How I take care of my nails

Hi everyone! There's no *huge* secret for how I grow out my nails, I wish there was so I could share with you all. But the truth is...I get it from ma momma. I do however, take good care of them so that they don't break off. I will share those tips because I <3 you all.:)

1-ALWAYS wear rubber gloves when you're doing dishes. Soap can be harsh and soften them leading to brittle cracked nails which we DO NOT WANT.
DISCLAIMER: I know some of you use dishwashers, but those of us who have crappy dishwashers that make dishes come out dirtier than they went in, we have to resort to this.

2- Eat plenty of fruits, veggies, protein, and keep hydrated. I notice that when I don't eat as well my nails aren't as strong and resistant to breakage. 

3-Never let your nails go bare. Always keep them either painted or with just clear polish. Polish protects them from softening up in the shower and hand washing.

4- Keep hands moisturized. Will keep cuticles from peeling and looking funky. Cause nothing is worse than cute nails but busted hands.

5- NO FIGHTING. We all know the first thing that magically breaks is a nail. Shoo.

6-No clawing your enemies eyes out. You could lose a nail in there.

7- Careful when closing your car door; don't slam your hand. Not only does it hurt, but most importantly it can break more than one nail.

And last but not least!

8- NO GOING TO PRISON. I'm assuming they chop them right off as soon as they throw you in.

 I know there aren't a lot of tips and I don't have a magic potion, but shoo, (LOOK AT THESE PUPPIES *blinds you*) they work

Hope these were helpful (and a little humorous) and thanks for reading!<3

Love,

Tip for dried out mascara

My two fav mascaras ( PF Organic Wear and Sephora Lash Plumper) tend to dry out way too soon even when there's still lots of product left. What I do is I submerge the tube in a mug with warm water for 5-6 minutes everyday (it goes back to how it was before once it cools). It melts the product just enough without affecting it's performance. This also works with clumpy mascaras. Have any spiffy beauty tips to share? Hope you found this tip helpful! <3

Love,

Sonia
