can you use base/top coat as a shiny, clear nail polish?
because i bought a base/top coat that's supposed to be under and on top of colored nail polish, but i just like using the base/top coat alone
is that bad for your nails? or should i just buy regular clear nail polish?
dulcet.

Shouldn't be, when I get my nails Frenched, they use the top coat on top of the white paint so the texture evens out on my nails.

Thanks. :]

Like I said, when it's French, only a small part of it has paint on it, so the top coat goes directly on my nails, I think it's perfectly fine.

i was wondering... acrylics are not meant for your natural nails right? they HAVE to be painted on fake nails?

So I got my nails done today...
$18 total. Totally a rip off, since they charge $13 manicure &
$5 French. t0t.

I got yellow tips again; they airbrushed them.
I'm not really satisfied, but eh. >_<

Next time, I'm gonna try myself (:

$1.99 @ walgreens. lol

I was pretty doubtful about buying it @ walgreens but, they had like a 2 colors for $3 so I tried it out. I basically can cover my whole with just going over it once and it's like really glossy looking. I hella love it smile.gif Comes in cool colors too if you're looking outside of black.

I want to improve the health of my nails... one of my fingernails is REALLY brittle. (and just one of them, the 4rth finger)..there's dents and bumps everywhere and it's really nasty..

i think it was cuz i was stressed from breaking up =[

i currently only have ONE red nail polish & base/top coat
the nail polish was $1 (wet 'n' wild) and works pretty good with the sally hansen base/top coat
so i only have like $4-$5 worth of nail polish tongue.gif

i usually like the buy the smaller bottles that are like $5 for 4 mini bottles of nail polish so i can experiment and do different things with my nails. it runs out after i use them two times tho =_=;
i bought fake nails from this korean place before for like $2 each but i haven't really used them yet.

How do you guys paint the tip a different colour... so perfectly? Do you paint that part first or the base colour?
im` l0vEd
base color is always first.

thank you..yes, the flowers are hand painted. it's easy, just five dots, and you drag the paint towards the middle..dot the middle with sparkly polish :]
c e l i a .
^ it sounds simple
but whenever I try to do that, i always mess up

so I just stick to white tips
