I used to have a bit nail polish addiction. Between working in a pet store, my son, and college I don't seem to have the time to do my nails these days. I still have a ton, and most still worked fine when I went through them this summer. I just tried the crackle coat this summer, great dark purple color, looks gorgeous over lilac and seagreen.

I can't make a design to save my life but I love nail polish. That would be cool to have it here but never gonna happen.

I love glitter, metallic blue, bright blue, silver, and black. I have a metallic green as well but I don't use it much.

Last time I painted my nails, they were bright blue with black tips.

I draw/paint a lot though, so I don't do my nails very often because they'd get ruined quickly.

I like painting my nails simply because it keeps me from biting them, so they get a chance to grow out a bit instead of staying super-short all the time.
Greens, blues and purples are my thing. For some reason, I don't like warm colors, even for my nail polish.

Somewhat festive nails. The base coat is this really awesome gun metal that has either a blue or green undertone depending on the lighting, with a Sinful Colors dark red for the tip.

love ,love cute nails i am buying some china glaze and cute colors next month

I'm a polish addict, but my latest craze is the Zoya nail polish. I have a few by Julep (and they're great but SO expensive) but I'm all over Zoya.

I have 12 Zoya polishes: Kimmy, Mimi, Apple, Ali, Dove, Jo, Trixie, Richelle, Kristen, Megan, Kendal, and Kennedy. And I'll be amassing more slowly. I justify it by telling myself that it's definitely cheaper than getting a manicure every week, and that the cost for a bottle ($8, but I've gotten all of mine using promo codes) is totally justifiable when I look at it as like 10-15 manis.

I am addicted to those Sally Hansen Salon Effects strips. None of the other stickers work as well.

My latest pretty nails.

I love nail polish! I have a whole plastic shoebox bin full. I get a lot of different brands, mostly cheap ones, since I change my manicure weekly, so having my polish last for a super long time isn't so much an issue. China Glaze is the brand you want if you're splurging though. It is SO nice.

I do a lot of nail art, and watch a ton of nail art tutorials on Youtube. They're addicting! I like doing stripes the best, and usually just use a steady hand, though I have also used tiny brushes, toothpicks, and painter's tape as tools.

I haven't worn polish in a couple of weeks now, because I misplaced my Sally Hansen Double Duty basecoat/topcoat and haven't found it yet, plus I've been super busy. My last manicure though was candy cane stripes. I used a nice cherry red as a basecoat, then used a white nailart polish (with tiny brush) to do diagonal stripes, staggering thin and slightly wider ones. In the end, my manicures usually end up with at least five coats of polish: base coat, color, details, top coat, 2nd top coat. My nails are naturally very thin, so layering up helps them not break.

For my next manicure, I'm gonna do a reverse French. Black nails with white half-moons at the cuticles.

I love any and all neon colors!! I have quite a few but i only use a few.
