How to stop your nails from breaking

Today as I logged onto facebook, the first thing I saw was a status about how annoying it is to try to grow your nails out for weeks, only to have them break off after a certain point. I thought to myself "yeah, that's pretty annoying" and I'm guessing the other 15 women that liked the status felt the same way. I decided to do some research to find out how to stop this problem. So far this is what I came up with........

1. Do not bite, peel off old nail polish, or pick at your nails. This causes them to be weak and brittle.

2. Wear gloves when using household cleaning products. Cleaning products contain harsh chemicals that can damage your nails.

3. Do not use nail polish remover more than once a week. Make sure the remover you are using is acetone-free because acetone dries out your nails causing them to become brittle and break off.

4. Use a moisturizing lotion after washing your hands. This strengthens your nails.

5. Always use a nail strengthener or clear nail polish, it helps seal your nails stopping it from breaking

6. Lastly, maintain a healthy diet (you can also take vitamin A and B6 supplements to speed up nail growth)

I hope this helps.. if not.. there's always acrylics but I'm not a big fan of them.

Outfit of the Day

Victoria's Secret: Beauty Rush

Recently I stopped by Victoria's Secret and purchased lipsticks in colors Poppysicle and Clementini. I have to say I really LOVE the color of poppysicle. It's pigmented and has a bit of a sheen to it, also the bright red color is perfect to wear in the day time. I wasn't too happy about Clementini the lipstick looks really matte when it's on, I really do not recommend this color.

Nude Nail polish

Recently I went to forever21 and purchased a nail polish by Love & Beauty. I was kind of skeptical about it because the color says light pink but it definitely looks nude. Also I never heard of the brand and I wasn't sure if it would end up chipping off after 2hrs of wear. Anyway, I tried it and I really can't complain! For $2.80 I would get more colors. So if your looking for a really cheap but really good nail polish, you should go get this color!
