what my maintenance days have been looking like⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🪞🎀
i do a lot of my maintenance at home but i also get a some of my maintenance done outside of home. i'll make sure to include the spacings of each of these things as well, this is my general schedule to keep me looking and functioning my best…💬🎀
THE SCHEDULE ;
my maintenance days are every other sunday cuz that’s what’s most sustainable for me. it gives me time to reset without burning out or doing too much. it’s the perfect lil refresh every two weeks, i feel brand new by the time i’m done.
MY NAILS ;
so for the summer im giving my nails a bit of a break, if im going to an event or going on a trip i'll just do press ons but im rly prioritizing the health of my nails. SOO i've been keeping my cuticles clean and oiled, shaping my nails and doing soaks every weekend. i soak my nails in a mix of lemon juice, water and olive oil and thats been working rly well for growth and strength of my nails.
i still get regular pedicures though because i always love to have my feet cute and soft and done. i get pedicures 1-2x a month. so since i only have maintenance days 2 times a month i'll typically schedule a pedicure once that month at my go-to salon.
PRO TIP : having a go-to salon is SUCH a fab touch. it just makes the whole pedicure experience better when you have that loyalty and connection. like the nail ladies know you, know your style, and it just feels more personal and luxe…💬🎀
MASSAGES AND SAUNAS ;
this is one of my favorite parts of my maintenance day, and the only other thing i book an appointment for. and honestly one of the most important. massages and saunas are about releasing tension, improving circulation, and detoxing your body. like yes, they’re relaxing, but they’re also so deeply restorative.
i usually book a full body massage once a month, sometimes two if i’m feeling tight or sore. i prefer swedish massages because they’re gentle but super effective. they help with bloating, water retention, and stress, and i always leave feeling lighter (mentally and physically). for lymphatic drainage i do that myself following this video and its super effective.
i aim to do an infrared sauna session every other maintenance day (so about once a month). infrared saunas go deeper than traditional ones, and they’re amazing for detoxing, clearing up your skin, improving sleep, and even boosting your mood. i usually go in for 30-40 mins with my hair up in a claw clip, a big ice water, and a cute robe.
PRO TIP ; stay hydrated! drink lots of water before and after your sauna + massage to flush out toxins and stay healthy, also dont use the sauna on an empty stomach but u dont wanna be too full either. having a light snack before will prevent u from being lightheadedn…💬🎀
WHITENING STRIPS ;
i use the guru nanda whitening strips once a week and these work SO well without being so harsh on my teeth. cuz a lot of these whitening strips r just filled with chemicals and are just too strong and are harmful in the long run. guru nanda isn't so strong that its overbearing but they are effective in the long run. typically what i like to do is put some on my teeth before an everything shower (which we'll get into later) and just leave it on for the whole shower which is about 45 minutes to an hour. then i'll brush my teeth as usual ad voila.
BROWS ;
im actually super fortunate that i have a rly good friend who shapes and trims my brows FOR me and she always does such a good job. this costs me nothing and they always end up looking flawless, i rly hope she pursues a career in cosmetology cuz she's amazing. i dont do it myself cuz its one of those things that if i fuck it up, i fuck up my whole face and im NOT with that. i have shaky hands so i just leave it to her.
MY HAIR ;
in my everything shower i'll do a hair mask that'll sit for the day. oftentimes something homemade thats for hair health and growth and i'll wash it off in the shower. double cleansing with shampoo ALWAYS and then condition as usual. if my hair is in need of a trim i can do that myself and that adds to the overall health of my hair. some of my favorite store-bought hair masks to use if i need it is the fino premium touch hair mask, i've also been loving the gisou hair mask. the packaging is so CUTE and it smells like honey.
DETOXIFYING SKIN ;
i start off by using my facial steamer i got off of amazon, just to open up my pores and get them ready for some detoxification. and then i'll wash my skin with some cetaphil gentle cleanser. then i'll use my aztec facial clay mask and then i'll finish off with my toners, serums, etc. after the clay mask i like to go in with a milky toner like the rhode cleansing milk and a nice thick moisturizer and im done.
TO CLOSE OFF ;
my maintenance days r so important to me bcuz they’re how i show myself that i’m invested in me. like i’m taking the time to take care of me and that means something. it’s calming, it’s grounding, and it just reminds me that i deserve to pour into myself too. 💕
We’re officially moving past the "ordering takeout for every meal" era and leaning into the sheer satisfaction of a fully stocked, vibrant fridge. 🥬🍓 There is something so incredibly grounded about a cart overflowing with organic greens, local eggs, and a literal mountain of fresh citrus—it’s the ultimate main character energy for your kitchen. We’re trading the decision fatigue for meal prep sessions that actually feel like therapy. Whether you’re tossing together a massive kale salad or roasting those perfect brussels sprouts, remember that your fuel is your foundation. Romanticize the grocery run, embrace the colors, and let’s make 2026 the year of feeling amazing from the inside out. 🕯️🍊

Outdated Living Room Trends 2026: What Designers Are Cutting
The all-beige, hyper-minimalist living room is officially checking out. 🕰️
For years, we were told to match everything. Keep it perfectly neutral. Hide the personality. Buy the oversized cloud sectional. But a beautiful home shouldn't feel like a sterile showroom where you can't actually relax.
In 2026, designers are prioritizing architectural integrity over fleeting micro-trends. We are moving past the wavy, scalloped decor that clutters a room. We are trading flat white palettes for rich chocolate browns, deep olive greens, and textured clay.
Instead of buying the catalog-copied matching sets, we are focusing on eclectic layering. It is about mixing the vintage with the contemporary. Blending crisp lines with lived-in, cozy textures. 🌿
Your living room should be a sanctuary that supports your daily rituals, not a space that restricts them. It is time to bring the warmth back. 🤍
Save this post for your next weekend design reset, and hit the link << https://arteresting.net/zwxq >> for the full list of trends designers are cutting this year.
How you spend Sunday evening determines how well you eat, sleep, and perform for the next seven days. The reset ritual is simple: plan your meals, prep a few basics, lay out your workout clothes, review your week ahead, and go to bed at a consistent time. It takes about an hour. The return on that hour is extraordinary — less stress, better food choices, and a feeling of quiet control over your life.
Sunday reset reminder: your first draft doesn’t need to be perfect — it just needs to exist. One paragraph at a time still builds a story worth telling. ✨🖋️
