@fairydogmother - They look perfect! I love the color too! You tried different things until you find the perfect way.

 

 

 

 

 

 I'm lucky. My nails are plenty strong and they grow easily. BUT  -  they have white spots from using dark colors, even though I use a base coat. I need to figure out how to get rid of those. I'm afraid to use anything across the front of my nail. So I just put more coats on.  Smiley Frustrated


I discovered that I get the white spots, especially on my toenails, if I leave the polish on too long.  It's a pain to change polish more frequently,  but it has helped.

 

Good luck!

Thanks guys. Btw I'm surprised my Florida house panther didn't make it into the photo. He was in the midst of a wild tear, bouncing off furniture and zooming around

Hi juperier3, I remember you, too. It's nice to be back and reading on the forum. I just got a set of butter LONDON holiday colors from HSN during a recent 25% off sale. $15 for 4 bottles is a steal even if they are last year's colors. They work still this year Smiley Very Happy

Thank you for the compliment. Sheer pink polish in my manicure kit includes:

Essie Skinny Dip, Essie Ballet Slippers, Sally Hansen Once Chiffon a Time ( the Miracle Gel polish collection. I also use the clear top coat)

Re: My nails are finally in good shape

Thanks for the advice @SnowOwl79@juperier3 . and @Chopsmom!

 

 

 

 IDK - I did ask my dermatologist years ago. She said it's nothing to worry about. They're not on every nail. She buffs hers, but she always likes my latest color - LOL!

 

 

I've never had tips or anything else. I did get a gel manicure once. It was great not having to worry about them, but I kept thinking there was something on them. and it bothered me.

 

 

 

 I use a non-acetone remover, and I always use solar oil. I wash my hands thoroughly after I rub that in. 

 

 

I do change the color every one or two weeks. Right now I'm wearing OPI Dressed to the Wines.   Smiley Happy
