Naked Nails 7-4-11

My nails suck right now LOL.  Manicures are fine, I'm talking about my actual nails ... I love them at this length, but they don't love being this length!  I have so many tears & breaks & patches =(  I'll be cutting them down after my birthday, but I refuse to have short nails until then.  So I put on some fresh patches on Monday, and actually in pictures I can't even spot them all:



8/10 nails patched.  4 pretty serious breaks & 4 minor tears.  I just have such a hard time doing maintenance filing, because I always like them longer, but while 10-11mm might be ideal in my mind, my nails are much happier around 7-8mm.

I have an old gift-haul vid that I forgot I recorded, from when my friend de-stashed & I reaped the rewards, and I also went hauling over the weekend & picked up the China Glaze Metallic Crackles & the Ulta OPI exclusive colors, so that's what will be coming up soon, along with Zoya Jules on Mom's nails (it definitely looked much better on her) & China Glaze Starboard under Cracked Medallion which is on my nails matte-ified right now.

Thanks for reading =)

  2. Man I'd love to have them at that length but I'm not sure I'd be able to handle it or even maintain it. Very gorgeous though and I can totally understand why you refuse to cut them yet.

    You might not be happy with them, but I promise you: every girl in the world would be more than happy if she had your nails.

  5. Beautiful nails!! I am so jealous :( I am using Nailtek at the moment to try to grow mine out too. Although I would be happy with even just half your length! I was wondering, one of my nails (pinky) is slightly pitted, do you have any recommendations as to how I can fix that? I am buffing it slightly at the moment but for a long-term solution?
