    I didn't stop until I was 18ish. But as soon as I stopped they grew fine. I also had that dreadful habit of biting the skin around the edge of my fingers too. Proper minger I was!

    After doing housework and cleaning the rabbit hutches today my lacquer got chipped so have just topped it up with another coat of $OPI Eve-y on the Eye and then with another coat of OPI Vampsterdam and it looks really good.

    Mmmmm sparkle sounds good, I need something to last for a few days, perhaps it should be a glitter. My Life's a Beige is massively chipped after household chores and no gloves. Have a couple of OPI DS polishes, will have a play later.

    Well i went for subtle sparkle;

    Two coats on NI Caogan Place, two coast of NI Royal Mews and then to ramp up the sparkle two coats of NI Electric Lane.

    It looks lush; although possibly may not dry until Christmas.

    I tried Royal Mews during the week and removed it straight away as it was a bit wishy washy and really didn't look much on my nails. With Caogan Place underneath it makes it much bolder and stronger.

    And i just love Electric Lane - it applies so easily and gives any colour a bit of va va voom.

    Tried to capture my shimery nails; but it was really hard to get the depth right.

    I haven't cleaned them up yet; and please please excuse my terrible short nails.

    Anyways with flash; and without but the are so much more twinkly than it appears.

    Your nails aren't a state! They are a lovely shape, length isn't everything ;)

    Your polish is lovely x
