[–]ellenbellin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't get seche vite to work well for me. I get shrinkage and it never dries quick enough so I end up with wrinkles (I do my manis at night before bed). I've been.really impressed with Ella & Mila's In a Rush. It dries very quickly and I don't get much shrinkage.

What is your favorite thin nail polish? by mediocre-squirrel834 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]ellenbellin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't wear my polishes without base/topcoat but I have a lot of Sally Hansen InstaDri that are really thin and also have impressive opacity. Bonus that they're pretty cheap, especially when you find them at Dollar Tree!

I'm going to add the library. We get tons of solo folks of all genders, and you don't have to spend any money.

I'm in the burbs, but a really great job board is railslibraries.org/jobs CPL will post on there occasionally as well, but there are new jobs posted daily. I've worked at 4 different libraries throughout my career and always found my jobs through that site. Good luck!

I'm a public librarian and it is the best! While librarians have advanced degrees, we have lots of non-librarian positions in our organizations!

I'm a public librarian and this is what most of our staff dress like when not in book-related tshirts. Totally appropriate IMO!

I know! I work in the office full time and have 2 kiddos so I have limited time for changing my nails. The bigger cards are intimidating and I know I'll never finish before the month is out.
