    Does Shaving Make Hair Grow Thicker?

    I’ve always shaved. It’s my fave hair removal method. Waxing and epilatories are painful as hell, and I don’t do pain.

    How Does Nail Cuticle Remover Work?

    I never remove cuticles. I know they “ruin” an otherwise perfectly polished manicure, BUT, those cuticles are there for a reason. They prevent bacteria and other nasty stuff from entering our nails. Kind of a good reason to keep them there, don’t you agree? Maybe not. Doesn’t matter. I’m not gonna jump on my soapbox […]
