Remember I told y’all that I would keep the manicure to test for wear?
I did my nails Thursday night. I worked Friday and had the weekend off. These are the pics I took Sunday morning:
Yeah. And that’s my left hand, which doesn’t show as much wear as my right. The glitter nail on my right hand is already coming up. I will chalk that to the glitter layer being thick, but this chipping nonsense?
Basically, I got about the same wear time out of this gel manicure that I get out of my standard polish. It was pretty while it lasted, though!

Wow, I’m really surprised that it only lasted a few days. I really like the color though. It looks really nice on you, too bad it doesn’t last as long as regular nail polish.
Yeah, I had hopes that it would be a long lasting manicure even if it wasn’t my ideal. It may be different if I get it done, but I am pretty turned off by it.
I meant, too bad it doesn’t last longer than regular nail polish…I thought that was the point of gel nail polish – it was supposed to last longer.
That’s too bad 😦 I tried Formula X from sephora and it lasted two weeks despite me doing a lot of lifting and other things with my hands (I was volunteering at a festival – so you can imagine how much I used my hands). Love your post too – super fun to read! Can you please review Vain Pursuits? I’ve heard a lot about them lately, all my friends are talking about them.
Vain Pursuits? Not familiar with them. I’ll look into it. Thanks for reading and the suggestion!
