Nail Decals: Breaking Bad Review

The other week I bought these nail decals off ShopJeen for ten dollars and I was so excited to use them!  Here's how they came out.
The directions were super clear, basically paint your nails, cut out the pictures, place them in water, and then place them on your nail, and pat dry.  Once dry use a clear coat of nail polish to make them stay.
If these were as easy to use as the directions they would have come out a lot better.  These took me quite a long time to do.  The little pictures are basically temporary tattoos and they rip extremely easy and stick together, along to everything else.  They're hard to center because they move around a lot.  You have to be extremely carefully and patient while working with these things.  
They look super awesome, but they don't last.  Hours later, when I thought they were dry, which they were, I washed my hands in hot water and they started breaking and melting off my nails.  Needless to say don't count on wearing these for a while.
My Review:
Difficulty: 3/10 ( 1 being very difficult, 10 being easy.)
Cost: 2/10 (1 being expensive, 10 being inexpensive.)
Long-wear: 1/10 (1 being not long, 10 being sturdy.)

Breaking Bad: Homemade Rock Candy Recipe

Homemade Rock Candy, you will need: 1/2 cup water 3/4 cup light corn syrup 2 cups granulated sugar 2 teaspoons flavoring extract blue gel food coloring candy thermometer Instructions: Line sheet pan with foil, and spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray/spray butter. In a saucepan combine the water, corn syrup, and granulated sugar. Place the pan over medium-high heat, and stir until the sugar dissolves.  Bring the mixture to a boil, then stop stirring.  Insert a candy thermometer. Continue to cook the candy without stirring until it reads 285°F on the thermometer. Do not overcook it, or it will start to take on a caramel color. Once at 285°F, take the pan off the heat and let it sit for a few moments, until bubbles stop breaking on the surface. Add the flavoring, I used raspberry extract and food coloring, I used Neon blue by McCormick, and stir everything together. Pour the candy onto the prepared baking sheet; tilt the sheet pan back and fo...

"The Rainbow Comes ad Goes" by Anderson Cooper and Gloria Vanderbilt I started reading this book while in line to meet Anderson Cooper at a book signing in Madison, Connecticut.  This was truly an excellent and interesting read.  Gloria Vanderbilt had such an insane and thrilling life, and Anderson Cooper was perfect at interviewing his mother.  I definitely recommend this book to anyone, whether a fan of Anderson Cooper and Gloria Vanderbilt, or just someone interested in pop culture and biographies.  This was a fast read.     "The Starboard Sea" by Amber Dermont I bought this book because it was on sale and it was inexpensive.  However, I ended up loving it, and I'm so happy it was on sale that day in Barnes and Noble, for if it wasn't, I probably would have never read it or picked it up.   This book is about the lives of very wealthy teenagers at boarding school, but the main character, Jason, is spilling the secrets on ...

Menopause Risk Assessment, Saving Ovaries Can Better Women’s Health

  Menopause Risk Assessment, Saving Ovaries Can Better Women’s Health As organs start to fail, other health complexities come with it.   The female reproductive system is no stranger to this phenomenon.   “The primary problem of the gaining population is the serious detriments caused by the aging of various organs and the decline of their functions” (Zhang et al., 2019).   Ovaries are one of these organs that women, and the public, accept will fail on them one day, most likely when they still have decades of life ahead of them.   Organ aging is highly associated with a variety of diseases, and menopause is a cause of this.   “The decline of ovarian function and the arrival of menopause, which then lead to multiple organ dysfunction, such as heart disease, osteoporosis, cancer, obesity, senile dementia, and so on…the risk index is much higher than that of men of the same age” (Zhang et al., 2019).   Once one organ starts to go (the ovaries) other orga...
