How many of you absolutely hate the feeling of dry chap lips? I know I do. And when you continue to apply chapstick or lip balm but only feel them becoming more chapped, you might be wondering, why isn't this helping? Well, it could be that you're using the wrong products with ingredients that are making your lips drier or more irritated, and therefore more addicted to applying it because the Chapstick isn't truly hydrating your lips. So I wanted to help you understand why the skin on your lips is different than anywhere else on the body, why you feel like you're always applying lip balm or chapstick but not experiencing their benefits, and I'll share my favorite lip care products and tips. Skin Cells and Melanocytes Okay, so first let's break down the anatomy of lip skin and why it's different.

Have you ever felt that sudden sharp spike of anxiety when you look down at your hands or feet and notice a faint chalky white streak creeping across your nail? Or perhaps you are dealing with that deeply frustrating cosmetic annoyance where your nails become so brittle and frail they seem to shatter the moment they finally start looking pretty?

Today's article Glowhush is going to be sharing with you her personal nail care routine on how she keeps her nails so clean and beautiful looking Nail Prep Hey it's Julie. Now let's jump right on into the video. The first step in my nail care routine is to remove any residual polish I have on my nails. In this case, I have about a week-old layer of base coat just on my left hand. You know how it is—polish on the dominant hand just seems to disappear, doesn't it? Next, I will file my nails into shape. As you can see, I had a break on my middle fingernail, so I'm gonna have to file the other nails down so that they match. I like to just use a disposable nail file. These are my favorites from Maxus. You get a really big pack for not that expensive, and they just have the perfect grit. As you guys know, I like to file my nails into a square shape, so I just do that. Filing Make sure you run your file underneath your nail to get rid of any of that extra nail that might ...

If you watch my channel, you know I am not a professional and I've just been doing my nails pretty much since I was like 11–12, and I'm 21 now, so I've been doing this for almost 10 years. I honestly just do it for fun, and you guys started to see my nail looks and you guys asked for a video, and then the video blew up and now we're here.

I made this video to kind of explain that, to give you guys a little bit of knowledge about cuticles. I know the majority of people that watch my nail videos are also doing their nails at home, so I ...
