"Nail" me!

Princess4u · 02-06-2010, 12:35 PM

Well yes I agree it would be nice to be nailed by a gentlemen...but then would a gentleman really "nail" you..hummm food for thought!!

Now as for them nails...
I am a nurse and in water all the time and those purell sanitzers dont help much. Keeping your hands and nailbed well lubricated (heheheehehe) i know i am bad...but it helps...I like the goldbond products they dont leave the wet, overly lubbed feeling...as I am applying said lotion to the hands I am also massaging my nailbed and cuticles. I do this while at a red light in the car, or watching TV and after shower and oh ues doing dishes. That seems to help especially in the cold weather. I try to be careful with my finances, being single is hard on the purse, so I dont go to het the manicure thing done very often. Instead I have one of those 7 sided nail files which smooth and buff....actually I have found that this really helps to strengthen...my nails tend to be very thin and brittle, the peel and break if you look at them funny. So I do this about every 2 weeks and it helps some. Applying harders everyday will also help...do it while watching the evening news or your fav show....you are sitting there doing nothing anyway. Just some suggestions..I hope it helps. I am going to try the vit E....

This afternoon I was shopping and picked up some vitamin E capsules.

My favorite hand cream is a German product called "Glysomed". It was suggested to me by a woman who produces hand-made evergreen wreaths each fall. She says it saved her hands. Anyone I've ever introduced to it is impressed. It's in lime/forest green flat jar. (not tested on animals)

My favorite nail tool is a glass nail file.They're normally fairly pricey, but my girl found one at a surplus store for Six bucks. Unfortunately it got broken, and I haven't been able to find one as nice since. If you've never tried a really thin glass file then you don't know what you're missing.

To tell the truth, even if I could afford to go to a salon to get my nails done I'm a little bit scared of fungal infections. And in any case I'm really enjoying getting back into the habit of pampering myself a bit.

Any other tips out there?

Enquiring s want to know!

I would love to have long nails but Im way too rough on them. They get broken and chipped all the time so I have resigned myself to having short nails.

They are currently painted "Ruby Pumps" which is a great glittery red

My nails grow fast, strong and for many years I grew my own natural nails. Like Medusa its almost impossible for me to keep them nice, being on the farm, gardening, etc.

Use essential oil
rosemary, tea tree, lemon, vita E

the lemon will help whiten discolored nails. Rub this oil into your nails at night. A few nights a week is enough.

Do not cut your cuticles. They will only grow back more. Take an cuticle stick and gently push them back when you are oiling your nails.

To bring luster and shine- get a file

simply follow the steps- numbers. It will buff your nails to a beautiful sexy shine and all natural. You will love it

I do grow my nails a bit even on the farm but thats mostly to scratch my pets. lol - seriously. I also suspect I'll be using them to scratch a back soon.

I bought those years ago and they are wonderful!!!! I wish I could grow my nails long but I have a protesting grandson who likes to play Catch Me If You Can and I accidentally scratched him. So I keep them not too short but love to wear nail polish in warm peach tones.

Sally Hansen's Hard As Nails is an awesome product for keep the nails hard as nails. LOL

Once upon a luncheon.. I heard Ms Medusa say...

"It was the FUCK ME IN THE ASS red nail polish color"

*I* personally avoid that particular color...

I would drip it all over the boys back though for the tapping it from behind visiual stimulation purpose....

That is all...

OMG. I had completely forgot about that! But I must say the look on your face was fucking PRICELESS!

You never know what you might find when you open up a thread around here.

My tips:
Always use a clear topcoat over your polish.
It's worth it to pay a little more for a brand like OPI because it will last much longer.

Soft*Silver · 02-06-2010, 05:27 PM

go to a horse tack store and buy a jar of corona horse hoof moisturizer. Seriously. Use it every day on your nails..rub it especially on the nail bed. Use it between coats of polish and use it before you put on fresh polish. I am telling you..your nails will be so strong and grow so long!

Glass nail files are available from Amazon and Sephora - after seeing them mentioned here I added them to my Holiday shopping list

So thanks!

Nails are my hobby of the year for 2010, and I had a lot of fun with Konad nail stamping, they also have some great simple french tip style stamp. Basically you can stamp little icons or designs onto your nails, it's actually quite quick!

For self polishing, practice practice practice, when I started I could barely polish my right hand better than a 5 year old. Now I'm much faster and enjoy the creative aspects a lot more.

For great long lasting Polish and less chipping nails ( I work all day on a computer keyboard) Seche Vite is the absolutely best top coat every. I do 2 coats and can type all week and my nails wil stay whole for a whole week and sometimes longer.
