Half of a shitty polish job done with a crappy Ulta polish called Diva. I work with vinyl all day every day and I can't keep polish on my nails for anything.
My toes have OPI Kiss Me on My Tulips though and I love that color.

I actually have polish on! It a week old but it's Sally Hanson Sheer Ecstasy. Very subtle, it looks completely clear in this picture, but it's a bit more opaque in person. I even took a picture on day 1 or 2 just in case this thread popped up. I need a redo today, maybe some actual color today.

I don't like Essie in general but am wearing Preta-a-Surfer. Great one coat blue! OPI Cajun Shrimp up next. A classic that I just bought

Some neutral on my fingers. My toes are Red Hot Rio - it just seemed fitting.

Clinique A Different Nail Polish "Summer in the City" on my toes. Fingernails are my usual French manicure done with Zoya "Snow White" tips and Essie All-in-One over that.

Currently my fingernails have Sinful Colours Pistache with Pina Colada (I think L'Oreal) top coat. It's a top coat that smells like pina colada, is clear with tiny silver and green glitter.
My toes have Essie ummm I forget the name.lol It's a blue color. Something Bikini.
I'm going Monday with my sister to get an Olympic themed mani. I'm looking forward to it. :-)

SabrinaP (and others) - how do you like those two gel polish systems? I haven't tried gel polish, but polish only lasts on my fingernails about 3 days max, less if I do the dishes (my husband usually does them). Do they work well, and is there a base coat that works best with them? I usually use CND stickey as my base. I don't want to get into any serious gel systems but I'd be willing to try the ones where you just need the polish and the top coat.

I've tried the Sally Hansen gel and HATED it. It's the only polish I have ever returned.

The Sally Hansen gel is awful. I haven't tried any of the others since my experience with it was so bad.

I'm hard on my nails and usually only get polish to last 2 days before it chips and I have to remove. I like the Essie Gel Setter top coat the best. I can get a good 5 days out of my polish with it. I heard really good things about the new Essie Gel Coutour line. I plan to give it a try soon. I like the Sally Hansen gel polish and top coat, but some colors last better than others. The Wet N Wild gel polish is nice. I've been using the Essie Gel Setter on top of all polish lately.

Nothing right now. I plan to paint them with They keep breaking right now as I keep jamming them into things.

I have some sort of Opi red shade on my toes, but I can't remember the name. I just had a pedicure yesterday.
I just polished my fingernails, which is rare for me. I'm wearing Orly Color Amp'd "The Boulevard ", which is a light white with a tiny bit of glitter in it. I did a terrible job of it but I love the look.

I'm wearing Cherry Nova from Scofflaw right now, and I love it! My Formula X base coat is kicking ass too-I can get a whole week out of my manicures with this stuff!

Some sort of shellac in a bright coral. I need a fill and can't decide what colour to get then. Also, I was painting today :rofl:

Currently my fingers are naked. My toes have one of the OPI "Hello Kitty" bright pink shades and it is much prettier on than it was in the bottle. Nail tech even commented on how nice it looked.

I got an email from Ulta today and one of the featured products is the new OPI Washington DC collection. I think I might "need" several of these shades. I especially like Squeaker of the House, Shhh...It's Top Secret, We the Female and Kerry Blossom. OPI Washington DC Collection

I haven't been in my new job long enough yet to really let my nail freak flag fly, so I'm still playing it safe. I had my nails done last week in China Glaze "Garter Belt"
but then I used some barrier cream stuff on a patient that I'd never used before and it wrecked my polish totally (dissolved the top coat!) so I'm about to repaint them or I might put a coat of OPI "Petal Soft" over the top and then put another top coat on and see what that looks like.
