Primary Colors

First off….. Nails gone. Lol

I love when my nails get to start over. I’m always the most productive then.

I like when they grow out as well…. But one of my nails felt like it was about to break, and I wasn’t about to sit and babysit any nails…. Plus I kept accidentally scratching myself. So I cut them off.

Then finally repolished.

I created a decal for my ring finger design with a stamp design and added color. Primary colors. Applied over a base of a white no-chip polish.

Fun stuff…. Will definitely do this again. 😁😁😁

Naked

I was inspired by this very sheer and lightly tinted “correcting” polish from Zoya.
It looks soooo pretty and finished on people’s nails. Non-intrusive and apparently wears extremely well and nourishes the nail.

But since I’m fully committed to being ’bout this no-chip life…

Lol.

You can barely tell there is polish. Best neutral look ever.

And here are my nails before the polish:

The Dentist

Sep6 by Cheryl Cheryl

I can say with fervor and honest conviction that I HATE THE DENTIST.

As I’m writing this my whole face is throbbing in pain and all I can take right now is ibuprofen every six hours…. And it’s not helping.

I’m not sure why I, at all, thought it was a good idea to have a root canal procedure done just before a holiday… But I was just trying to get it done. Well, it backfired.

I’m stuck here in pain with only brief moments of mental clarity because tooth pain will wipe out consciousness, I swear. Tons of tears. And just as much anger.

And yes this is a nail blog.

At one of my dentists’ offices where I am being highway robbed, I’m certain…one of the dental assistants had the cutest nails ever. So I told her I was copying. 😁 I caught a glimpse of them while she was operating the 3D x-ray imaging machine that after I pay for, probably, will prevent me from buying groceries or gas for my car for the next 6 months. (More time to paint my nails, I suppose.)

Initially I was planning to do the color “peach” in place of “pink”. But I ended up completely copying her style. Lol.

Thank you, Trish, for the inspiration. I am certain I’ll be seeing you again sooner that I even want.

I HATE THE DENTIST! Is there a word stronger than “hate”?

After this post I’m consulting a thesaurus.
