Galentine’s Day is one of my favorite holidays. It’s the perfect time to spend with your besties, your sisters, your close friends, and relatives. Whether you’re simply hosting a day to share with your besties or planning a getaway. I wanted to share some must-have tips to make this experience truly memorable.

Itinerary
It's so important to create an Itinerary to let everyone know what the plans are for the day. This itinerary does not have to be perfect. However, it’s nice to have an outline of what is going to happen that day below are a few suggestions for your itinerary.

Itinerary Ideas

Brunch
At-Home Spa Experience
Yoga
Nighttime Affirmations
Wellness moment
Movie Time

Photo Color Scheme or Theme
Galentine’s Day is the ultimate day to take super cute photos with your besties. Why not create a color scheme for photos. Where typically everyone where’s the same color or everyone wears PJs, or their favorite onesies or slip. The possibilities are truly endless.

Food
One of the best parts of Valentine’s Day is the yummy food that you’re going to have. What I love about this is that you can dress things as up or down to your liking. You can also order the food or you can create a potluck style to assign things for everyone to bring.

Reminder
I typically send a reminder prior to the event happening is so easy to forget especially when life is just happening. You can figure out what works best for you and your guest when setting a reminder.

Self-Care Basket
When hosting a getaway I love including a self-care basket. It’s so easy to forget the little things in life. In this basket, I typically include nail polish journals, chocolates, and of course my favorite Summer’s Eve® Hygiene products. What I love above Summer’s Eve® products is that gynecologist tested, free from dyes and parabens, balanced to match a woman’s natural pH, and are gentle enough to use daily.

My Favorite Summer’s Eve® Products

Active Cleansing Wash - Perfect for after a virtual workout or run to keep you feeling refreshed all day long.
Simply Sensitive Cleansing Wash - This cleansing wash is perfect for sensitive skin and is perfect to keep you fresh after a long day.
Blissful Escape Freshening Spray - This is not just a spray. It absorbs moisture, neutralizes odor, is talc-free, and won’t disrupt natural pH, and leaves you feeling refreshed.

The cold winter months have taken over and we are in the midst of Cuffing Season. If you’re unfamiliar, Cuffing Season starts in October and spans across the winter months, going on past Valentine’s Day. It’s the time when people are looking for a companion and trying to get into a relationship.

With the uncertainty of this year, it’s so important to stay connected and keep the fire going with your partner. Below, I’m sharing helpful tips to assist you to thrive this cuffing season, in addition to tips for those still looking for the perfect match.

Virtual Date Night
Unfortunately, many people are still unable to go out to dinner on a whim. Why not create a virtual date night right at home with your smartphone?! This is the perfect opportunity to get dressed for those special moments, create the perfect ambiance, and enjoy a little virtual quality time over video chat. This is also a wonderful time to explore various recipes and virtually make them together.

Put in Effort
It’s so easy to just think about your wants and needs. Converse with your partner to ensure that they know you're there for them anytime. Don’t be afraid to talk on the phone, video chat on a night in, or text a little more so you can get to know each other better.

Bucket List
It’s so important to keep the spark going. Create a “Bucket List” of things you guys can do this winter to stay close. Examples include:

Have a game night
Snuggle by the fire
Build a snowman
Make hot cocoa
Stream a movie on your smartphone

Whether you have been cuffed this season or you’re still swiping through various apps, it’s so important to make sure you have an affordable and reliable service like NET10 Wireless to keep you connected. NET10 released the new $50 Super Unlimited plan that comes with unlimited talk, text, and high-speed data (that does not throttle) plus 5GB of mobile hotspot data – giving you the freedom to talk, text, and video chat as much as you want.

The best part? Switching to NET10 is easy thanks to the Keep Your Own Phone program, which allows customers to bring their own device to enjoy nationwide coverage on America’s largest and most dependable networks. Spend less time worrying about making the switch and more time connecting with your love.

Didn’t get cuffed this season? I have a quick few tips for you. It’s not too late!

Make your profile stand out and show your authentic self. Most dating apps allow you to upload videos. This is a wonderful way to show your personality.

Reevaluate your profile. Are all of your photos dark and not appealing? Invest in a new phone. With NET10’s no fees phone payment plan, you can get the latest smartphones like iPhone and Samsung Galaxy devices starting just at $5 a month.

Don’t be afraid to make the first move and reach out to someone first. If you’re looking at someone else’s profile, make a comment about a similar connection you might have or something you like from their page.
I hope these tips help you stay connected and thrive through Cuffing Season and beyond. For more information on NET10 Wireless, visit NET10Wireless.com.
