Tips for Painting Your Nails

-
 For a while now I've been playing around with nail polish. It's super cute and I love to wear it especially when I'm wearing a boring outfit.
 But sometimes it can be a pain to paint your nails, so here are some tips that have helped me and hopefully help you!

1. Choosing the nail polish. I really don't have a favorite brand I just go by the thickness, color and then, of course, the price. For clear or clear with sparkles, it really doesn't matter. If you wanted it to stay longer go for a more expensive brand, but I get mine from the dollar tree and it last about a week, so that's great! For color, I would say if it's a darker color such as black, blue, and even red can be thicker. For lighter colors, try to go a little thinner.

2. Use a top and bottom coat. Using a bottom coat will protect your nails if your using color. If you paint your nails a lot you might notice your nails having a gross yellow or greenish tint. That's just what happens, but a bottom coat will help prevent that.
 A top coat is great to make the nail polish stay on longer. It also helps smooth out any bumps or brush marks.

3. Do it while you doing something that doesn't involve your hands. When you're watching a movie you're not really using your hands and you're distracted so, just paint your nails. They'll have plenty of time to dry and you won't be awkwardly trying to do things with wet nails.
 Also, things, like reading or doing school, are great.

 4. Paint only a few nails at a time. If your not in a big hurry, paint like two or three of your nails and let them dry then paint two or three more. It's really helpful 'cause if you're kinda clumsy (like me) you won't have to worry about all your nails being wet.
 I also like to make it a reward, I have to read one chapter then I can paint two nails. It becomes something more fun.

5. Cover any mistakes with sparkles. 99% of the time I make a mistake and it drives me insane! One great way to cover and thinner areas or brush marks it by adding sparkles on top. They add a fun touch while still remaining understated. I also like to do one nail without color and just do sparkles. (like in the pic)

I hope you enjoyed! And please tell me what you want to see next!
Bye!

Since I can remember our family has used essential oils and as I’ve gotten older I’ve tried different ones. Essential oils are really essential so that’s what we’re talking about! I’m gonna show you some of my favorite essential oils and what I use them for! Ancient Chinese  Remedy This is my all-time favorite oil. The first time I used it I had a bad headache that normally wouldn’t go away. Well, I put a drop on my finger and rubbed it on my head and only five minutes later my headache was completely gone! I was shocked! I’ve used it for any kind of pain, including stomach aches, back pain, anything else! Tea Tree Okay, this oil is one of those oils where you need it right now! It’s AMAZING! I use it for any cut or scratch and my favorite way to use it is for acne. And I did notice a big difference when using it! It’s antibacterial so great for killing mold or using it as a cleaner.

Check out my sis's blog for her chapter! The Bolt    Detective Dave Burgman slowly pulled out his revolver and cautiously walked toward the warehouse. Arron Oscar, his partner, walked behind him, pistol in hand. Slowly he opened the door, once he had checked to see if it was safe he waved his hand toward Arron. Arron was soon at his side.    "You'll go to the next floor, I'll search down here," Dave told Arron. Arron nodded and walked toward the stairs. Dave looked around the large room, it was empty except for a few old crates.    A shot rang out from the next floor. "Arron!" Dave yelled, running toward the stairs. He ran up the stairs gun in hand. Carefully he walked into one of the rooms. A man stepped out. "Where is my partner?" Dave demanded.    "Oh, that scrawny kid?" the man mocked, "He's taking a little nap. But with him out of the way let me introduce myself, my name is Rex Alberts."    "What have

Minimalist Closet Tips

Hello everyone! I love keeping a small closet where I wear everything in it and can still be creative. It is super easy and so freeing! 1.Purge Your Closet I know everyone and cousin Mitch says this, but it’s the first and most important part of this whole thing. First, ask yourself if it brings you joy. If it doesn't give it away, and don’t hold on to things that could or did bring you joy. Everyone has those things and those are the ones that fill your closet. Now if you’ve done that but you just seem to not be wearing all your clothes try turning all your hangers backward and whenever you wear something to turn it the right way. This is great to show you what you actually like and wear. Now if you're still not ready to part with those items put them in a box or something and leave them there for 1-3 months. Most likely you won’t go to the box and get out that old sweater or those flats. Also, make sure that you're not holding onto things just because you
