most popular shade is coffee color, and
many of the sets are made In that
tone. Both the braid and lace are
used for the collar and cuffs which are

Scrub your nails thoroughly every

into the roots of the nails and beneath

wiping off any superhuous grease. In a
little while you will find that your nails.
while soft and flexible, will not break
off, and this treatment also banishes
