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! ❤️

@Cissy63, the China Glaze is such a fun color and I love the topper you used. The names on both also make me smile!! 

I've been applying two layers of cuticle oil at night to help with the dryness. It helps a little but my cuticles are still on the dry side. I may try using cuticle oil, hand cream and wrapping them in one of those overnight gloves.

[Cissy63]

@itsfi  Thanks so much 😃. You are trying what I have been doing to.  Applying hand cream and cuticle serum frequently during the day.  But with lots of hand washing it seems to defeat the purpose ☹️

[Titian06]

@itsfi @Cissy63 - Cuticle oil with hand cream over top works very well for me.  I do this multiple times a day--a minimum of morning and evening after my skincare routine--plus lunchtime if I think of it.  It's made a big difference.  I bought Glisten & Glow Hand + Nail Nutrition after receiving a sample with an order.  I'm in love!  Better than most hand moisturizers (but whatever you have will work).  I use CND SolarOil as my cuticle oil.

Absolutely gorgeous @Cissy63 !!! This was literally what I was planning on doing but changed my mind to hot pink last minute!!! Great minds! 🧠 🥰

[Cissy63]

Holy cow @jaaayp and @itsfi !   Three of us thinking of the same mani!  I’m so impressed 😃😃.  Looking forward to seeing yours too!

[itsfi]

Oh my goodness, that makes 3 of us @jaaayp. When I read @Cissy63's notes that it's China Glaze Tropic Like It's Hot, I went to look over at the bottles of polish I have sitting out that I was thinking about using tonight or later this week, and sure enough, there's CG Tropic Like It's Hot sitting right there!!! What are the odds?!!! 

[jaaayp]

We wear pink on Sundays

Did I take pictures of my nails or my cat? 😂

@jaaayp  Such a beautiful pink!!! I love that kitty photo bombed the pictures!! Does kitty wear pink on Sundays too? 

[jaaayp]

Thank you @ather !!! It's nice to wear neonish polishes sometimes vs my neutrals LOL kitties will literally kill me. Or more like the girl one would scratch and bite me and the boy one would just cry continuously until I let him free LOL 😂

[ather]

@jaaayp  Awwww funny! I use to do pink and purple soft paws on one of my cats. She loved it. She would sit in my lap and just chill. My new girlie will scratch my face off if I try! But I don’t have to put them on either now! 

[CookieGirl1]

@jaaayp helloooooo stunning!  Love me a good hot pink polish 😍.

Gorgeous pink mani! Your nails are long and healthy, so pretty 🤩 💅 @jaaayp 

[CynthieLu]

Your nails and polish are so beautiful @jaaayp the length you have is enviable. 😍 I think it's definitely a picture of both. Like it's "here's my phenomenal Mani with a cute kitty back drop." 💗🐱

[itsfi]

@jaaayp, that is such a fun shade of pink. Love your nail shape - your nails are so healthy and long. Very pretty.

[Cissy63]

@jaaayp  Such a luscious pink color!  Hello 😻

[jaaayp]

Thank you @Cissy63 ! He says hello too 🥰

[Titian06]

Lovely color, @jaaayp ! 😍  I see Popito lounging in the background. 💖🐾💖

[jaaayp]

Thank you @Titian06 I 🥰 He's always lurking in the corner!

Went with one color to start off the week - Nailtopia She's Iconic, a medium pink creme, 2 coats. I did some touch ups during the week to cover up chips and nicks. For the weekend, I applied 1 coat of Colores de Carol Too Bright To Handle, a clear base packed with black and white glitters and squares - one of my favorite toppers.

I used Canmake Nail Hardener as a base coat and Deborah Lippmann Hard Rock - Nail Strengthening Top and Base Coat for the top coat.

[ather]

@itsfi  Beautiful mani! I love that you use a topper to hide chips! Such a great idea! 

[itsfi]

@ather, thank you. Every time I do it, it reminds me to use my nail polish toppers morel 💅🏼
