Here's where everyone starts yawning while I bang on about Nailtiques again (it's Groundhog Day!). My nails used to peel quite badly, Nail Envy (Sensitive & Peeling formula) worked to some extent but my index & middle finger still peeled. A friend recommended Nailtiques Formula 2 and I've been using that ever since. No peeling at all now, ever.
You can buy Nail Envy or Nailtiques from Amazon, ebay, lookfantastic.com, beautybay.com etc. Just shop around for the best price. If you go for Nailtiques, make sure you get Formula 2 though, not Formula 2+. Good luck.
Oh, don't forget cuticle oil either.
Thanks for your helpJust ordered a small bottle from Amazon and ordered some cuticle oil too. Probably my own fault for not looking after my nails properly. Also been in work this week helping OH and it really dries my hands out... sanding buses and all the chemicals that I get on them!! Strong enough to melt the gloves it wear
definatley not good for the hands/nails
I'll let you know how it goes, thanks again
There Goes Trouble, I hope it improves your nails. The reviews I read seem really positive... my nails are the same atm, I've never seent them this bad. Theres no way they can get worse.Even if you stumble, you're still moving forward.0 -

I've fallen off the wagon and bought some rococo polishes after Tokki and Oliver's blog post. Can't wait for the pleather one to arrive.
I have a Rococo Gold leaf Flakie - splurged £25:eek: but it is soo lovely especially over black or a deep red!
The Etude House I think will be more pretty to look at in the bottle than on my nails as the hearts are very sparse so i will need to pick them out with an orange stick - way less than the minnie mouse one. But it is SUCH a pretty bottle!:DNoli nothis permittere te terere

Heads up ladies...look what I found in Poundland this morning!
They are branded 'chit chat' and say limited edition, but here they are side by side with genuine Technic Carnival and Mermaid and I challenge you to spot the difference! (the 2 chit chat bottles are in the middle, genuine technic is on the outside)0 -
Well have done the yellow and have to say its one of the worst colours I've ever tried to put on my nails. I used a Barry M and I'm not entirely sure it will see the light of day again. Oh and I've just noticed the thumb needs a bit of a clean up!!!
Anyway the results are on the flickr group:
