Oh. So it’s that time of the year again?🙃The official ‘Couples Day’ of the year. The week that makes you realize how lonely you are in life. The week that brands capitalize on by making amazing marketing campaigns dedicated and targeted to lovey-dovey couples that seem to love their partners the most this time of the year. Yes, D-Day for the peaceful lives of single people, and V-Day for Couples. Have you noticed how Instagram also mocks your single life, particularly this time of the year?🙂 “My boyfriend gifted me a face gel mask.” “Oh this is how I surprised my girlfriend.” “This Valentine’s Day, he proposed.” Oh, come on! Cupid just favors some people and decides to ignore others. My valentine’s day will be favoured by my girls! No, for real. Thank god for Galentine’s Day!!
Unless you are living under a rock, you would know how well this Galentine’s Day trend has picked up, for good! What’s Galentine’s Day? As the name suggests – it’s ‘Gals’ Valentine’s Day’ a day for the girls, by the girls, with the girls! Honestly, you don’t have to spend it just with your female friends. Your guy gang can celebrate this day too! You can literally dedicate this day to friendship – you know, skip all the Coupley Coupley stuff and fears of missing out and just go chill with your friends, do some smart skincare with them, relax with face gel masks.
Here are some things that you can do on Galentine’s Day to avoid all the love love drama happening outside.
- Gift Your Girlies:
Why should couples get special treatment? Your Galentine’s gang deserves their own set of gifts. Get a gift for each other – gift could be anything really; beauty products, face gel mask, smart skincare, video games, plants, custom made cards or cups, basically – whatever your friends like! So you know what? You can do a Galentine’s Santa for your friends. You could do chit systems well in advance; write all your names in chats and see which person gets that. You also have websites that do secret Santa name generation for free! Check them out. It would be fun doing a Secret Santa thing in February!
- Pamper Sesh:
‘Cause why not? A pamper session on Galentine’s Day is a must! Some Galentine’s Day essentials are face gel mask, Brazilian Rose Gua Sha stone, Brazilian Jade Face Roller or Brazilian Rose Quartz Face Roller, and steam! All of you girls could put on some face gel mask or a face mask, leave it on, and engage in a nice relaxing session. Talk, gossip, discuss your plans, bitch about all the couples you know! Wash off the mask after 15 minutes. Then, what you can do is give your face a massage with the facial tools mentioned above. That is going to be so relaxing!
- Game Night:
YES! After your relaxing time, activate some endorphins and sporty energy by playing video games. Chill with your girlies playing video games, Pictionary, Trivia, more board games to add more fun to your night!
- Dance The Night Away:
Put on some upbeat Bollywood or English songs and let the rhythm take over. You can even have a fun dance-off with your friends or learn some new dance moves together. Nothing brings people together quite like music and dancing, so let your hair down and enjoy the moment. Who knows, you might even create some hilarious and unforgettable dance memories to laugh about later. So, let the music play and let your inner dancing queen shine
- Movie Marathon:
Put on your favourite series or movies that all of you never get bored of watching! You could watch horror movies, romcoms, thrillers, murder mysteries, and introduce your friends to a dope movie that they have not yet discovered.
- Discuss your future goals:
This could be an inspiring activity for all of you! Jot down your year goals, reflect on the short-term and long-term achievable goals, create your vision board, and resolve to attain them together!
After smart skincare, gel for face, and a dancing sesh, you guys could even cook together on Galentine’s Day! Some of you could get some veggies or spices for dinner, some of you could help in chopping or grating veggies, the group Parent could take up the lead on cooking, and there – you have it – a delicious Galentine’s Day meal!! Have a fun Galentine’s Day 😀
