.Nail Polish.

[via]
I admit it. I have got to be the World's hardest person ever on their nails.
My hands are dainty and small, and as my grandmother would say "Perfectly girlish", but the poor suckers get beat up to no avail. And it shows on my nails.
I moisturize. I groom. I even change up my polish every week, but the second I do something....BAM. 
A nail chips. A nail cracks. A nail gets broken.
And don't get me wrong, this post sounds like I am some girly-girl all worried about her nails.....but I'm not. Rest assured. I just wish I had a solution to this problem because, frankly, it sucks. There is nothing I hate more than doing my nails over-and-over again.
Any suggestions?
And in the meantime, while I hate just re-pinning pinterest pictures [it feels lazy], check out all these cool nail combo's popping up for spring.
I am in awe. Now does anyone want to come over and paint them for me?

  2. I've heard the new gel paint it AMAZING! I don't paint mine because I can't stand the chipped look, but I may have to try this next time I go in.

    1. I havent' heard of this new gel paint yet.....although Canada always seems to get things months after they debut in the US. sigh.....one of the most frustrating things to a girl who likes to try everything the second it gets released.
      Let me know how it works. You have me very curious.

  3. OMG! I love everything ESSIE!!! I cannot wait for tomorrow so I can get to business on changing up my colour. I am pretty rough on my poor nails too but I have started with the Essie base coat, colour x 2 and then a fast drying top coat. I get an extra couple of days out of my colour. I dont imagine that you need to spend crazy amounts on each step but I think success comes from frequent maintenance and both a base and top coat.

    Ha! Sounds like I know what I am talking about but you should see my raggedy nails!!!

    1. Tanya, you absolutely do sound like a nail expert! 4 coats of paint you crazy lady! haha, I can't sit through 1 before I get bored and am off scratching them up! But yes, Essie is my fav too and I may have to try out that base and top coat. I have ridiculous amounts of colors though. It's kinda becoming an issue.....
