Paint Your Nails
Most days, we all could do with an at-home mani pick-me-up. Painting your nails can accessorize your look, and the process itself is quite soothing as well. Are you going to go for classic slightly translucent seashell pink, or some statement-making sparkly navy blue? Who knows, maybe you'll even attempt some fancy nail art.
Sheet masks are basically the perfect way to pass the time -- they're super relaxing and soothing, and they'll leave your skin feeling bouncy, moisturized, and dewy. They're basically a fast, fool-proof home spa treatment, and your skin will majorly thank you when you're done.
