There is nothing that i love more than when I get a fresh set of nails. The smell, the feeling of just how cool they make you feel, and the way they can make an outfit pop! I feel naked without my nails, and find them hard to live without. Although life with claws is more difficult, it is way more fabulous, and I wouldn't want it any other way.

We can't pick things up

I'm not exaggerating this one. If you see someone with nails drop a coin/card/anything flat please help them out and pick it up. Picking up dropped items is almost impossible with nails, and so please please please help us out. If helping out is not your thing though we totally understand, just don't judge us when we drop something on the floor, look at it and decide we have to walk away from it. Were not littering, we just don't want to make a fol of ourselves trying 30,000 times to get it.

Back scratches are good but please don't make us

I am one of those people who HATE scratching other peoples back, its the sound, feeling and idea of their skin on my hands and under my nails (ew) and so with that being said just because we have fake nails does not mean we want to scratch your back.

Tapping on everything

I am one of those people who love to tap their nails, on the car, desk, and phone. I try my absolute best to only do it when I am alone and working in an area with noise. But with that if I am tapping and it annoys you i'm really sorry but I actually can't control it.

We have a secret language

We know that when we see someone with an amazing set that the secrets have to be shared from, dip, gel, fills, locations, who does what the best, everything. But we also know when to keep our mouths shut (because we don't want longer lines at the nail shop).

If we have a broken nail please don't say anything

I know for a fact that when someone points out a broken nail i feel SUPER called out. It's like if someone was to point out a big zit, and there's nothing you can do to fix it. Shops close at seven p.m. or earlier SO if you break a nail after that time then you have to wait and there is nothing you can do about it until they open the next day.

There is nothing like the love someone has for their nails, and us people with the claws know that love extremely well.

There are endless things that we could say about our nails from color, shape, place, and so on.

So for all the people judging us and our nail obsession: this is for you!

This Survey Shows How Quarantine And Drinking Relate, And I Can't Say I'm Surprised

"5 o'clock somewhere" is more of a guideline now than ever.

As it stands, and my friends and I are finally 21. We're extremely excited to be able to go out to bars and "get lit" as the kids say, but due to the pandemic, all of our plans have been put on hold. We'd rather wait and go when it's safe than risk spreading the infection and hurting our loved ones. So, we've all been quarantining apart, getting on the occasional wine zoom call. This made me wonder if anyone else our age were doing the same thing.

Then, I discovered this survey: We Surveyed Millennials And Gen Z About Their Quarantine Drinking Habits — Cheers. Here are 3 things that I discovered through the survey results.

My favorite food is mac and cheese, and it always has been. All it requires is noodles and cheese — it's so simple to make. Although it's my favorite, it can also get kind of mundane because it's such a simple recipe. This, of course, has led to many people all over the world experimenting with the American staple.

Y'all, we're struggling. You don't even have to tell me, I know. What a mess we're all in, right? This year is not going how we planned and the world has turned into one giant struggle bus. I guess you could be super philosophical about everything happening for a reason, but sometimes life is just hard.

There are plenty of ways to bring yourself out of whatever rut you're in. You could go for a run, have a snack, or read a book. Or, if you're really looking for an adrenaline rush, go shopping. This is obviously not going to solve the world's problems with one swift click of the "checkout" button, but hey, it may just give you the little boost you need today.

I Wore A Butt Mask Every Day For A Month, And It's Officially Essential In My Daily Self-Love Routine Now

Thirty days later, my booty's as smooth as a baby's.

@bawdybeauty

- Blissfully unaware that butt-care beyond squats was even something I should be considering in my self-care routine, I tried one of Bawdy Beauty's butt masks for the first time a month ago.

- I've never really given my butt a second though till I took a look at improvements that could be made with the mask — if one of the hydrating, firming, detoxifying, or brightening masks in the kit I received could either smooth out cellulite or tone my skin a bit more, I wasn't going to complain.

- Each Bawdy Beauty sheet mask comes in an individually-packaged sheet, soaked with a serum I massaged into my skin after removing said sheet. The clay butt mask comes in a convenient stick format I simply draw on to my skin and leave to set for about 10 minutes before hopping into the shower.

- I set a goal of committing myself to butt-care every day for one month. Between the regular use of sheet masks, clay masks, and their CBD Butt Balm in between, I didn't have many expectations.

- I thought the whole concept may just be a gimmick, but my butt has never looked so toned in my life, and the cellulite I had is almost completely gone. I wear one every single day when I get the chance.

I'm incredibly skeptical when it comes to marketing ploys and gimmicks in the beauty world. I'll be the first cynic to try out the latest serum on the market every influencer is raving about just to negate every grandiose claim it makes.
