Valentine’s Day Week – Treat Yo Self

Massage? Treat yo self. Cupcakes? Treat yo self. Fine leather goods? Treat yo self.

In the same vein as yesterday’s post and in the words of Tom and Donna… why not TREAT YO SELF this week?

• Single? Treat yo self.
• Married? Treat yo self.
• Dating someone? Treat yo self.
• Don’t give a f*ck about Valentine’s Day? Treat yo self.

Here are my picks FOR YOU!

Julep – Paint your claws.

Julep nail color in DARIA

I first encountered Julep’s nail color last year at Fitness Magazine’s FitblogLA! There was a Daria (a dark gray) staring at me, so I put it on and voila – insta-lust. The nail color holds up for over 7 days with my Seche Vite top coat (aka. best top coat in the universe).

Maven monthly box – Julep

Julep also has a monthly subscription that you can sign up for. It’s called Maven. I took the quiz and I got “Classic with a Twist.” Hehe. But wait, before you pay $19.99 per month – Use code FREEBOX to get your first monthly box of beauty FREE!

Movie Tickets – Zone out with children.

“Everything is awesome!” – LEGO movie

Kids movies might not be your thing but I really enjoyed The LEGO Movie! Plus you can be the cool aunt or uncle and take your nieces/nephews/friends’ kids to the movies and treat them to this. When you return them back to their parents, they’ll be singing “Everything is awesome!” nonstop to their parents…. 24/7. Isn’t knowing that worth a movie ticket? (If I had a handlebar mustache, I would twirl it now.)

Or you can regress back to your childhood and watch Joel Kinneman in Robocop. Or you can stream the old Robocop. I’d buy that for a dollar. In this case, it’s $2.99 to rent and stream on Amazon Video.

Tarte – Fake your blush cus you know, you ain’t no virgin no mo’.

Tarte – amazonian clay blush in Fearless

All y’all are old like me and can’t blush naturally anymore. We’re all jaded, you’re not virgins, and nothing makes us blush.  I say pick up one of Tarte’s Amazonian Clay blushes and look alive! When Tarte invited me last spring to their Aqualillies event, I took home a ton of makeup to play with. My number one favorite is the blush. That stuff doesn’t not fade, it’s highly pigmented, and I have oily skin. This is going to be a re-purchase for me!

Books – Feed your brain with fantasy.

Daughter of Smoke and Bone – Laini Taylor – Trilogy

I can’t wait for the third book in this trilogy. I’m so excited that I’ve re-read the first book and now I’m re-reading the second book. If you remember, Daughter of Smoke & Bone and Days of Blood & Starlight were two of my 5 top reads in 2013. I can’t even. They’re so good.

But you don’t have to buy these. Go grab a book and feed your mind. Turn the TV off.

Massage – Hire Someone To Touch You. All Over.

I knew y’all were dirty. I also know many of you hunch over your computers like I do. It’s not good. Go find a spa and book a massage! I found that SpaFinder is having a deal right now! Take 10% off orders of $75 or more through February 15. Use code SWEET10 at checkout.

If you’re too late for this deal, try this one: Get Triple Points on Orders of $100 or More! Ends February 28!

See, I’m looking out for you and your neck.

Now that you’ve got a few ideas on how to Treat Yo Self, what are you going to do? What have you decided?
