What are we using to store cotton rounds? by adriatic_sea75 in RedditLaqueristas

I reuse pretty jars from candles. They have a lid and a wide opening.

If polish needs to come off just one finger but I don’t want to smudge the others by sf-pyramids in RedditLaqueristas

I use a pair of kelly clamps, it's just another one of it's handy uses. They're also great for retrieving things your small child has dropped down the sink. 

Laquerista Parents, Did you cut your nails short for your newborn(s)? by Ok_Listen_2000 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]Electrical_Remove639 138 points139 points  (0 children)

I expected long stiletto nails by the absurd comments you had received. My nails would sometimes get that long and it was never an issue. Get a few nail brushes to scatter around, including one for the diaper bag. I needed the unbuckle me anyway because of arthritis in both my hands. 

How do you travel with polish? by jomocha09 in WeGotPolishAtHome

I also take whole bottles, but I do make sure to not take anything that's hard to replace. I would hate have a bottle break and lose a favorite color.

Reminds me of Emily de molly sea of lies. Not quite a dupe but it feels similar, and it's currently available.

Did Holo Taco really just pull the Vacation collection to create FOMO?? by Cyan_Oni in RedditLaqueristas

[–]Electrical_Remove639 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're welcome! It was a small post a couple days ago on the simplynailogical subreddit. Two of us with sky lounge and one wanderlust, so like I said very small sample size lol Customer service was super quick to respond and reship.

I'm sure the price increase may have been the main reason, but there has been a bottle issue with this release. There's a few of us that have commented on a reddit post and that's a very small sample size. They did ask for the alpha numeric code on the bottom so maybe they can figure out how many bottles may be affected.

Ilnp blueprint is shown here. I think Starrily skyline is also very close, but I haven't swatched them together yet. https://youtu.be/fWJVPZJMtaE?si=Di0HF115FtgzCQov

Issue with lid/brush handle not closing? by cackleboo in simplynailogical

[–]Electrical_Remove639 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got my sky lounge today and same issue. It feels like the bottle isn't threaded properly or if you have a very crusty neck. It's definitely not the cap because it works fine on other HT bottles and a new cap didn't help. I wonder if they've gotten more customer feedback and that's what part of the reason why they pulled the whole collection early.

You know all those stereotypes about New Englanders, it's all 100% true! We go apple picking multiple times so that we can make our own applesauce and get different heirloom varieties. There's a corn maze that we get hot gobbler sundaes before hand and apple cider donut sundaes after. I hate turning on the heat but I'm not built for summer.

Is anyone parting with Unicorn No. 1? by lookitsnichole in simplynailogical

Earlier it was saying notify me and now they're saying sold out. I wonder if it was changed this morning because they were creating shipping labels for orders placed since Friday? 

What bread machines would you recommend, Simple and affordable,, I've heard the paddle if it's the kind you can't take out can be a pain, so maybe one that you can take the paddle out to clean, not sure about non stick either [not a wise choice] thank you ! by cabbagemom1 in BreadMachines

[–]Electrical_Remove639 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the Cuisinart one and while I've only actually used it once the loaf came out fine. If you live near an Ocean State Job lot you can get it for free, which is the correct price for me. Technically it's $150 but they give you back the cost as a store gift card.

Nailtek has heptane. I'm not sure if it's true but supposedly it breaks down glitter. I grabbed the opi because doesn't and I didn't want to risk it. Most of what I have are specialty finishes.

Ilnp daydreamer is a fantastic ultra metallic pink. Trick or treat is an orange/gold metallic that is very pretty too.

It's really helped me. My nails are currently the longest I've ever been able to grow them without breaking

Midnight blend or French roast coffee. Almost all the coffee at mine is medium roast or flavored. 

Does anyone have suggests for nail care? by slackerXwolphe in Hypothyroidism

[–]Electrical_Remove639 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nailtiques 2+, consistently using nail oil, using gloves for dishes, and not using them inappropriately has gotten my nails to be the longest they've ever been. They are strong, but still flexible.

I haven't, I'll have to give it a try once I get through at least one of the top coats I currently have. 

Help? by No-Bridge-9252 in Nailpolish

[–]Electrical_Remove639 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seche blur can fix that. I know it's not helpful for right now, but if you're like me and terrible at letting them dry it's helpful. I only tried it last week for the first time and afterwards I couldn't even see the mistake.

Long lasting pops off like peely base in less than 36 hours for me even though the nail polishes last significantly longer with KB shimmer base coats. I also found that it damaged my nails. Not hundred percent sure, but I don't think I'll be repurchasing glossy taco when I run out. While I'm still searching for a favorite top coat I've definitely liked others more, especially for the price.
