Burnout is so real...

[@aproposheather4796]

Girl… you look beautiful. We love you for your content. No one cares. We are all way harder on ourselves than anyone else would be.

[@naillacquertherapy]

You’re right! I am so hard on myself about my looks, mainly because of the internet. 🙄

[@JJBabbles]

I always enjoy the 'topic Tuesday' videos & it could be a good way to get back into weekly filming. The prompts are already posted, so it takes the pressure off of trying to think of a topic. Always here for behind the scenes business stuff but I'm sure those are more stressful/complicated to film. Hope you continue to feel better 💕

[@naillacquertherapy]

Oh that’s a good idea! Thank you 🖤

[@lisapierce525]

I don’t care if you show up in your pjs as long as it’s not a see-through nightie!😂 Your hair is so pretty and shiny and growing so fast. One thing on the description, that I wish all brands would do, is write whether or not the polish is sheer or opaque. I can’t always tell by swatch photos because some wear a concealer base and don’t acknowledge it. I’ve been disappointed more than once because I thought a polish was opaque and it was still sheer in three coats. Thanks so much for the video! Always good to see your smiling face!❤

[@naillacquertherapy]

Haha oh no, my pajamas consist of tshirts and long pajama pants! Oh that’s a good idea! I’ll do that for sure!

[@lisapierce525]

@ Mine too Janixa. I just had to tease you a little!

[@AlwaysPolished]

I feel you, Janixa! When I make videos, I feel the need to get dressed up and "made" up if going on camera!

[@naillacquertherapy]

I’m trying to ignore those feelings now lol

[@Kats4korner]

I love the holidays but they can be overwhelming too. Happy to hear your business is doing well and you are feeling better😊

[@naillacquertherapy]

Thank you 🖤

[@nanetterodriguez8989]

I feel you, I work from home too, I really have gotten lazy about doing my hair and makeup. Looking forward to your winter/Christmas release.

[@naillacquertherapy]

I always think, “what is the point?” 😂

[@lindabialowas2697]

Breath luv! We are always so hard on ourselves. You are doing great! You always look so pretty. Just keep reminding yourself why you started your own brand. You got this!!!!

[@naillacquertherapy]

Thank you Linda 💜

[@FabiolaSingh-i9x]

You are doing great ❤❤

[@CeruleanHollowNailsIt]

Those roses are lovely. And match your nails!

[@CeruleanHollowNailsIt]

Mostly matching ❤

[@naillacquertherapy]

Yes! They’re so much more beautiful than I expected!

[@MoodysMood-lt6wh]

All a part of the growth! In all things, be good to yourself! 😀

[@naillacquertherapy]

Yes! 🙌🏻

[@bluecobaltsteph2689]

If you have your own lab (including at your house) rather than sharing a lab with a large manufacturer you’re an indie. ❤

[@naillacquertherapy]

It feels so weird to call myself that. 😂

[@aramarindetodounpoco]

Muchas felicidades por tu marca, no me había dado cuenta que no es tu fuerte describir esmaltes de uñas, siempre he considerado que de todos los canales tu eres la mejor para hacer reseñas y cuando das tu opinión eres la más sincera, saludos 😊

[@naillacquertherapy]

¡Ay muchas gracias!

[@bluecobaltsteph2689]

Hope you’re working well with your treatment team and that your bipolar is under control. Sending all the ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@bluecobaltsteph2689]

It’s fall after the time change! Most people with mood disorders do worse this time of year even if they don’t meet criteria for SAD. I know a psychiatrist who won’t decrease meds at this time of year for almost anyone.

[@michellelyman7092]

I really enjoy your videos and look forward to your content, you're great just the way you are so what is wrong with the way you look? I wish I had shiny hair like yours and your great skin and your smile and your enthusiasm...so many things you are that is good and I hope you know that and I hope you feel better soon. You, your spirit and your content shines through.

[@naillacquertherapy]

You’re so kind. Thank you 🥹💜

[@catherinevictoria6758]

Would love to see the new 2025 Essie collection.

[@naillacquertherapy]

What collection? Where is it available?

[@catherinevictoria6758]

@@naillacquertherapy it’s the Essie Be Them All collection.

[@naillacquertherapy]

I have to go find it!

[@AlwaysPolished]

May I ask what mic you use for when you're on camera? 😊

[@naillacquertherapy]

It’s this one! amzn.to/3ZK424N

[@DonnaG-y6y]

Janixa,why is it that those of us that have a passion for nail polish have seem to have psychological problems! You are too hard on yourself as we all are!

[@naillacquertherapy]

It does seem that way huh! I think we’re all looking for things to take our minds off the mental health issues and nail polish is a great way to do that.

[@cat_623]

Janixa, I wonder if it's the time of year contributing to this general malaise. I always have a hard time in November and December, with the short days and little actual sunshine. I just always know that I will feel better in January; it helps to think of it as a temporary mood issue that is not anyone's fault!

[@naillacquertherapy]

It could be!

[@psalm148.1]

Don't want to be presumptuous or crass but would doing the videos in your pajamas be such a bad thing? I mean like coordinating the pj's with the collection or maybe your top going along with the theme of whatever you're swatching. Maybe your daughter could help choose what you wear. I don't know just throwing out ideas to help alleviate pressure. Thanks for being real!🙂

[@naillacquertherapy]

I guess it wouldn’t be a bad thing. I’d film more videos, that’s for sure! 😂

[@Rachel-t1j]

You have your family to take care of & a business to run. No wonder you are feeling burnt out but you can do it. You are Janixa. How about a video of the steps you take just taking care of your cuticles/nails?

[@naillacquertherapy]

I AM JANIXAAAAAAAA!!!! I read that like if I was singing that one song from Moana. 😂😂😂

[@Rachel-t1j]

@naillacquertherapy You can do it!

[@bluecobaltsteph2689]

Is your hair naturally curly or straight?? I’m so confused!!!

[@naillacquertherapy]

It’s naturally wavy/curly.

[@bluecobaltsteph2689]

@ but you’re burned out! Don’t waste your energy straightening it it’s gorgeous curly 💜💜💜💜💜
