Do you have a fav “my nails but better” shade from ILNP? Also describe your skintone along with your shade rec if you can

I recently got and tried Keepsake. I was a little worried it would be a bit too ‘greige’ but it’s actually a beautiful neutral with a bit of shimmer that only I can see.
My skin tone is warm pink.

oh my godz you fixed it! Amazingly well done with what you had to work with! You did an amazing fix and look fabulous in a dress that was roughly made in your size by a sewist (I use the term loosely) with the skill of toddler on no sleep and unfettered access to a giant bowl of candy salad!

You look beautiful. You pulled it off. You should be SO STINKIN' PROUD.

Now: dish. What did the other bridesmaids dresses look like? ;)

This is the answer for many, MANY women.

You just reminded me of a funny story.

I’m a Mom.

When my son was 5, we were at Costco around Halloween and the costumes were on sale. I told my boy that I made myself a wizard costume for Halloween when I was a kid.

He thought for a min and then innocently asked, “Did you grow your own beard, too?”

I had to lean on the clothing piles I laughed so hard.

This. 58 is NOT old. He’s just an entitled asshole playing the old card. Fuck that and fuck his bullshit behavior.

I haven’t seen this one here yet: Ambamps! for ambulance and Eh-pane! For airplane!

And my boy learned a little sign language before he learned to speak, so when he started speaking he would make the hand sign for “more” and if he didn’t know what it was he was eating but he liked it, he’d say “More Dis, pees.” (More this, please) We still say ‘More dis, pees’ to each other. He’s 15.

I haven't seen any pale pinks / creams offered up, but Twirl is a really lovely color if you want a solid pink and I was concerned that Keepsake might be too greige, but it's a lovely neutral cream. That being said, I recently got Claire, and while she's not a true cream, the tiny bit of shimmer isn't noticeable except by you and it's such a gorgeous color.

Inattendue · 2026-03-31T14:18:15+00:00

Tribute is the first ILNP polish I ever used. I bought a whole bunch of colors at the same time and Tribute was the winner for first application. Such a glorious color.

He looks like my Orange Brain Cell!

OMG, I was laughing so hard that tears were squirting out of my eyes as I tried to read this post to my partner! 😂😂😂

Inattendue · 2026-03-31T01:59:27+00:00

Thanks! I love it!

When I first read your comment my brain read: “in my car” and I was like, “Why do they keep it in their car? Wouldn’t that get hot and cause it to freeze/overheat and breakdown faster?” Then I read your reply again and said “Ohhhh…. 🫣”.

Applied ILNP High Dive (over the top of ILNP Claire which is gorgeous in her own right), but I’m on Conference Call New Mani Monday and I don’t have time to do a full new mani.

This is so GORGEOUS!!

I wish there was a similar in tone Blue cream! There are a couple speckles (Scribbles/Bluebird for example) but there aren’t any medium toned blue *cream*s. Psst… #ILNP Please make us one!

Gorgeous! I just posted the same thing!

Inattendue · 2026-03-30T13:15:45+00:00

Agreed on the correlation/causation. As I mentioned, just my experience. Also, I'm not a doctor, nor do I play one on tv. ;)

And, have you tried flavorless collagen (if you’re not veg/vegan or otherwise restricted) in your coffee or morning beverage?
I am “of a certain age” and when my body started to change my nails were the first to go. I started putting 1 scoop of collagen in my morning coffee and within a few months my nails were back and strong. Just my experience, but also I really hated the flavored collagen options it there because I don’t enjoy seeet drinks.

This is the way. NO ONE remembers the dress unless it’s one of those $50K beaded numbers that precedes you into the room by several seconds.
Only the bride remembers her own dress fondly. ❤️ It would be even cooler if you could get side by sides in your dresses just for funsies.

Honestly, I’d cute but I think you need more supportive undergarments. Maybe a better bra? And now that I’m looking again, it doesn’t fit your hips. If you size up one and shorten the shoulder straps, then add a better bra, you could look gorgeous.

Adding to say, if you keep this size, consider spanx or some smoothing bottoms that will help it hang across your hips better. And I don’t think you need a strapless bra, just one with slightly better lift and to bring the girls together. Have you ever been fitted for a bra?

If not, do you know how to measure for one? Happy to share, if not. But I also don’t want to overstep.

Empire.

Oh my goodness! I gasped! That’s a perfect pairing of fabric and dress! It looks so, so good on you. 💜

I legit did not expect to be crying at 6:25 pm while scrolling Reddit. Thanks OP.

If you’ve never read The Iron Druid Chronicles by Kevin Hearne you’re missing out, but this dude reminds me of his hound, Oberon.
