hey,Hey guys, I've been looking at this thread since it started and I have a question, how do you guys keep your nails up to speed with your clothes? Sometimes I will wear an 'out there' colour and love but by tomorrow I have to wear something else and the nails look out of place.
I don't have all the time in the world to paint and repaint so I usuallye end up sticking to boring nude pinks and classic bold or darker cherry red ...help! What are your go to polishes that are in your regular rotation?
i just wear what i like when i like
i dont see the need to match clothes with your nails. plus if you go for colours that are on "trend" then if doesnt matter if they dont go with your clothes.
just go wild with your nails!!! thats whats so great about nail polish.0 -

I actually tend to wear a lot of muted colours clothing wise, so it's fine for me to have colourful nails. Today my nails are mint green but my clothes are just black and cream so my nails add some colour.
I do change my nail colour about 3 times a week though, and if I'm doing something special and aren't too sure what I'll be wearing but need to paint my nails in advance, I do have a few staples. These are :
^ Rimmel - Ruby Me. (I think a red nail goes with everything, maybe I'm wrong!)
^ Barry M in Grey and in Mushroom.
Probably a few others, but I can't think of 'em off the top of my head! Overall though, I don't mind a clashing nail!0 -

I don't have any "go to" polishes exactly - I just paint my nails with whatever I'm in the mood for and change it either when I'm sick of it or it starts to look chippy If you don't have the time to do all nails, or you need to stick to neutrals for work, you could use a nude shade all over, then a different colour/glitter/arty accent nail. Or, an accent thumb nail. Or, a matt topcoat one day, or a crackle topcoat, or a glitter topcoat, or french tips in a contrasting colour. You don't have to paint all 10 nails every day to have a week of different looks! E.G. If you have red nails on Monday, add a french tip on Tuesday. Make it matte on Wednesday, add an accent nail on Thursday, a shatter or glitter topcoat on Friday. <-- a 5-day week of nails without removing polish!
Well I'm obviously not obsessed with this topic at all.... 0 -

In the last few weeks I've noticed the nails on my index fingers, and occasionally my middle fingers, splitting and breaking really easily. My diet is quite good and I take a fish oil supplement, so I'm inclined to blame this on day-to-day wear. I'm always at the computer so excessive typing probably plays a part!
Can anyone recommend a strengthening nail polish/treatment I could use? For the past week I've just been using clear nail varnish in the hopes that it would provide some kind of protection, but to no avail

Andrea plasmaspeedo on youtube recommends taking Bioin as a supplement for less flaky chippy nails. My own experoence i've never had great nails but I'm taking folic acid now and I must say my nails are stronger and peel and flake less!0 -
