    @MrsWest...no problem ma..anything to help the ladies keep looking great...lol

    @Specialk...i saw that one after i found the one I posted...lol..

    question...do ya'll think something like this is too old/grown up for a 16yr old girl?

    I don't. My daughters are younger and I do all sorts of things with their nails.

    Not at all.
    It is a form of art and allows them to express some individuality I think.

    lol....well it's no fun if I don't have anyone to share in the obsession with. I'll find them and send one your way ;)

    I agree with you. The pinks in the last set look very similar so I am not sure if there will be enough contrast but that could be just how the photo is coming across....

    Do you like sinful colors? The few that I have seem really thin and I can't get good coverage even with multiple layers. Shame since I think my Walgreens has them on sale right now

    Thanks @MrsWest :)

    @SpecialK Can't really give a good review because I only have that yellow color from them but I get good coverage from two coats. I tend to be heavy handed with painting anyways. :p

    Loves glitter, loves pink, loves red!! :x

    I do like Orly but the brush is small-I like the wider brushes, easier to get good coverage for me.

    I have this one by Orly, it's called Space Cadet. Does amazing things in the light- Both of these pics are from the same color...

    @tabatha

    Drink lots of water. This will keep your hands, cuticles, and fingernails hydrated. It may sound redundant but hydration and proper nutrition is key in skin, hair, and nail care.

    Take care of your cuticles. Applying a cuticle oil or even Almond or Olive oil provides good moisture and massaging it in can help circulation and encourage nail growth.

    Be careful when trimming or filing them. When your nails get damaged, regrowth can take weeks/months. Filing is better than actually cutting the nail because when you cut them it can create small fractures making them more prone to chipping/splitting. I hear using a glass file is best but I have not tried that.

    Is this that polish you are talking about? If so, I want it just for the bottle, lol

    @tabatha_ yes it took some trail and error to find a good magnetic polish. I like sephora's, but Sally hansen has a whole line out, so I will be trying those too.

    My taste in simping is impeccable, the people know it.
    SOTY '11 and soon to be '12.

    Kai ain't even ? with u bruh, she just ? with you, you feel me?

    nosign bruh

    these IC females today are too sophisticated and erudite to fall for the antics of these amateur simps out here

    get yo Ph.d simping degree and then maybe you'll keep their attention



    plus IC loyalty is highest in the powder room.............you be simping on other forums on the low ?

    and the ladies know it

    :(

    @taeboo

    It is my favorite for fall and wears well-a must have!

    I also love my klean color polish-metallic red gets worn a lot and of course the glitters. Good coverage in one coat usually.

    @mrswest

    girl I am serious about my polish....I shall continue to enable.. :)

    @Britt

    I tried it months ago.... definitely takes practice-my first attempts were pretty bad!

    Are you letting the base color dry completely?
  • Britt_J
    Britt_J Members Posts: 604 ✭✭✭✭

    @specialK yes, I let the base coat dry for about 15-20 mins first. When I put it on it looked like colored concrete on my nails, then the sponge stuck to it..just a mess all around.

    My friend did it using a piece of wax paper..I might try that.
