Trim and file your nails.   Before you begin to paint your nails, it's important that you create the desired shape of your nails. Trimming them to the length that you want them and smoothing out the edges with a nail file will help you achieve a prettier, polished look, and will prevent your nails from chipping as quickly. When you file your nails, make sure to move the nail file in one direction. You don't want to saw your nails back and forth, as this can create jagged edges and lead to splitting, breaking, and pealing. Focus on moving the file from left to right, gently swiping the edge of your nail as you go across it.

Not only will the colors be all muddled together, but a precise technique is rendered way more complicated — the bristles are ...

As far as denim goes, there are pretty much two camps of thought. Either you constantly search the web for the most recent drop of your favorite brand's new pairs, or you're a die-hard vintage buyer who won't even look at a new pair. If you fall into the latter category, what we're about to say next will go against your entire outlook toward denim shopping, but we promise it's worth the disruption. Many have tried before to re-create the way vintage jeans fit, their thick material, and so many other seemingly impossible-to-capture details. What sets the brand B Sides apart from the rest is its relentless search for "stretch that doesn't look like stretch" which led them to a "family-owned mill in Georgia, founded in 1845, that carried a thick, slubby indigo twill with stretch—a decades-old material kept in production solely for manufacturers of farm gear."  Additionally, the brand is retailing its creations at affordable ...
