Pamper evening
March 02, 2013
Yesterday I decided I should treat myself for getting through yet another week of school. I thought this would be something fun to blog about so I guess I will be taking you along with me during my "pamper routine"!

Bath essentials |
I was looking through my little lush collection of bath bombs and was debating on what I wanted to use and I was feeling kind of pink... If you can even feel pink haha, and I chose the comforter bubble bar. This smells so amazing you seriously need to get your hands on this! I cut mine into quarters because its fairly large and I don't think my tiny bath could handle that many bubbles. For extra pinky smell (I guess I can smell pink too) I put a little bit of my snow fairy shower gel into the bath! I also have a candle from bath and body works that I usually burn while I am having a bath because it is a really nice and calming scent. I don't usually do my nails in the bath, but I decided to be a bit different and try it. So when I do my nails I use a cuticle stick, nail file, some sort of nail file that you use for the sides of your nails which I have no clue what it is called, my revlon crazy shine nail buffer, and some cuticle cutters.
So I first just relaxed in the bath with my book which I am currently reading for english and made sure I was submerging my feet in the water to make my heels nice and soft. After reading a chapter or two, I put my hands under water for about 5-10 minutes to soften the cuticles. Next I pushed back my cuticles with my cuticle stick and cut my cuticles... bleh. I then put my hands under water once again for about 2 minutes just to soften my fingers once again, also because I cut too much of my cuticles and bled a little bit so don't be like me and go crazy. Now that my fingers were no longer bleeding, I used my nail file type stick and gently ran it along the sides of my nails to get whatever cuticles I left behind. Once that was over I filed my nails, which is pretty straight forward. I didn't need to file too much because my nails are pretty short at the moment... sadly. Okay so now that my nails are sanded down, I used my nail buffer to get some crazy shine! My nails are done for now, so I relaxed in the bath for a little bit longer, exfoliated my feet, then got out.

After bath essentials |
Once I was out of the bath I lathered myself up with my palmers cocoa body butter applying extra to my feet and put on the fuzziest socks I could find. Then I put my curel hand cream on my hands and my sally hansen cuticle oil to make my cuticles extra soft.

My hands afterwards (still look pretty gross but I tried...) |

Hey! Cute blog :) I find that if you put on polish then jump into the shower it tends to always come off because I get that problem. I don't recommend doing your nails right before a shower. I love nail polish though and would love more nail polish posts! :)
