You Don’t Need More Time for Self-Care
One thing I notice often in our community is this thought: “I want to do DIY beauty and self-care… but I’m just too busy.” Here’s a gentle reframe: You don’t need more time. You need one protected pocket. For me, Friday night is my self-care pocket.Most weeks, I spend less than 15 minutes doing one small thing: - mixing a lip gloss - making a simple face cream - applying a clay mask - or simply resting with a familiar routine Not perfect.Not aesthetic.Just consistent. DIY beauty doesn’t need hours. It works best as micro self-care - small, repeatable, and kind to real life. If this resonates, start here, this is how to apply the Atomic Habits approach: - Pick one day this week - Set aside 15 minutes - Make one simple product or do one calming ritual That’s enough. Small actions, done consistently, create the biggest shifts. Slow. Simple. Sustainable. What’s one 15-minute self-care or DIY beauty ritual you can commit to this coming week? Share it in the comments 👇 P.S.: I shared a deeper reflection on how I manage time, energy, and self-care using simple containers in my January Substack post. If you enjoy longer-form writing and gentle frameworks, you might enjoy it there:👉 https://open.substack.com/pub/jennajolysa/p/how-i-fit-diy-beauty-and-self-care?r=4s560y&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true P.P.S.: This Kissable Fruity Lip Gloss you see in the video was made during my Friday night self-care pocket in less than 15 minutes, no rush, just a simple rhythm. :)

Ingredient Myth Buster
“Natural” doesn’t always mean “safe for everyone.” For example: • Essential oils are natural, but overuse can irritate or damage the skin barrier • Coconut oil works for some, but can be comedogenic or feel drying for others • Fresh aloe vera gel is soothing, but spoils quickly and may cause reactions which is why preserved aloe vera gel is usually safer for regular DIY skincare use 👉 What makes a product skin-friendly isn’t whether it’s “fresh” or “natural” It’s about formulation, stability, and skin condition. In DIY beauty, less is more: - Short ingredient lists - Gentle, well-balanced formulas - Ingredients chosen with intention, not trends😉 It’s always good to practice a skin patch test before using any new ingredient or product, even if it’s natural, to ensure your skin isn’t allergic or sensitive to it. 💁♀️Which ingredient have you been most cautious with?

A Gentle DIY Moment from My December
Today I’m sharing a DIY project I worked on recently 😍 This was specially customised for a 6-month-old baby to help relieve and manage eczema using gentle, natural options. I created a simple combo of Skin Saviour Butter and Organic Hydrating Cream, and removed lavender essential oil to ensure extra dermal safety for delicate baby skin. Moments like this remind me why I love DIY beauty so much, it’s not just about products, but about care, intention, and love. 💬 Now I’d love to hear from you: What handmade beauty projects did you make in December? It can be: - Skincare, hair care, or soap - Something for yourself or a loved one - A handmade gift for the holidays You’re welcome to share a photo or simply tell us in words ☺️ Every small creation matters here.🫶🏻

Looking Ahead: Your DIY Beauty Goals for 2026
As we step into a new year, I’d love to pause and look forward together. DIY beauty is a personal journey, some of us are just beginning, some are building consistency, and others are exploring how this passion might grow over time. 💁♀️ What’s one DIY beauty goal or wish you have for 2026? It can be something simple or something you’re slowly dreaming about, such as: - Making your first handmade skincare product - Creating a gentle routine for yourself or your family - Learning more about natural ingredients - Gaining confidence in formulating - Exploring ways to earn from this passion at your own pace There’s no right or wrong answer, and no pressure to have everything figured out.Even a small intention counts :) I’ll start - my wish is to grow DIY Beauty Snacks into a warm, global community of 100 women, sharing and spreading the joy and empowerment of DIY beauty together.🙌 What about you?
