I'm starting this today!
I did unfortunately rip off my nails this weekend though. Ughhh. I hadn't done that in so long, like 9 months! I don't know what I was thinking. I hate having them this short. They do grow quickly though. I know a lot of people have trouble growing their nails so maybe I can help some of you out. I'll be post tips for nail care/growth during this challenge and you'll be able to see my nails grow.
First up, red nails! I went with Barielle "Elle's Spell", a very popular polish! I got it on sale from the Barielle website a while back. I have been saving this polish for a while and was happy to use it! I thought maybe I'd be disappointed but nope. How could I be when it's flakies?! It's a red jelly with flakies that shine mostly gold but you see the green a bit too. Gorgeous. I did three coats. If you have longer nails and want to avoid VNL you may want to do a different base coat and then 1-2 coats of "Elle's Spell".
I edited these with picnik but they are still true to colour. I thought it'd be fun to edit the pictures a bit more for this challenge.
