What are you doing for your Nails?

I have a regular nail tech and I think your idea of a trial is great.

Brides get hair and makeup trials, right? Why not nail trials too?

Subtle and Simple with a lil Ombre Glitter

View quoted message I order off clearly.ca, I pay roughly $95 for six months (They come in sets of six so I can’t go any smaller) some of the other brands are a little more expensive but if you’re a regular contact lens wearer I would definitely recommend talking to your optometrist about switching over. Clearly operates out of Vancouver and always ship priority so I literally get them the day they ship 90% of the time. They also often have deals running so you can get things cheaper.

View quoted message Wow really? I’ve been told that dailies were best for moisture, what does it cost you for a 3 month supply? I just paid 180$ for 90 days

View quoted message Yeah that would make sense too. I’ve been to nail salons in the malls multiple times and they always hurt a lot afterwards, so I can definitely see it being the combination.

View quoted message No problem! My nail tech is super creative with gems, we always try come up with something unique

View quoted message Ohhhhhh i like the middle; where the jewels are on her pointing finger. Thanks for the inspiration.

View quoted message Switching to monthly’s honestly made my eyes feel so much better. They don’t dry out anywhere near as much! I’ve had contacts for like 5/6 years now but because I until last year had fast food jobs I could never get fake nails so I’ve only had them like thrice and I gave up

View quoted message Haha certainly takes a lot of practice! My one coworker told me she spent 40 minutes at the eye place trying to take them out and put them back in 😆 one night I slept in them and had the hardest time trying to get them out, I wear super soft dailies! It can be really frustrating for sure :p

View quoted message That’s cute, and you can incorporate your colors into the writing and gem!

View quoted message It was probably a bit of the tech's part and I have found out since I have allergies to some adhesives (might have played a role, not sure).
I am glad you have such an awesome tech though. :-)

View quoted message Here’s some more ideas, with the gems anyways!

View quoted message I adore that as well! If you don’t have a regular nail tech you should definitely get a trial done, because not all are equal in experience with the fades

View quoted message That’s awesome that you have such strong nails, I certainly don’t! Haha. Whoever did you Nails definitely did them wrong though, I’ve found that whenever I go to one of the nail salons that my nails hurt really bad, and that’s because they are way too rough. I’ve been going to my nail tech for over a year and a half and not once have I left with my nails hurting. That sucks that you had that experience

I'll just be doing a subtle white glitter ombre, coffin shaped. I might incorporate our theme colors on one finger but havebt decided yet 🤔🤔

View quoted message Some people can manage it! I just can’t at all lol I almost take my eye out constantly

View quoted message Some people can manage it! I’m just super clumsy and almost stab myself in the eye every time I try lol

I like pretty neutral colours on my fingers. I recently saw a picture with "I do" written on one of the nails so I'm thinking of that!

Not a clue yet for colour but I want bling bling on my ring finger nails similar to your picture but more into the cuticle part.

I usually wear UV gel nails with an almond shape. I choose my colors based on the season.

I love this ombre French look:

Wedding Nail Idea

Not sure yet

The plan is just using my natural nails with a nice mani and maybe a coloured nail polish. I have super strong nails so a bit of length isn't a problem (not exaggerating...genetics, no one on my dad's side of the family can use a general emery board...has to be a metal nail file...lol)
I tried fake nails once as a trail run for prom and they hurt so much I had to get them removed the next day. Could not sleep at all that night.

View quoted message Yup sometimes it’s better safe than sorry 😆

View quoted message That makes sense.. I recently took mine off before getting contacts so I’m going to have to learn to put them in with long nails. I’ve found that I can get them out using my middle fingers and roll them out.. if that makes sense? It’ll be a challenge but I need my long nails 😩

Thanks Lyla! Do you (and others) find gel nails last awhile? A normal manicure lasts MAYBE a day before it starts chipping

View quoted message That’s awesome, love the bright colors ! 😍

View quoted message Thanks love! Yeah they are a little “extra” haha but they actually last a long time, just gotta be careful not to nick them on everything haha

View quoted message Thankyou I definitely love the nude colors too!

I was going to get fake nails. However not used to them and I do a lot of hands works that makes them difficult. Also someone mentioned contacts.

Will just get a regular mani and pedi.

View quoted message Oh wow I didn't even remember about my contacts. Glad you mentioned it here.

Those are pretty! I considered going fancy and getting the gel nails but I can’t take my contacts out when I where them. I know some people can but I almost take my eye out when I have fake nails. So for me it’s not worth the money I’ll pay when literally that night I’m going to have to file them down to a stump. I’m going to just get a normal manicure, either in a nude or in a sapphire blue to match my ring.

I just had a nice manicure with red nails and a silver ring finger.
