11 Genius Ways to Make Your Manicure Last Longer

Seriously, you've spent $$ and time on your nails, why use it to open a soda can? That's manicure suicide. Use a spoon instead or ask someone to do it for you (nicely, of course). When pressing things like elevator buttons, use your knuckles if possible. Save your scratching for your furry babies' head and not things like stubborn labels. Also, take those nails away out of your mouth — as your mother would say, "it's not food so don't bite it."
