What Is Nail Pitting? | POPSUGAR Beauty

If you’ve ever taken a look at your hands or feet and found a dent in your fingernail, you might be wondering exactly what it is and how it got there. While it could be a fluke, an indentation from an injury, or the product of an at-home manicure gone wrong, if you notice multiple dented fingernails or multiple dents across different nails, it could actually be what is referred to as nail pitting.

Manuka Honey Benefits For Skin: Experts Explain
Ever since I was a little kid my mom would feed us spoonfuls of honey to boost our immune systems, and we’d use honey in homemade face masks to add a bit of glow to our skin. As I’ve gotten older (and a bit lazier), I’ve transitioned from DIY skin care to products featuring some of my favorite homeopathic and Ayurvedic ingredients, including honey. Recently, I’ve noticed that Manuka honey has gained traction in the skin-care world, particularly among New Zealand-founded brands — much like how Kora Organics noni oil comes from Australia and Tatcha rice water hails from Japan. You might recognize Manuka as the pricier honey option at…

If you went to school any time in the 2000s, you likely remember seeing hallways littered with UGG boots, PINK sweatshirts (with no less than two tank tops underneath), and the pouf hairstyle.

Hair Theory, Explained by Hairstylists
Have you ever experienced a bad hair day that completely threw you for a loop, or a good hair day that changed your entire week?

Read more about our Product Review Guidelines here. A pair of chunky, retro-inspired aviator sunglasses were at the top of my summer shopping list. My requirements were specific: they needed to have a good tortoiseshell pattern, a lighter lens that would show my eyes, and a low enough price tag to keep them from becoming a stress liability — keeping track of my Apple AirPods is hard enough. After trying on a few pairs of cheap-looking plastic versions while also passing up options I…

Fact or Fiction: Sardines Give You Healthy Skin
If you’ve spent any amount of time on TikTok lately, you’re probably familiar with the fact that tinned fish are having a moment. (Seriously, I want whoever is running the PR for tinned fish to run my entire life.) People on the app can’t get enough of anchovies, smoked oysters, and the girly-pop-crowned “most popular tinned fish out there”: sardines. For the unfamiliar, sardines are small fish that live in the ocean. They are often grilled or eaten straight out of a can, where they are typically packed in oil, water, or other various liquids like tomato juice. When eaten, the heads are typically removed, but the bones and the…
