Starlake666 Posted April 5, 2005 #51 Share Posted April 5, 2005 Add my husband to the list who LOVE red nail polish on my fingers and toes. He also LOVES red lipstick, but that look horrible on me so no luck there! I keep my nails pretty short, mostly for practical reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nliedel Posted April 5, 2005 #52 Share Posted April 5, 2005 I am considering going back to acrylics but I am VERY fussy about my acrylics. No one can know by looking at them that they are fake. They should be fairly short and look natural. I have to do them if I want any length at all but mostly because my nervous habit is to pick at my cuticles. I do not do that when I wear acrylics.

Janene1 Posted April 10, 2005 #53 Share Posted April 10, 2005 ;) I LOVE getting my American Manicure, it's a really natural version of the french manicure. Everyone think my nails are natural unless I mention it, then they are surprised. I get a shorter sport length and my manicure lasts for up to 3 week and by then I'm overdo for a fill. I'm an artist and have to do consultations for interior designers and business owners, green or blue paint stained in my cuticles just won't do for this, and I don't like color on my nails. The American looks fresh and natural and the paints wash off my hand in a snap. The American is applied just like the french but uses more natural lighter colors with a top coat that mellows it all out. No glowing white finger tips just natural looking nails.

joelmarj Posted April 11, 2005 #54 Share Posted April 11, 2005 Just got my spring-fling manicure/pedicure this weekend. It's finally warm enough here that I broke out the sandals so I had to have my toes looking proper. Went for the OPI - Kennebunk port Red for the toes and OPI Bubble Bath for the fingers. I have my own nails and they are just barely above the finger tip line. I also have very naturally whites on the top of my nails, so when I get a pale pink like bubble gum it really just look natural, clean and fresh. Also doesn't show the chips as easily. As for the toes, I love a bold red. What I do after about two days is I put another coat of Sally Hansen Teflon Top Coat on. That seals the color really well and I usually get a good two weeks between pedicures. Manicures are still weekly though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
