My Nails

Oh sigh, I took my acrylics off, here are a few before and after pics. You really can't tell a huge difference, well maybe in the length but otherwise? The pictures don't tell the whole story. I don't have regular nails like other people, mine are super thin and always have been. If I want to keep natural nails I have to layer 5 or more coats of polish and they still end up bending and breaking and peeling and just generally hurt.  

Which is why I always go the fake nail route. But it's been a while since I went and had them done, as I can usually fill them myself. So when I had one pop off recently I decided screw it I'm taking them off and trying to grow them out on my own. I'm thinking that I have a better diet now so maybe they will grow in healthier? Ok doubtful but I'm gonna try. So anyway here are my most recent polish jobs for your entertainment/ motivation/ yeah something to look at lol. 

I should really try taking pictures in better light now that I look at them :( oh well enjoy anyway! 


Dots as a French. Super easy and was cute. 




Glitter alone, hated it, added a pink jelly layer, needed more, added another layer of glitter yay! Ok I liked this, but it was a pain to take off. 





Something different. Used a few yellow hex glitters and this didn't last but a few days, not sure why but the polish peeled off my nails, I don't think I had them roughed up enough after taking my fake nails off. 


Dots, I like dots they are easy and cute and not enough women try them. ;)
