So here we are on day seven (just counting on my fingers to check that's right haha) and it's still going strong! I hope you know how much this is driving me crazy...I never have the same nails for this long! All in all the mani is wearing really well. I'm only just starting to get the tiniest bit of tip wear, and when I say tiny I mean TINY! My nails grow very slowly so there's not a lot of re-growth showing yet which is great too...I reckon I could actually get a lot longer than two weeks out of one of these mani's from a re-growth point of view! There is a touch of ghosting though where the white has grown beyond my natural smile line. I really don't think it's noticeable to any normal person though, I think it's probably me just being really picky haha.
So anyway, on to the pics...
So what do you think? Good eh! To combat the hum drum of the two week French mani I might go crazy and do a crystal one next...something totally over the top :D
Speak soon xx

Wow, yours still look brand new! Weds will be 2 weeks with mine and they look terrible! I am so tired of my french manicure and I'm getting color for sure and I'm going tomorrow haha. I like the sounds of a crystal mani, you should definitely go for that!
ReplyDeleteHaha a girl after my own heart! What are you having done this time? Are you chancing the gel again or have you found something else? Hope you get better results this time :D I can't wait to do the crystal mani now...I'll post it when I've done it. Just have to ride out the rest of the two weeks first! You can't see but I'm impatiently strumming my fingers in an attempt to make it go quicker haha :D
ReplyDeleteI think your nails look great. I really like French manis and I think you've inspired me to do mine now. Do you think as a bloke I could get away with something like that?
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to do tomorrow! Gelish or Shellac?! I know one thing, I'm putting some color on!! haha...
ReplyDelete@ Charlotte Sparkle...Aw thanks! I've never done a French mani on a guy before...I've done regular mani's and colour ones, but I dont see why you can't have a french! As long as you like it! You never know, you might start a new trend :D
ReplyDelete@ Danisaddiction...Not sure, if the gelish didn't last though I think I would be reluctant to pay for another service. Defo colour though!! Whats your favourite? I'm loving coral atm, but usually it's pink for me :D
Yeah, I sort of am reluctant! My daughter peeled her gelish off last night...I thought this stuff wouldn't come off unless it was soaked! I am loving corals too! And nudes...I never wore them before. But my favs are definitely shades of pinks! I have a great color on my toes, it's purple panic by china glaze and it's neon and I LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteOoo I saw this on your blog! I may just have to get myself some haha. I love anything pink :D
ReplyDeleteIt looks perfect! Next time I do shellac I'll def chose a french mani rather than a red shade! After 3 days I had major nail growth...
ReplyDeleteAw thanks! My nails grow so slowly, I still get a decent amount of wear out of the colours too. The colour match on the french is perfect though, you can barely see it at all when it starts to grow out :D
