i had to smile when i read your post, i know it was posted a long time ago but, When we moved here i needed a new profession as the airline i worked for closed their office after we moved. So, i went to nail school! The very first night i was corrected and always smile now when i think back on it, " you can put paint on the wall but you polish your nails". Personally even though i retired last spring i do not polish my fingers, but my toes yes! Always a fresh french in the summer. If i know i am digging in the garden though i do admit to putting medical gloves on under my garden gloves, force of habit i guess from not having stained, etc hands when working on clients. smile

I have naturally long and strong nails. However, I do not take the time.... well have the time to paint them. I could really care less. If they break they break. I thought this was "FARMGIRL" forum.... not COSMO... just kidding ladies.... if I did paint them it would probably be some tint of pink.
I'm so busy I don't know if I just found a rope or lost my horse! |

Well, I do like to keep my nails painted. This week my nails are red and my toes are a pretty purple! But sometimes I also like the natural look. It all depends on my mood! God's Blessings, Megan aka Loretta Rae

What's a good non-toxic clear polish to use on nails -- anyone have a suggestion?
Also, what helps thick cuticles that want to cover the entire nail. I push them back with an orange stick and use solar oil on them but.....they usually win and look kind of icky. Suzanne |

| I've given up on painting my fingernails, they tear and chip too easily, I do paint my toenails though, a bit of pretty color on my toes :) |

My toes are always painted, but my fingernails...they don't last a day when painted. One round of dishes and that nail polish is downright chippy. So..i don't even bother!
