Quickie: Speed Dry Nail Polish.

Taking time to pamper yourself is a great thing, all women deserve. But, what happens when you don’t have time for a full mani/pedi; you just have enough time to put a quick coat of polish on the nails. Dry time can put you behind schedule.

Here’s a quick tip to help seal the polish from nicking or smudging. Let the polish air dry for a few minutes. Then, run the nails under lightly running, cold water. Water and oil never mix, so the water will raise the oils in the polish a rinse them away. This will help reduce dry time, and nails won’t be tacky.

Quickie: De-Fog the Mirror after the Shower.

The steam of the shower can fog up the whole bathroom, including the mirror. Not letting the steam stay built up in the bathroom once you finished cleansing is important, so turning on the exhaust fan or opening doors will help clear and dry the room out.

But, if you are in a hurry to use the mirror, a quick tip to defog the mirror quickly is use a hair dryer. A hair dyer will cut down the time from minutes to seconds, so you can see a clear reflection again.

Keep Bra from Being Exposed. Quickie:

Quickie: Keep Bra from Being Exposed.

Some fashion statements may allow your bra to be seen, but seeing the details of your undergarment, can just be a statement you’re not trying to make either.

If you happen to deal with slippage of the shirt, which exposes the bra, here’s a quick tip. Use double-sided tape on the bra, while placing your shirt in place. This will keep the slippage from occurring, and sending someone, a wrong message.

(SIDE NOTE: Double-sided tape works well on skin too, to help keep clothes in place. Don’t have double-sided tape? Use regular tape and loop it over to make a circle of adhesive, for you to place where necessary.)

Prime your Zippers. Quickie:

Quickie: Prime your Zippers.

Seasons change and so do our wardrobes. Whether you’re putting jackets away or pulling them out, boot swaps, and jeans for jean shorts; be sure to prime your zippers, as I like to say.

Zippers get stuck and tricky after awhile. Struggling with a zipper, can only lead to an uncomfortable moment. Get a sharp pencil and run it across all your zippers before storing clothes or after pulling them out. The graphite will give the zipper a whole new life.

Put Out the Burn on Hair Dye.

Put out the burn on hair dye.


Does your scalp burn when you dye it? For sensitive scalps that burn, when dying hair, add a packet of sweetener to the bottle. This process will subside the burning sensation of the dye on the scalp.
