I really need to start paying attention to myself more. Don’t get your hopes up, I still love my yoga pants – but it’s becoming more and more clear that I’m not getting any younger and I’ve finally learned that a fresh coat of nail polish can change my mood for the better.
A few weeks ago I got my hair done — it had been almost six months since my last appointment (I told you I need to start paying attention to myself more often). Sometime over the past six months, my body became allergic to the same dye mixture that my stylist has been using for years. Apparently, my sensitive skin is becoming more and more sensitive by the day.
It was that amazingly uncomfortable experience that led me to my bathroom cabinet and coaxed me to toss everything one year or older and/or everything that I couldn’t remember when or where I got it.
It’s time to start fresh.

I gave the Arcona Triad Pads more than a week before I said anything because the results I saw after just two days was borderline mind-boggling.
A cleanser and toner in one that I can take with me on the go? I was pretty much sold.
The circular wipes that don’t require a washcloth and harbor the fear that I’m going to tip the entire bottle of toner over the second day I own it? Totally sold.

Another thing I’ve been doing to keep myself accountable… every time I get my hair done, I get a new nail polish. This time? I went with OPI Atomic Orange. Its way less orange in person and coordinates really well with coral, pinks and browns.

And finally, to dress up my yoga pants (and my jeans), I’m currently coveting this Mulu striped infinity scarf by Raven and Lily. I’m quite amazed how put together I can look with a fun scarf, fresh color on my toes and a glow to my face.
I think I like this whole holding myself accountable thing…
What do you do to make yourself feel better?
