"French Affair" by Essie "soft lavender pink"
I've been attempting to keep nice nails. This is proving very tricky! A professional manicure will last me 2 days. An at home manicure will last about the same, however I will not have the drive to switch over, and usually the polished will be messed up during the drying so the nails were never "nice" to begin with.
The Culprit: Cleaning, washing hands, picking at the polish, breakage, having a toddler, and the original enemy: having to pee while polish is drying and usually wearing something impossible to pull up and down without mushing thumbs!
Tips to keep them nice that I won't use because I'm impulsive:
1. Wear rubber gloves while cleaning
2. Don't drink 3 cups of coffee then do nails
Tips to keep them nice that I will use:
1. When at home paint nails while not wearing pants.
2. If forgotten to remove pants... paint thumbs at a later time.
3. Just get toes done at nail salon, leave nails for at home since it's just not going to last.
-------further on the not getting them done at the salon part: they file the tops of my natural nails and i do not wish that if not wearing polish i look like i've been wrestling with a sand paper alligator.
