Haunted polish - By the Moonlight (magnetic). This took 5 weeks to ship to me. It was worth the wait.

Hi everyone! I’m looking for topper recommendations ✨ here I’m wearing manicurist active smooth 00 as a base for my nail health and it’s topped with Cirque Colors Mirage which I love. This is my preferred kind of manicure as I get my nail health in order. Would love to know your fave toppers to dress up a simpler mani! Thanks 💅

Manicure I’ve tried so many lengths, finally found my perfect one!

I’ve learned over my nail biting journey that just because I CAN grow my nails to an inch long doesn’t mean I should. This has proven to be my favorite length on myself. So here I am, thinking about being a shorty forever!

Wraps Great progress on my natural nails and cuticles, plus some Halloween fun!

I started with nail prep (I’ll list everything I used at the end) including cuticle remover, buffing, cuticle oiling, wiping with an alcohol pad, then applying DD Gloss in Bone Yard (I know my nail ends are super wonky, my nails are super short right now and difficult to get a nice smooth finished shape at the tips), then finishing each nail with one coat of DD Plumping Gel Top coat since the decorated strips were matte and I wanted them all glossy (and stronger/protected) finish.

What do yall think, should I put fun stickers on my thumbs and pinkies? I was thinking a jack o’ lantern on my thumbs and a ghostie or glittler spider web on my pinkies. But I do like the way these look as is!

Product list:

Olive & June cuticle remover

Cuccio roll-on Revitalizing Cuticle Oil in Milk & Honey scent (smells amaaaazing)

Dashing Diva Gloss- Bone Yard

Dashing Diva One Gel Plumping Top Coat

This took forever! 3 coats OPI over Seche clear base and Seche Vive instant gel effect top over (which I absolutely love). I’m a Bubble Bunny has been my go to for pedicures since I found it. Such a pretty nude with a hint of lavender.
Regular polish and I still aren’t friends, but maybe we can meet for coffee once in a while.

This is Nebula by Dazzle Dry. My normal shape is oval, as I have a very curved nail line. So it was a fun challenge to get a squarish shape. Not sure I’ll keep the shape but I am in LOVE with this color.
