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! ❤️

Me neither @ather! @caitbird picked out some fun ones!

@itsfi  @caitbird  I agree these are so fun! I might be dating myself but the ones I remember weren’t that fun! Also why have I not gotten into press on nails yet??? I feel cheated.

@Titian06 very cool

[Titian06]

Thanks, @CorgiMommy ! 💜💜💜

@Titian06, marvelous work on the stamping! The flowers on both your index finger nails are so cute! Are the stamping plates also from Maniology?

[Titian06]

Thanks, @itsfi !  Yes, the plates are Maniology.  That's what happens when I type on my phone. 😄  I can't see the big picture so I miss things.  Oh, well.  I ended up making a purchase during their 4th of July sale.  All of the stamping products are new and I just had to use! 💖💖💖

@Titian06 your stamping turned out great!  I'd still love to get into stamping but I never seem to have the time or patience for it.  It's so cool to see how good you've gotten at doing it 🙂

[Titian06]

Thanks, @CookieGirl1 !  That means so much to me!  It does take time and patience.  Time isn't a problem, but my patience is. 😄

@Titian06  These turned out beautiful! 

[Titian06]

Thanks, @ather ! 💜💜💜

[caitbird]

@Titian06  wow, I love this! The silvery lavender holo polish, the purple-gray flower stamps - so pretty!

[Titian06]

Thanks, @caitbird ! 💜💜💜  I love how this one turned out! 🙂

[peculiarzmakeup]

[Titian06]

Thanks, @peculiarzmakeup ! 💜💜💜  You can never go wrong with purple! 😄

Started off the week with all of my nails being one shade - Chanel 131 Cavalier Seul, a slightly muted, sage green creme, that was part of Chanel's 2023 summer collection. My ring fingernail ended up snagging on my sweater unexpectedly and then tearing, mid-week, followed by my middle fingernail splitting/breaking the next day 😑  I had planned on filing both nails and repainting them with the Chanel, but my eye caught sight of the Cameo Colours Lacquers Feed Me!, a green and silver base filled with metallic and shimmery flakies of various sizes and shades. TheCameo Colours nail polish was part of a Polish Pick Up offering in September 2020.  @caitbird, thank you for the reminder to post this nail set. 

Top and base coat were Deborah Lippmann Hard Rock - Nail Strengthening Top and Base Coat.

@itsfi  Wow! These colours are perfect together! I love the sage green!! It’s so pretty! 😍 too bad it snagged and broke 2 nails. Your nails are getting so long!!!! 

[itsfi]

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!
