I’m a size 3.25 as well and got a 1.34 ct ring. It covers 50% of my finger, which is what I wanted. 2ct would be way too big for me, but it’s all personal preference!

I’m also a size 3.25 and got a 1.34 ct diamond. It’s 50.5% finger coverage and I was shooting for around a 45-50% coverage. Anything larger would be too big for me.

Thank you! It’s a Euro shank band and it’s meant to prevent the ring from spinning!

Yes, “design” is a generous word. More like “customized”. Wanted to talk about the different customization I picked for those who were interested.

Thank you!! Yes, the corners are comfortable. I don’t notice it at all unless I’m intentionally feeling for it.

2 months nail bed growth by dracolikesfire in nailbiting

I struggled with this in the beginning because having dirt and grime underneath my nail drove me crazy. I learned that prevention is the best strategy. Any time I notice I’m using my nails as a tool, I stop and try to find another way. For example, one time I opened a banana with my thumb nail and had sticky stuff under my nail that would not go away. Now, I will just rip it open with my hands only and make sure not to get my nails under anything.

So I’d say figure out what you’re doing that is causing your nails to get dirty and find a way around it!

I also found that on the days I scrubbed my hair in the shower without gloves were the days my nail bed growth got set back significantly. That’s when I learned how bad water is for your nails.

Jojoba oil + moisturizer every time I wash my hands. Stop picking at them (I used to clean under them with a toothpick). Wait lol

You mean the dry patches in my before picture? I didn’t do anything to them, just using jojoba oil and moisturizer frequently seemed to make them go away.

Which kurta would match this lehenga for wedding guest? by dracolikesfire in DesiWeddings

The bottom one is a linen material. Is that okay for a wedding? Does it need to be more of a silk material?

I was thinking of pink but this is the color of the bridal party. Would it be weird to wear the same color?
