25. Get perfect cuticles
Got dry, chapped cuticles? Moisturize them with a little bit of lip balm — any type will work, but balm that’s petroleum jelly-based (look for stuff that’s in a pot rather than stick, and isn’t completely opaque) does the best job. Unlike with cuticle cream, which you maybe remember to use if you’re actually doing your nails, it’s easy to get in the habit of rubbing a little lip balm around your nails any time you’re moisturizing your lips. Extra tip: You can also apply lip balm to your cuticles pre-manicure to keep excess nail polish from sticking to them.
