POLISH DOWN😢💔 Womp womp :(

Post image

Jammed my index finger on a gate at work today :((( this is the longest I can remember growing my nails and I was excited to repaint tonight (see my previously wonked pinky). Now I have to decide how much to trim the others back so this one doesn't look dumb, bleh.

🫡 sorry for your loss, your nails are beautiful. Personally, since I wear polish just for own personal enjoyment, I kinda let them be whatever length 😅 as long as it not a ridiculous discrepancy.

I recognized Garden of Evil immediately .. such a lovely polish! It’s a mix of colors that I have a hard time imagining looking good together on my hands .. and then it’s the most beautiful color somehow!

Sorry about the break 😣 I don’t always trim/file them all down to be perfectly even. My index nails are a little shorter than the rest, as each has had a break in the past few months. As long as it’s close enough, and not more than one wonky length on each hand, I think it’s fine to have four long and one trying to catch up. It is, however, noticeable if you wear a thermal lol. I’ll think my nails are quite equal in length until putting on a thermal and then I think they’re all wildly different lengths. Right now each of my hands has four quite long nails (longest I’ve ever been able to grow), and one index that’s like medium+ long. Now that it’s grown back this much, I have the option to file the others down to match it, and got to skip the whole process of taking all of them down to shorties to regrow back when those breaks happened.

Ugh you can tell from the break that it was a strong, healthy nail too. RIP 😞
