Here's the black & white mani I mentioned that I wanted to do. I call it Cookies & Cream. This is my first time wearing black or white polish.

Thanks, Medgal!


Thanks! Actually the snow is not the worst thing, but the –10 C (14 F) temperature in the mornings! It's April

That's very nice of them.


Hi, Honey!

And mine! I lost two corners on Sunday, and yet another two yesterday.


Thanks, Kimibos!


Sounds like I'd better stay away from the Dior TC. Otherwise, I'll never get to wear all of my polishes!

yes.gif
MRV I decided I'd only wear it when I want a mani to last more than three days/very special occasions for the same reason

Black&white suits you well!

Thanks! I think I've outgrown all of my nail bed breaks, so I didn't cut them down. I can see my coke nails starting to appear because my pinky nails grow faster than my other nails. I like the square shape so I'll probably keep doing it for a while. I may even cut them short again.

Oh, I tried the Dior glass file for this mani and I like it a lot after my first use. I feel like my nails have a smoother edge and it didn't take as long to file them straight. My nails also seem stronger. I think I prefer using a glass file and will continue doing so. I might order the Dior nail kit from Sephora during the VIB sale. It comes with the glass file, a jar of Creme Abricot and some other items. I also like the bag it comes in.

CC Your nails look strong. When I read your post what do you think I did???? I looked at my pinky nails and started cracking up because mine seem to grow faster than the others too. I don't think I've ever had a coke nail though

I previously looked at and considered the Dior nail kit because of all of the goodies in it. I like the bag too. I keep my tools and hardeners, etc in a bag that has seen better days!! The VIB sale is incentive for me to go ahead and pull the trigger already.
Thanks! Ugh. I don't do too well in the cold.

Yes you want them all, I too

but I think my wallet doesn't completely agree ! I love the OPI James Bond Girls collection, the Orly and Essie ones and I found the China Glaze texture ( texture or liquid sand polishes look really flattering on toes ), I also need the 3 Chanel summer collec. ones and both the Dior duos and the Nars Pierre Hardy ( 2 of them ) !

The Crème Abricot is very good ( really thick though ), I think it's a perfect treatment for nails and cuticules but only for a while, then a good cuticle oil works well as a daily routine. The Crème Abricot is better applied at night and possibly along with cotton gloves for the whole night.

To me some are to die for, and the summer collection one is great orange/coral I think !

The NARS duos look really pretty. I immediately gravitated to the lavender and orange duo but I've had Pokerface, the lavender one for years now, and I just got YSL's Corail Divin. I guess I'll set my sights on another two, but the other part of my dilemma is that I've almost already reached my self-imposed monthly quota. I've purchased 9 NPs so far and I can only buy 1 more. What was I thinking????

[COLOR=0000FF]I made the mistake of not applying the gel top coat with BL's PHP, but I did put it on with Dior's Lilac and the difference is unbelievable.  I've engaged in some of the exact same activities and the Lilac looks as fresh, two days later as it did on the day that I applied it.  I think I'll be using the gel top coat more now.[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]Are you doing purple in June for your birthday month because it's your favorite color???[/COLOR]
yup lol that is exactly why! ;) that el top coat sounds great but I like changing my nails too often. maybe I'll get it and only use it when I want my nails to last.
