Nails I’ve done on myself lately!!

... Read moreDoing your own nails can be a rewarding and creative hobby that not only saves money but also allows you to express your personal style. For beginners, starting with simple nail art techniques such as applying solid base colors, creating dots or stripes using nail art tools, and experimenting with accent nails can help build confidence and skills over time. Popular nail trends include using dual tone or gradient colors, incorporating minimalistic designs like small hearts or stars, and adding texture with matte or glitter finishes. Using quality nail polishes, base coats, and top coats helps prevent chipping and extends the life of your manicure. It’s important to maintain nail health by keeping nails clean, properly trimmed, and moisturized. Tools like cuticle oils and gentle nail files support healthy nail growth. Watching tutorials and engaging with online nail art communities can provide both inspiration and constructive feedback, enabling continuous improvement. Embracing constructive criticism helps refine your techniques and inspires new ideas. Remember, every nail artist starts somewhere, and practice is key to mastering beautiful DIY nails at home. Nail art can be a fun, stress-relieving hobby that enhances your beauty routine and showcases your creativity.

I know in January I shared my first press on set I ever made… so I thought I’d post an update! I’m working on getting better and having lots of fun :-) I am also admittedly posting with an ulterior motive… that being getting the girlies back on my page LOL. Some of my old posts with my face have

how i’ve been feeling a little more like myself lately 💜
sometimes it’s not huge changes. it’s the little things: comfy clothes, soft glam makeup, good coffee, healthy glow skin, and routines that make me feel put together again ✨ these are my current everyday favorites lately and honestly they help more than I expected 🤍 #cozylifestyle #selfc

I find it difficult to finish projects so I have a million half done ones and I can’t wait to add a million more ! Art is about inspiration and finding something new everyday and so I’m not mad at myself about it and you shouldn’t be disappointed in yourself either !! #crochetinspiration #croche
