but I'm somehow just learning about "sticky cuticles"?

how they kinda seamlessly, almost, meld onto your nail

and how that;'s not how they're supposed to be?

so I thought all my life that because all my nails didn't do that, I didn't give a shit about making my nails look nice

but now I'm trying so I'm looking for care tips

the lady who started holo taco does streams and stuff and I saw one posted on youtube about some care stuff, like getting a nice cuticle pusher and one of those glass nail files instead of a emery board one

so I have those saved to my amazon cart atm. I also got some sally hanson instant cuticle remover that she used in the "lesson"

what else should I do?

one of my nails/cuticles is always gonna be a bit fucked up no matter one because I cut off my thumb when I was two (it was reattached np)

but the scar remains 33 years later lol

the sticky cuticles is an eczema trait!

it is?

but I can't recommend the glass files enough they are wonderful

yep!

mine are about 50/50

they're IMPOSSIBLE to find around me but I haven't checked Ulta or Sally's yet. I'll probably just order them because I found a three pack on amazon

on my hands anyway. my feet, almost all of them are

yeah i order them online

same on my hands, about 50/50. Never checked my toes lol but I know a couple are for sure

neat huh?

Very!

You should soak your nails before using a cuticle pusher, so its easier to remove.

there are so many how to's on YouTube that are very helpful. If i can find some, I'll post links

How To: Natural Nail Manicure

oooh thank you! <3

got my glass/crystal files today and omgggggggggggggggggg you were right komikbookgeek

they're sooooo nice

I need to run to Sally's later for a cuticle pusher still though

and I'm using lotion more often to make sure my cuticles stay soft (also for the eczema)

roomie ( tinymuffin84 ) bought me some Black Cherry Merlot hand cream that smells AMAZING

I also got a vortex mixer and mixed my polishes up and they look better than everrrrr

and now I have the perfect color for tomorrows wedding

yay that's great!

I also like that you can disinfect the files to use it between different people
