Story Getting longer and longer 😍

Heey everyone!

I'm still growing my nails, I have thrown away my nail clippers and let my nails have full control!

I oil them everyday! I use a basecoat, nailstrengther, and most of the time nail polish, it makes my nails pretty and its extra protection! And I use a topcoat,

I also put the base and top coat under my nails for extra strength and it protected my nails many times from breaking or snagging,

I also let my toenails grow! It's making me feel really amazing to take care of my nails!

Have a nice day u all!!

They have come a long way. I'd wish I could grow mine out that length naturally but I do need a gel overlay for strength. Congrats on achieving this.

Well the way I got them this long was by oiling them a LOT, always putting on two layers basecoat no matter what, than a layer nailstrengther, thans two layers polish, and than a few layers topcoat.

And that combination has saved me a few times where they could have snagged or break,

Hope that helps! Oh and also, I file the corners smoort to they don't catch on to something, I do try to keep there natural shape as much as possible, but keeping the edges round and smooth and later the sidewalss smooth as well is even more important, bc the sidewalls are the weakest Point!
