Your ponytail needs re-tying. You absolutely need that thing at the bottom of your handbag. You need a wee. But it's ok because you're just wearing trackies. Nope, wait, there's still underwear to peel down and unroll back up again.
It's the unholy trinity of things that will certainly happen when you're in that precarious position of waiting for your nail polish to dry. There's a meme we see regularly in the beauty circuit, a woman is only helpless when waiting for her nail polish to dry. So we decided to come up with a list of useful (well...debatable. Mostly useful) things you can do while waiting for your nail polish to dry.
But don't do the same old thing. Find a new group or page to follow. I love annoying Kellie by tagging her in World of Puns posts. Time flies when you're irritating your most beloved! Or find a fan page for something you love - you'll be surrounded by people who appreciate the in-jokes and memes. One of my favourites is the Game of Thrones fan page (fake) Peter Dinklage. Or you know, we also know a couple of cool beauty related pages...
Dance
While your nails are drying dance. Waves those arms around and get the air flow going. They'll dry faster and you've got a bit of cardio in. Win-win.
Watch an episode of something.
Like really watch it. No multi tasking. No multi screening. Just sit with your hands still and watch it. An hour later, your nails are dry, and you're still clueless as to what is happening in Westworld.
Delete rubbish photos from your phone.
That's a screenshot from my phone gallery. Milky Chops likes to use my makeup and take selfies. Some of the pictures are cute, some are hilarious. Some are out of focus and need to go to, wherever the deleted stuff goes. And it's not just Milky's pics that fill my phone, we have the 47 bad selfies before each acceptable selfie.
Spring Clean your Netflix List
Watched it, but it's not a keeper? Started it but couldn't finish it? Remove dud items from your Netflix list and make it easier to find something to watch when you're next in the mood to view!
