Tonight I got a mani/pedi. These are my real nails. I say that because I normally get an acrylic overlay, no tips, but the overlay fo sho on my nails because I think the polish lasts longer. Anyway, I go through phases where I need a soak off and after this soak off it felt so good to not have that thick junk on my nail beds. Have you heard of shallac? It was described to me as a gel that is finished by UV light, only take a couple minutes to soak off, the polish lasts a couple of weeks, and its a lot better for your nails. I think I may be trying it soon. But for now, I'll stick to paint until my nails are feeling strong again. I always say "as short as possible, please!" My nail beds are super long and grow fast! Don't hate on my long monkey toes, k? I guess I'm just really long everywhere.
I haven't shown you Lee's coffee corner yet, have I? My man loves his coffee and orders it in bulk.It's a lot cheaper to order it in bulk. There are 2 boxes on that top shelf and all the bowls and jars are stuffed with his yummies too. Well, I take that back. #3 has packets to make hot chocolate...and that's more my thing. #2 is for ground coffee, all the other containers are his keurig cups. So, I was making a grocery list and making sure I have all his favorites for when he comes home, I opened this cabinet and decided he still has plenty of coffee...

all my girlfriends from Indy are loving the shellac. I'm sure your manicure-loving self will love it, too.
Really? Good to hear! I'll let you know!
I've had shellac. It stayed on for over two weeks without chipping, but it made my nails peel a little. I was told you're supposed to give your nails a break with regular polish for a week or two before getting it again!
I spy Coopie's matching nails in the background!!
@ Stacy, do you have to do a soak off each time you get a new polish? I assume you do since you don't do fills, right? If it's so much better for your nails, I don't get why your nails would peel! That's what acrylic does!
@Taylor, you are correctomondo. He's my inspiration for everything. I kid I kid. Ha!
They told me it was better for your nails too. I took it off myself though, so maybe that's why they peeled? You are supposed to go to the salon to get them soaked off.
