A few days ago, I read a blog post about how painting your nails can change your life. At first, I thought it was a bit of a reach. It’s just nail polish after all– it’s not that deep. After reading through the post in its entirety, it actually made a lot of sense.
Painting your nails helps you to feel more polished and put together. After pulling myself through a particularly difficult time in my life, one of the things that made me feel better was having a fresh coat of nail polish in a color I love.
Essie nail polishes are my favorite because they have such a huge variety of colors. My favorite is the color “Fiji.” I would describe it as a cool toned pale pink shade. It’s so feminine yet very simple and chic.
This is one of those shades of nail polish that really stands out and gets tons of compliments. When I wear it, I feel like I can take on the world. I know it sounds extreme, but when I look good I feel good.
I especially love to wear Essie Fiji towards the end of winter and early spring because every time I catch a glimpse of my finger nails, it’s a little reminder that brighter days are coming.
Thats what it’s all about– finding little things that make you happy and make your day just a little more enjoyable. Whether it’s painting your nails, listening to a podcast or just relaxing with a good book, everyone should find that one thing, no matter how seemingly insignificant, that makes life more fun. I thoroughly believe that taking out a little time to paint your nails can do wonders for your mental well-being.
