“Dear PoPville,
Any intel on when this is opening? I saw them painting the front of the building today. Could be imminent?”
Anyone happen to know?
Varnish Lane’s website says:
“At Varnish Lane, all of our nail care services are waterless. So what does that mean?!
Your hands and feet are not soaked in water. Instead, they are cleansed with our all natural oil cleanser and a warm towel wrap to clean and soften the skin.
There are several significant reasons for our waterless services. Most importantly, water is the main source of infection when getting your nails done. By eliminating the water we have created a safe service without risk of infection. When soaked in water your nails swell and expand which causes the polish to chip prematurely after your nails shrink back to normal size hours after your service.
Soaking in water also causes your skin to become waterlogged which prevents it from absorbing any moisturizing products. In our waterless service, your skin will be renewed from all of the benefits from our 100% natural oils and butters.
Did you know that a typical pedicure uses up to 15 gallons of water per service? That is a lot of wasted water! Varnish Lane has created amazing services that are environmentally friendly by cutting down on waste and high water consumption.”

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
