A little I guess, but I love it because it looks so pretty. Nail art without the hassle. I have to keep my nails polished these days after taking acrylic nails off after over 10 years of having them, my nail flake and break easily so any polish seems to help a little....but I only have limited time and patience so these polishes are great for me.

..oh, I've just googled it, I hadn't heard of it before...it comes out that way by itself..?..how clever...I've only had acrylic nails once because someone gave me a voucher as a birthday gift once but yeah, it was a nightmare to get them off..my nails weren't quite the same for around two months afterwards...I'm not really one much for fingernails anyway..(I'm more of a toenail person lol..)...I don't have any problems growing them but in general they irritate me and I keep snapping them off....there's nothing worse than constantly scratching yourself and drawing blood...it's one of the worst feelings ever...

You paint it on then hold a magnet over the top for the pattern....I have to have matching fingers and toes but because I interview a lot of people and have to point things out in contracts etc...I feel a bit weird if my nails are all broken and nasty so I keep them painted. I loved my acrylic nails but when Matthew came along the expense and time to get them done were low on my priorities....

..yeah, I can understand that you have to/want to have nice nails in your job...Annie, if you want less time and easy taking off, have you tries nail foils..?...there are so many patterns/colours etc and they really are so easy and so removable...the 'mirrored' ones are fabulous as well because you could never get that effect from a polish...

I haven't tried them....do they last though?

..I've only ever used them on my toes and I know that fingers get much more use lol, so maybe don't last so long...but with my toes they have never chipped or anything and I've had to remove them myself just because my nails have grown so much..and that's also when I've been on holiday/in the sea/pool etc...I use the Minx ones only because they were the only ones to do them at one time but they are quite expensive...I know a friend of mine uses much cheaper ones and they're just as good/long lasting....

..the silver mirrored ones look amazing...

[AnnieK]

Ooohhhh...I'm going to get some today. I've just had a quick look and you can get Christmas ones I'll let you know how I get on. Thanks for the tip

Do you have your own UV Lamp Annie?

I had one years ago when I was at college, it had hardly been used and I ended up selling it, wish I hadn't now

Wow that's really cheap, might look into getting another one

I think I sold mine for £100 about 6 or 7 years ago but it did have a lot of extras with it as well.

i had a good splurge at body shop a few weeks ago got a couple of shower gels and another body lotion when the other ones i have run out

[Josy]

I was in Discount UK & B&M yesterday looking for a basin and picked up a couple of things from each, A nice little manicure set with a case from discount UK and also a massive pack of nail files and then just before I reached the checkout they had nail polish on a display and I picked up a blue denim effect one, haven't tried it yet.

B&M had a nice goldish nail polish for £1.50 so I took that and some nail polish remover from there.

[Josy]

Annie have you heard of or tried the ModelsOwn Hyper Gel nail polish?

http://www.modelsownit.com/products/...ollection.html

I'm wondering whether to try them or not.

...is gel nail polish anything like acrylics in that it makes your nails weak/brittle..?...I've been using foils on my toes for a while now and they give a great finish and look lovely, especially the mirrored effect ones...

It all depends on how it's removed I think Ammi but yeah they can end up in a bit of a mess due to the harshness of the removal process, that may differ depending on removes them though.
