Nails Under a Microscope (what's in my nail polish?!?) - Summary

Summary

In this YouTube video, Christine, aka Pristine 920, conducts a fun science experiment using three different microscopes to examine her nails and nail polish up close. She starts by showing off the microscopes she purchased on Amazon, ranging from a beginner level to a more advanced model. She then proceeds to examine her nails, observing the different layers and textures, and even peels off a nail polish sample to investigate further.

Christine also looks at nail polish samples under the microscope, observing the different shapes and colors of the glitters and flakes. She notes that iridescent glitters are scientifically different from hollow glitters, and pokes fun at makeup companies that might mislabel their products.

Throughout the video, Christine injects humor and personality, making the experiment entertaining and engaging. She concludes by reflecting on what she learned from the experiment and invites viewers to subscribe for more nerdy content.
