I’ve been wanting to try this technique 🔵

2025/6/30 Edited to

... Read moreNail art has become a popular form of self-expression and creativity among beauty enthusiasts. The polka dot and drag technique is favored for its simplicity and aesthetic appeal. By using a few basic tools such as dotting pens or brushes, you can achieve eye-catching designs that look professional without the need for salon visits. Start with a base color of your choice; light pastels or vibrant hues can add a unique touch to your manicure. After applying the base coat, use a dotting tool to create the polka dot pattern with contrasting colors. To elevate your design, try incorporating stamps or decals, like the adorable plant stamp mentioned, which can bring an extra touch of charm to your nails. For those new to nail art, it’s important to practice patience and precision. Allow each layer of polish to dry fully before proceeding to the next step, which ensures a cleaner finish. Don't forget to seal your design with a top coat to enhance its longevity and shine. When exploring nail art techniques, you can find a plethora of resources online, including videos and tutorials that cater to varying skill levels, from beginners to more advanced artists. Engaging with the community through hashtags like #nailart, #diynails, and others fosters camaraderie and allows you to share your progress or seek advice. It’s all about having fun and letting your creativity shine!

❌ Do not push back when doing a Bulgarian split squat like the first clip because you are actually working more on your quads. ✨ In the second clip, I’m hinging at my hips forward and I’m moving straight down. That is going to set my glutes on fire and make them grow! 🍑 For a glute targeted

I've been wanting to do this for so long~ 📖
one of my main goals for this year was to read more books, but a couple months went by and I didn't read at all! I knew I needed to get out of this slump... so I decided to take advantage of my weird obsession with journaling and documenting things and I started my very own reading journal!
