on my own and not rely on someone else! A tip that I would like to share with you all is the more you do it the better you get at doing it! You also will learn all the tools you like and dislike! For myself my favorite top coat is the Out the door. I have tried them all including Seche Vite and this in my opinion is way better, more affordable and doesn’t become a goopy mess half way through the bottle. I also use Amalactin religiously on my hands and feet. This is something the cures cracks!! It seriously is like a miracle lotion! As for nail polish colors I’m not at all particular about the brand as much as I like the color. I also ALWAYS wear some sort of slipper around the house. I not only like the cozy feel but also it helps prevent those calluses and cracked feet!
I thought during these uncertain times I would share every thing that I like to use and the importance of still maintaining these good grooming habits. It helps you to feel good about yourself as well as continue with some normalcy! I know that I always feel so much better when my nails are nice and clean and neat!! Have you been doing your nails on your own?
Thanks!!
