My Nail Beds Suck...No More




I've been painting my nails more often these days.
And for anyone that actually "knows" me,
the fact that I even have ten anythings to paint is something blog-worthy in and of itself.

{Years of competitive sports induced anxiety led me to become an all-around biter, picker, chewer, and peeler}


However,
pre-natals, hormones, and sheer willpower have finally triumphed.
It would appear that I have completely clawed my way back into friendships with Essie, Deborah, and Nicole once and for all.

Not to mention,
my skills with the brush aren't too shabby.
Thank you Korean genes.




P.S.
Anyone have a polish must-have that I should know about?


xoxo

I love the Sally Hansen Insta-Dry line. The color goes on easily and smoothly and drys quickly. A must for me!

Love the minted nails! :) Bahaha. Korean genes!

Sam said...

I'm wearing Minted right now too! Other colors I love are bright blue, coral, dark red, basically anything, and of course glitters.

I was already having this urge to buy something mint-colored, and now I have to!!! I am not sure if I can pull off mint jeans, so maybe I'll start with the nails? I always need to have them painted, but I bite a lot too! And now they are breaking a lot... I should start eating more veggies!

Anyway, it looks great! Doing my nails always makes me feel instantly more dressed up :)

PS: I'm having a giveaway for new moms and moms-to-be! I'd love if you checked it out! :)

Essie's A Crewed Interest- the cutest pink/coral is my new obsession. Also, I never stray from Seche Vite top coat. Super quick dry and my nails don't chip for days! AKA babyproof. For you. Not me. Yerwelcome.

Kira said...

I like that color. I never paint my nails. It always ends up looking terrible and chips within the day.

Megan said...

hahahah "thank you korean genes" i just died a little.

Alex Byer said...

Love Essie. And love doing my own nails. Obviously, it's because we're Asian. Clearly.

Mish Lovin' Life said...

HA! Don't those Korean genes just come in handy at the most important times in life? I sure think so...

I love the color! Good job, I'm so proud.

Great job! I never paint my nails because when I do, it's on days when I want to do a lot of things. LOL.

I love the SALLY HANSEN'S Insta- Dry!!! They have an awesome Teal:)

Heather said...

I love Zoya. They are toxin free and vegan friendly if that's your thang, but also amazing! They also do promotions every once in awhile like 2 free bottles just pay shipping. Love them.

caz said...

Yup, one colour each hand... coz I was going to alternate and forgot till I'd done one hand and didn't want to start over... so one hand green, one hand grey.. feel a bit 80's, but lovin it!
