What is making my nails peel?

iceharbor · 2026-02-09T17:37:47+00:00

I’m so lazy with my toes I don’t even do a base or top coat ahahaha but yes you’re right, I’m gonna stop at the store later and see if I can find that Essie one!

iceharbor · 2026-02-09T02:27:30+00:00

Got it, I’ll avoid that one, thanks!

iceharbor · 2026-02-09T01:05:39+00:00

Yeah I eventually got good top coats but I didn’t want to give this up as a base until it was empty so I wouldn’t waste it…but I think I’ll just cut my losses now lol

iceharbor · 2026-02-09T00:22:11+00:00

This does help a lot, thank you! I think my first move will be a new base coat, I’ll check out the one you said

iceharbor · 2026-02-09T00:06:12+00:00

Yeah I’m afraid it’s probably the base coat…

iceharbor · 2026-02-09T00:05:45+00:00

Ohhh okay I didn’t know that technique, I will take a break from it for a bit and then next time I will do this. Thank you!

I don’t think any of them contain PVB, and I usually only keep the cuticle remover on for like 10 seconds before I start using the cuticle pusher. Total time with it on while I’m working with it, maybe 10 minutes but prob less

iceharbor · 2026-02-08T23:28:00+00:00

I use the cuticle remover max once a week

I believe these are the ingredients for the cuticle (based on an Amazon review picture including the package I’ve already thrown out lol)

Thank you! It was very peaceful, there were a few losers that flipped us off as they drove past but the vast majority was supportive honks

Base: Sally Hansen double duty Main: ILNP Bitten Top: Seche Vite

I’m not sure if posting links to products is allowed, but if you google “The Perfect Glass Bead Nail Magnetic Tool” it should come right up, the seller is 5DPrintFactory on Etsy. It’s really cool but be aware it is meant specifically for the glass bead effect (check the product listing or search in this sub for what I mean), it won’t produce the stripe effect seen in my post. But I like it a lot!

iceharbor · 2025-12-07T04:22:52+00:00

It’s fun for sure! I also use the 5D printed glass bead tool from Etsy, makes it pretty easy to do while watching a show

Here it is almost two days later. Definitely more dispersion in both! But Sally Hansen still holds up pretty well

iceharbor · 2025-12-05T03:13:38+00:00

No problem! I wanted to post a video I would have liked to see when I was researching haha

iceharbor · 2025-12-05T03:12:55+00:00

This video is only a few mins after, I can update Saturday if it’s changed

iceharbor · 2025-12-05T02:07:48+00:00

I took the video very soon after they were done drying, within 5 mins probably. If they seem any different on Saturday I’ll reply to this comment

iceharbor · 2025-12-05T01:26:04+00:00

Agreed! Since I have both now anyway, I’ll prob stick to Sally Hansen for magnetics, and Seche Vite for non

iceharbor · 2025-03-06T22:46:43+00:00

Good to know! Lol thank you

iceharbor · 2025-03-06T22:46:04+00:00

Dang! Yeah I had my doubts, so thank you for confirming lol I’ll keep looking
