I always polish my nails no matter what season it is. I prefer some nude colors for my toenails and something bright for my fingernails.
I currently have a reddish/coral own my toes and finger nails. I use Jamberry Nail wraps. I have 2 on each hand because I peeled ofor one of my gel nails.
I like creams and earth tones mostly, but sometimes I'll go with white on my toes. For fingernails I like to try something fun like yellow, light pink or white during the warmer months. It just seems to work.
I like bright and fun colors like red, orange, magenta, yellow, etc...I do them year round. It's the leg shaving that pauses in the winter lol
I try to take care of my nails and paint them and keep them looking nice and healthy all the time. I do the same with my toenails, but I don't usually keep up with painting them in the winter. I just can't let them grow too long ever, they get too sharp. I at least do the general care for them, including cuticles, so they don't look too bad and they'll at least look healthy at all times.
It has been so dry, I haven't been able able to keep polish on my nails for more than a few days before it starts chipping and flaking off
I've been trying to have better nails. I've never had good nails. I have iridescent light purple polish on now. I like it.
Have you tried a topcoat? I use OPI start to finish. Polish stays on my toes a long time. Finger nails not so good.
Have you tried taking Biotin? I found it several years ago, started taking it regularly, and three months later, the free-edge of my nails was as hard as diamonds. And I could grow them as long as I wanted. I take the 100,000 mcg dose from Amazon, twice daily. It also strengthens hair.
My toenails are always a pink color, my fingernails vary. Mostly pink or red, but I will go seasonal. Green in spring, brown in fall, black for halloween. But that's just eight fingernails. My ringfingers are always a glittery silver, to call attention to my rings.
