Pinner says... I loveee gelish. Shellac and Gel nails are in at salons right now but are sooo expnesive. You can buy a Gelish started nail kit (at Sally's beauty supply or online) and you can do it yourself at home. Super easy and way more cost effective. Lasts for up to 2 weeks, keeps it shine, thicker than regular nail polish, doesn't chip easily. Love it love it love it.
Good to know. "One of my most important food shopping tips ever--those annoying stickers on fruits and veggies tell you A LOT! 4 numbers mean they were conventionally grown, 5 numbers starting with number 8 means they are genetically modified (GMO), and 5 numbers starting with 9 means they were organically grown (no pesticides or nasty GMOs)"

MOLD-FREE BERRIES!! When you get your berries home, prepare a mixture of one part vinegar (white or apple cider probably work best) and ten parts water. Dump the berries into the mixture and swirl around. Drain, rinse if you want (though the mixture is so diluted I find you can't taste the vinegar,) and pop in the fridge. The vinegar kills any mold spores and other bacteria that might be on the surface of the fruit.
