I was off today, so I took DD to get our nails done. My hands are short and French., just like they are year round. My toes are an OPI color, can't remember the name but a very dark purple that almost looks black. DD has black fingers with white spots and metallic blue toes with white flowers. Oh and I got my pits waxed, in case you were wondering...

Where did you find nail primer? Didn't know there was such a thing, but if it works, sounds great! I just use base coat. maryland, it's the same primer used for acrylic nails, but it works so well with gels! I never get my nails done, so I am so out of it with new nail things! So it's not something you can buy and to yourself? I have never used gel polish, can it be used with regular basecoat, polish, topcoat? Sorry for all the questions!

I have yet to figure out how to take a decent photo of my nails but here's mine right now. I always love doing holiday themed nails. The red is Gelish Just In Case Tomorrow Never Comes, the blue is Gelish Caution, and the glitter is LeChat Hologram Diamond (my most favorite glitter polish ever). The ring finger is stamped with Konad white stamping polish and an anchor design from Bundle Monster. Attachments:

French pink, but not actually french manicure. Just the pink.

OPI's I Eat Mainely Lobster on my fingers. It's a coral/orange with a very slight shimmer. Great summer color. On my toes is Sinful Colors' Endless Blue. It's a really beautiful deep, royal blue. Definitely a favorite color in my collection. I am going to paint my toes Endless Blue too! Love that color and SH Pacific Blue (recommended on here a couple of years ago).
I am painting my nails one of my many hot pinks!
My nails are a mess now! Haven't redone them since the end of May!
I switched to OPI's The Color of Minnie for my fingers. It's a nice, bright red, so combined with the blue on my toes I'll be downright patriotic.

I didn't buy it when the collection came out, and no stores around here carry it. I love that color and it will look perfect with the Endless Blue on the toes. Perfect for the holiday!

Nothing on my fingernails, my nails were breaking so I cut them and took off the polish. I had a pink on them by Crabtree and Evelyn. Don't remember the name. I wanted to wear OPI's Bubble Bath but couldn't get the darn bottle open. I even tried a few different things that didn't work. Maybe next time. My toenails have Blue Rhapsody on them. Its a nice metallic blue. www.temptalia.com/images/holiday2012/essie_bluerhapsody003.jpg

So it's not something you can buy and to yourself? I have never used gel polish, can it be used with regular basecoat, polish, topcoat? Sorry for all the questions! You can do it yourself. After you cleanse your nails with acetone or remover, then you apply a coat of primer. You then follow with the recommended routine of applying gels. Just be sure not to touch the nail with your skin after you've applied the primer. I've only used the primer with acrylic nails and gels applied with an LED light. I don't know if it would work with gel polish you can buy at the drugstore, although I'm inclined to think it would because it just prepares the nail.

Pardon my fingers, but I am wearing my Jamberry Muddy Girl Realtree nail wraps. We're camping so I thought they fit the theme.
