Nail polish problem?
I have this nail polish I like I bought from the store and it keeps coming off so everyday I have to re-do it then it like gets all bumpy. Then it gets all over my skin which annoys the heck outta me because I gotta wash it off with nail polish remover. Any ideas?
I'm a guy and just recently starting painting my nails. I really like it, but honestly have no clue what I am doing...?
I don't know what I am supposed to buy, or how to even properly do it. Currently, I've just used Wet 'n Wild Clear Nail Protector as my bottom and top coat, and NYC Shine In A Minute - East Village as the color. If you could help a confused 18 year old who feels weird for asking about this, it would be wonderful.
Is nail polish bad for nails?
No. Nail polish is good for your nails, actually. Contrary to popular belief, nails don’t need to “breathe”—they’re like your hair, dead. Yes, nail polish will discolour your nails, but again, just like hair, just because your nails are coloured does not mean they’re not healthy. Regular, quality nail polish is not bad for your nails, no matter how much or often you wear it.Nail polish is good for your nails, why? Firstly, it adds the extra layers that keeps your nails strong and less prone to breaks and chipping. I’ve been chipping my nails a lot since working in retail (using hands a lot) and working in food and beverages (getting my hands wet a lot). Ever since I started getting into nail polish, my nails have never been as long as they are now for a loooong time. It is perfect for anyone with thin, brittle nails.Secondly, it traps the good oils in your nail while keeping water out. Water is horrible for your cuticles. It dries them out especially if you’re working with water a lot like I do in the cafe. This is why you never shower with naked nails. WEAR POLISH TO KEEP AS MUCH WATER OUT AS POSSIBLE. Inevitably, water will still seep in, and now we’re back to the first point I made. Water may soften your nails and make it prone to breakage, but if you’re wearing nail polish, you got those extra layers of protection you need.The things that do damage your nails?Water (externally)The wrong nail file typeBuffing your nails (depending. I avoid buffing because my nails are thin enough already, I don’t need to shed anymore layers than I have to)Wearing your nails naked (basically not wearing nail polish), particularly when your handling waterNot taking care of your hands, and therefore your nails

Do cats get emotionally attached to their owners like dogs?
“Like dogs”? No. They get attached to their owners like cats. They’re fundamentally different creatures. But that doesn’t mean they’re not attached. Cats are socially connected to their environment. It’s why most of them do not enjoy going for long walks on a leash, being transported in the car. It’s why, when you change something in your house substantially, they freak the fuck out. They’re evolutionary adapted to be skittish because they’re typically alone in nature (well, their great-great-great-[bazillion greats]-grandcats were).They also haven’t been selected as specifically as dogs have for traits. Dogs have been selectively bred for thousands of years for a specific type of job: guarding, shepherding, ratting, protecting children, guarding Buddhist temples, confirming to the whole world that France really is gay. Cats, only recently, have undergone significant selective breeding and that’s mostly for shows —which I find appalling. But whatever. Cats had one job on the farm: stop trolls from cutting through the wall and killing children. Wait. I messed that up. Their job is to kill rodents that eat the grain.They retain that wildness because that wildness has been of service to humans. But they are mammals and they are exceptionally intelligent, potentially affectionate creatures (and manipulative little fuckers to boot). Cats have varied personalities. They do become attached to people. Rick and I travel a lot, when we get home, our dominant female —Leela— goes nuts (mostly for Rick, but whatever; she’s his cat). They are attached. Just don’t fuck with their environment.River is a murder-beast.Leela has potential, but she mostly just likes people.We endured River’s throw-back, 80’s bangle phase.Milo is just a lazy shit who wants to lounge around all day soaking up the sun on the Catio.River thinks she can kill brown bears.Leela isn’t having any of her shit.Though sometimes she tolerates her, as long as it’s on a pile of freshly laundered, warm towels.Milo gnaws on his kitty.River doesn’t mind lounging around on the Kitty Savannah.They all rather like climbing the kitty shelves on the walls.
