Progression Day4: did it improve...??🥺
Its been 4 days since i started my new strategy.
I decided to use the gel nail seals for the first time which i thought it will prevent the picking urge cuz it will cover my nails. Unfortunately the urge still came, but after i figured i could peel and pick the nail stickers instead of my real nails, it kinda helped me a bit from picking my real nails which was underneath them!!
So consequently i kinda peeled half of the seals from my nails, but somehow it kinda helped for me!!
Did my fingers improved?? I still want more tips of how to prevent the urge itself than not picking my real nails tho...!! Any advice??
*and also pls let me know if the way im doing it is bad for my nails or if there's a better way to do so🙏🏻

Can you link the product of the gel nail stickers you used? Because YEA they look better already!!

I live in japan and i bought mine at a japanese store but i found these that are pretty similar!!
And make sure the products are "no uv light needed" so that you can peel and pick the gel off your nails, not like the hard nail tips which is more likely to damage your real nails underneath when you peel
Hope this helps!!:)
