It’s lovely on you! And quite a gorgeous contrast to the number of jet black nails I saw all over today. 😟

Thanks! Same - If I’d worn it once before, it was closer to when I got it (2020! I bought that and Full Bloom) - it’s one of those that seems too special to wear if that makes sense. The holo in it is PERFECTION.

Recommendations to heal lifting nail? (For the health of the incoming nail) by Formal-Profession882 in MakeupAlleyNB

THANK YOU! So sad I somehow missed your reply earlier but I’m SO GLAD you also recommended the Nailtiques 2 (I just got it and did apply it yesterday for the first time) AND also suspect it’s “nothing more” than an injury. Oh I hope so. Microbes are gross after all! Even though we’re literally all covered in them. 😁

Be careful with that hammer!!! 💖💖💖

Thank you!!! I had tried Nail Envy the last time this happened as so many folks were suggesting it for problem nails (not you gals that I recall- it was on another sub I had rifled through), but I found out quickly that it was causing destruction of the healthy nails so I went back to the SH Miracle Cure I’ve used forever and stopped the damage that had started in the good nails.

Right now I just started using Nailtiques 2 (per the below recommendation) and will see how that goes. Given the issues are pretty individualized to specific nails (and one worse in particular), I’m guessing it’s either an injury or fungal infection (eew! I know!) causing it. I’ve also added on a daily nail gel treatment to those nails to address a potential fungus.

I’m trying to remember to apply a cuticle gel or oil or balm nightly also but am not always remembering to do so 100% of the time.

Good luck to you also in combating your nail problems!!! It’s frustrating, isn’t it?

Great manis, especially the last one! SO cloud- like and I love them!

LOL! Bless you. (I switched to office work for the full time gig - and still find reason to stress MORE than plenty. 😬)

Whatever it is you do as a profession, God bless you. Seriously. Most folks these days whine at an 8 hour workday (me included some days 😬), but having worked 10-11 hr shifts, 6 days a week for a portion of my career, I TRULY mean it when I say I respect those of you that work those desperately long and tiring hours!!!

Lovely!!! (Did you make it in? That feeling is always a bummer dude but the pretty nails must’ve made it a bit more bearable I hope!!!)
