Bad at doing your nails? Stop blaming yourself

August 19, 2014 by Larissa Coleman Leave a Comment

A new tool by Julep promises to make you better at doing your nails than you ever were. And if you always blamed yourself for not being able to create that perfect manicure, then stop doing it. Maybe it wasn’t you after all, but the sucky tools that you have had at your disposal.

The Julep Plié wand by Julep was created after the company found a lot of self-blame amongst women on Twitter to their nail-polish skills. It got them thinking – is it the women, or the tool. And they got a design firm to investigate and work on a new tool. The result was this wand.

The wand rests in the palm of your hand – and is much longer than the typical nail applicators. It brings more accuracy and control and is supposed to give you a better grip.

What do you think? Is a longer handle tool going to make you better? Or is it just a gimmick?

Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets (For When You Want to Scream into a Pillow)

Free Printable Downloads for Women 40+ Navigating the Hormonal Rollercoaster

Let’s be real—there are days when being a woman over 40 feels like riding a hormone-fueled tilt-a-whirl without the safety bar. Welcome to perimenopause, my friends. If you’ve ever found yourself sweating while standing in front of the fridge, crying over a puppy food commercial, or forgetting why you walked into a room (again), you’re in good company.

That’s exactly why I created these Perimenopause Calm Down Coloring Sheets—printable pages made especially for those “I swear if someone breathes near me I’m going to scream” moments.

What Are Calm Down Sheets?

These aren’t your typical mandala coloring pages. Nope. These were lovingly illustrated with women in perimenopause and menopause in mind—think messy buns, mood swings, and a whole lot of caffeine. Each sheet includes relatable cartoons, cheeky quotes, and stress-relieving doodles that are way more satisfying to color than pretending you’re fine.

They’re perfect for:

Rage coloring during a hot flash

Cooling down after snapping at your partner for chewing too loudly

Unwinding with a glass of wine and a pack of colored pencils

Quiet moments when your brain fog lifts just enough to enjoy something creative

Why Coloring Helps During Perimenopause

There’s science behind this, promise. Coloring helps lower cortisol levels, focus your mind, and gently ease anxious thoughts. It’s like a mindfulness practice, but one that doesn’t require Lycra or a meditation app subscription. And let’s be honest—when the world feels a bit much, giving a snarky mug or frazzled cartoon woman a splash of lavender and hot pink is downright cathartic.
