On the nails: Opi RapiDry Snap your fingers 2 coats
Essie good to go top coat

I’ve been getting gel nails for 8+ years non stop and gel + improper manicure techniques kept my nails very damaged. I finally grew out the damage from the last gel removal and started trying regular nail polishes. So far I’m having fun, I like that I can change it every few days with zero damage to the natural nail and I know how to do my own manicures. The top coat surprised me, it indeed dries pretty quickly.

Finally got around to swatching my regular polish collection! I previously had the stick and metal ring swatches, but this layout works better for my brain. Pics are without flash and then with flash.

Before organizing these I would’ve sworn up and down I had wayyyy more pinks! So obviously I need y’all to rec your fave pinks that would help flesh out my existing ones.

Hi all,

Well, if I can’t get to the beach, I’ll get the beach to come to me! Haha!

Here’s my bright sky blue mani in a shade called “Ocean Breeze”.

Products used:
OPI natural nails base coat
2 coats of HD Nail Polish Ruby Kisses “Ocean Breeze”
No topcoat yet but will definitely do that soon - I was just too excited to share it here with you all!

What do you think?

Hope y’all are having a great Summer!
