Show Me Your Nails 2.0

[Tamara76]

Due to some technical glitches with the original Show Me Your Nails Thread, I am starting a new thread with @vegchililover78's blessing (She says "hello," by the way!).

Please share your nail looks, nail art and manicures!

...And don't forget to check out @Beadshopgirl's Nail Stamping Thread for stamping inspiration! ❤️

Awwww, thank you @ather! The sage green is really pretty; I'm glad I decided to get it when I did; I hemmed and hawwed over it for a bit.

I've been trying to be good about keeping my nails on the longer side. So far, even when they are short, they're on the longer-side of short (all have a noticeable free edge) if that makes sense. That makes me happy. 😊

[ather]

@itsfi  Yay!!! That’s amazing!! I love that you are able to have a longer free edge!!! 

[itsfi]

Awww, thank you @ather! I've been wanting to do more French tip style mani's and for me, having a longer free edge comes in handy when I try to free style the tips; it actually even comes in handy when I use nail tape for the  tips. This is reminding me that I should apply some cuticle oil so off I go!

Beautiful Mani, I love that shade of green, so stunning 💅 @itsfi 

[itsfi]

@peculiarzmakeup, thank you. I love how well the greens go together! 💚 

[CorgiMommy]

@itsfii love sage green polish 

[itsfi]

Agree @CorgiMommy; it's a color for all seasons! 💚

[caitbird]

@itsfi  beautiful mani! I love both of those green polishes - the Chanel especially, it's just the perfect shade of sage green. Sorry about your nails breaking - that's always frustrating (I can definitely relate).

[itsfi]

Thank you @caitbird. Chanel reformulated their nail lacquers and when they did (and in a few collections that followed), they introduced some new shades that were really hard to resist ... and clearly, I did not resist (or did a very poor job at it 😂) when this green came out. I don't have many green polishes in my nail collection but this is definitely one of my favorites. 

Ohhhh, the nail breakage. I know that you commiserate and I am thankful for you and others for understanding. I don't know about you, but my nail breakage seems to follow a pattern, or at least when it starts happening - it's typically either the middle or ring fingernail. Most of the time, whichever fingernail is first to go down, it does so on my left hand and then my right hand follows suit (with the corresponding fingernail). Then, it's usually the other of the middle and ring fingernail. Left hand and more times than not, same with the right. Then, it gets mixed around, between the thumb going down next or the pinky. My index finger nail is usually last and that's typically my longest nail ... but now that I'm thinking about it, it may only be the longest because all the others have broken off by that point. 🤔 😂🤣😂🤣  My nails are creatures of habit when it comes to their breakage. Ha!

[caitbird]

@itsfi  I haven't really payed attention enough to know whether my nails follow a pattern when they break. This most recent time, it was both of my middle finger nails that broke in quick succession (like, the same day). Not sure if that is indicative of a pattern though.

Both of these colors are gorgeous, @itsfi ! 💚💚💚

[itsfi]

Thank you @Titian06. I've found some beautiful shades through Polish Pickup over the years - always something unique waiting to be discovered. 😁 Chanel came out with some great new shades when they launched their reformulated polish and with their different seasonal collections immediately following that.
