BEAUTY TIP FOR YOUR NAILS

Obviously this is Linda typing, I don't think Rob knows very many beauty tips, but he will when he gets round to reading the blog.  Strangely enough though, this tip was given to me by my dad when I was about 12ish.

I always wanted lovely nails, and when I started High School, most of the girls had lovely nails.  I never bit mine or chewed them or anything like that, it was just that they wouldn't grow very much.  I remember being really upset about it and my dad told me, "if you want your nails to look good, just do this and it will make them grow stronger and faster.. just push back the skin at the cuticles using your thumb nail and then lastly to do your thumb, use your index finger nail" - it is something I've done habitually once a day ever since and he was absolutely right.  I have lovely long nails, they grow very quickly and I just keep on top of them looking nice, filing them whilst watching TV.

Of course I did actually ask him how he knew that fact (but many years later) and he said, because he is a chef, his nails always had to be spotlessly clean and that's what he used to do to make them cleaner, but noticed how much stronger and how much quicker they grew!!
