with a few strokes of colored polish. Pick your favorite polish color and apply it smoothly to the surface of the nail. Don't use a lot of brushing motions to apply the product; instead, coax the polish to the center, right, and left of the nail for a smooth appearance. Let the first coat of polish dry completely before adding a second. Check the instructions on the bottle to see how long the polish takes to dry. For a more long-lasting manicure, apply a base coat on your nails before adding any colored polish. Additionally, consider applying a top coat over the colorful lacquer to add an extra layer of protection. Treat yourself to a fun manicure where you can get longer, fake nails. Choose an acrylic manicure if you'd prefer a powder-base for your nail. If you'd prefer a harder, more long-lasting manicure, opt for a gel procedure instead. If you'd prefer a mixture of gel and regular nail polish, choose a shellac manicure at the salon. All of these procedures take significantly longer than a normal manicure, and require a UV light to dry the product. These manicures are especially great if you're planning for a special occasion, like a wedding or dance. Paint your nails in a rosy pink shade, or a nude tone that matches the natural color of your nails. Finish off the look by adding a rounded outline of white polish around the tip of the nail. If you'd like your nails to look especially sleek, go to a salon to get them done. The reverse French manicure is also a great option for making your nails look beautiful. Instead of painting an outline on the nail tip, the outline goes along the base of your nail. Opt for a beautiful, low-maintenance manicure by requesting a dip powder manicure at your next salon visit. Unlike gel and acrylic manicures, you don't need to rest dipped nails beneath a UV light. Dip powder nails are a lot easier to remove than regular nails.

Set your oven to 425F (218C). While it heats up, make the most of your time by preparing the ingredients for the recipe. Preheating usually takes about 15 minutes, though this may vary depending on your oven. Add the salt, pepper, and sugar to a small mixing bowl. Use a utensil or your clean, dry hands to thoroughly mix these seasonings. Brush your rimmed baking sheet with 1 tbsp (15 ml) of olive oil using a pastry brush. If you don't have a pastry brush, take a small, clean piece of paper towel and use it to spread the oil over the bottom of the baking sheet. Alternatively, you can use a cooking spray to coat the sheet with oil. Be sure you are thorough. Missed spots could result in your cabbage sticking to the bottom. Place the wedged cabbage onto the baking sheet in a single layer. Use your pastry brush to cover the cabbage with the 2 tbsp (30 ml) of olive oil remaining. Sprinkle the wedges with your mixed seasonings. Insert your cabbage into the oven. Roast the cabbage in the oven until it is tender and begins to turn gold around the edges. This should take between 25 and 35 minutes. Check tenderness by gently prodding the cabbage with a utensil, like a wooden spoon or fork. Remove your cabbage from the oven. While it's still hot, drizzle balsamic vinegar over it, if desired. Add seasonings, like salt and pepper, to individual preference, and enjoy your roasted cabbage. Always use proper safety implements, like oven mitts and potholders, when handling hot items, like pans removed fresh from the oven.
