Easy 10 Minute Dotticure Tutorial | #SallyBeauty

It’s that time of year when things start to get a little crazy. It seems like as soon as Halloween is over I get thrown into this time warp and before I know it I’m scrambling to find a turkey, make sure all of the gifts I need are purchased, and checking that I have just enough glitter for New Years Eve. During this season it’s so hard to sit back and remember to take time for ourselves. Are you with me? It just gets all kinds of crazy. I have a few little pick me ups that I always turn to during this season to be sure I am remembering to have some me time. Having my nails done is something that always makes me feel put together and I have come to depend on some pretty quick manicures to throw together while everything else is going on. Sometimes we only have 10 minutes for ourselves so I want to share this Easy 10 Minute Dotticure with you all today so when the season gets a little overwhelming, you can make sure you’re taking care of you!

10 Minute Dotticure Supplies from Sally Beauty | #SallyBeauty

The best thing about this manicure is you don’t need nail art tools. You can grab a couple of bobby pins and get the same effect. I chose to go with four shades that I felt were perfect for fall. My base coat is OPI Samoan Sand, the perfect nude. For the dots, OPI Lincoln Park After Dark, OPI Funny Bunny, and OPI Bogota Blackberry. The nude shade as a base really makes the dots pop. These colors are both from Sally Beauty and this month they come with a gift with purchase! One set comes with a scarf which you can find here and the other with cute cosmetic bags that can be found here.

Like I said, this is super quick and easy enough to be finished start to finish in 10 minutes. You’re going to use a bobby pin for each step of the dots.

STEP ONE //  Choose your base coat and do two coats over all of your nails. I chose to go with the nude on this so the other colors would really pop. I feel like nude will work perfectly with the season.

STEP TWO //  Your first dots are going to be your biggest. For this I used the maroon color because it had a nice shimmer to it. I alternated between top and bottom because I already had the half moon shape in mind for this and wanted it to be a little different. I went with two dots on the middle nail because I knew this would be the accent nail of my dotticure.

STEP THREE  //  Take the next color of your choice and trace around your first placed dot with smaller dots. With the middle nail, place them sporadically as you wish, this nail is just going to have random dots to give you an extra bit of flare.

STEP FOUR  //  You’re going to repeat step three and be sure to add a few more dots onto your accent nail.

See? Quick and easy, right?

Sally Beauty Thanksgifting Event | #SallyBeauty

Sally Beauty is thanking shoppers in November with over 40 gifts with purchase throughout the store. November is a stressful time of year filled with holiday prep, gift lists, and parties. Sally wants shoppers to be able to focus on themselves, get “Thanksgifted” and ultimately treat themselves. They have so many products for November that you can grab a gift with purchase with. I went with two OPI nail polish sets. The first comes with a gorgeous animal print scarf, so you can quite literally wrap yourself wild for the holidays, you can grab one here. The second set comes with two of the cutest cosmetic bags I have ever seen and you can grab yours here.

At such a busy time of year, it is easy to forget about yourself. Sally Beauty is making it so we don’t have to put ourselves on the back burner. I love that!

    So pretty! I always think I’ll do a dotticure then wimp out last second thinking it will take forever, so I’ll definitely have to try your technique.

    I love how the colors pop on the nude base – I never would have thought of that. Love the tutorial. I don’t think I could get consistent different sized dots with bobby pins. Now, where the heck did I put my dotting tool?? I want to try a variation on this cute theme!

“The black and white photo challenge started as “The black and white photo challenge started as a way for women to raise their voice. To stand in solidarity with the women we have lost. To show that one day, it could be their picture plastered across news outlets with a black and white filter.” - @beelzeboobz⁣

In 2019, Turkey had nearly 500 RECORDED femicides. ⁣

The Global Burden of Armed Violence 2014 database shows that between 2007 and 2012, on average, 60,000 women were killed violently around the world. ⁣
⁣
A total of 87,000 women were intentionally killed in 2017. More than half of them (58 per cent) ̶ 50,000 ̶ were killed by intimate partners or family members, meaning that 137 women across the world are killed by a member of their own family every day. More than a third (30,000) of the women intentionally killed in 2017 were killed by their current or former intimate partner ̶ someone they would normally expect to trust.⁣

#WomenSupportingWomen looks a lot like putting in work to actively combat and also recognize violence against women. It looks like voting for political figures who don’t want to take the rights of women away. It looks like donating to causes that actively fight for these women. ⁣

I absolutely wouldn’t tell a woman that her thighs were too big. Or that I hated her stretch marks. Or her belly stuck out too far. Or that her arms were fat. ⁣

So why the frick am I ok saying it to myself? Sometimes we all need a little reminder when we look in the mirrror...⁣

Speak to yourself with grace. If you find yourself experiencing negative self talk ask yourself if you’d say it to someone else. If the answer is no.. full 🛑 ⁣

1️⃣ My hair has been over 50 different colors. Some of them all at the same time. It’s naturally blonde though⠀⁣

2️⃣ I went to an all girls catholic high school and was asked not to take Spanish 3 because I talked too much 🤣⠀⁣
⠀⁣
3️⃣ I have two cats, a dog, and a husband that I’ve been with since I was 16 years old⠀⁣
⠀⁣
4️⃣ I’m a double ♊️ which means I’m talkative, fiercely loyal and endlessly curious. Paired with being an enneagram 8 and it probably also means I’m a little bit psycho 🤣⠀⁣

5️⃣ I listen to murder podcasts to fall asleep.⠀⁣

🔟 Creating this community has been one of my favorite things about life. What will you find here?! Easy beauty tips and tutorials, attainable fashion, endless Amazon finds, but also the UNCOMFORTABLE stuff: pap smears, depression, anxiety, the effects my husbands addiction had on our marriage, eating disorders, struggles with fertility, body acceptance, and being comfortable in your own skin. I try to keep it as real as humanly possible. Being so vulnerable all of the time isn’t the easiest thing but if it helps just one person feel less alone, I’m good! ⠀⁣

Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thin Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. ⁣
⁣
We’re about two hit two years since Jim entered rehab and I’m forever proud of the changes he made and the man he has become⁣
⁣
For the person reading this who loves an addict. It’s changed you, I know. It made you a little harder to reach. It made getting out a bed a little rough. It’s isolated you from groups of friends. Your hearts a little more closed off then it once was. Your trust is a little bit broken. You’ve felt more alone then you ever have. You’ve felt judged. You’ve felt betrayed. You’ve felt at fault.⁣
⁣
Whether you’re past it or still in the trenches. I want you to know some things. ⁣
⁣
I need you to know that it’s not your fault. I need you to know that you could not have done anything differently. I need you to know that you can’t cure it. You didn’t cause it. And you can’t control it. ⁣
⁣
Most of all I need you to know that it gets better. I need you to know that it’s ok to feel happiness again. It’s ok to put yourself first. It’s ok to take care of your. ⁣
⁣
And you’re not alone. ⁣
⁣
I promise you that there’s a light on this side of the tunnel just waiting for you to walk through. And that light doesn’t mean it’s over, it’s just there to guide you. Because every day could be a battle. ⁣
⁣
I stayed for the battle. But that’s not the only way. If you need to leave that’s okay too. Either way. You have to get to that light. ⁣
⁣
Don’t be afraid to reach out for help. Go to a meeting yourself. Grab a book (Co-Dependent No More, was helpful for me) listen to a podcast. Get yourself a village. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF⁣
