My two minute manicure
The other day, I got a nice colorful manicure. By the third day, I chipped some color and had to remove it hastily in the morning before going to work.
I was running errands that day during lunch. I remembered that I’d heard about a nail strengthener called Opi Nail Envy and went to a beauty supply shop to pick some up (I got the Sensitive & Peeling variation – there are several different types for different sorts of problem nails, or just normal nails). I got back to work, took it into the bathroom and hastily put two clear coats of it on my nails.
When it dried, it looked astounding. It’s clear, but there’s sort of a shimmer to it that really pops. I got several compliments on my nails that day. My favorite was: “Oh, did you just get a fresh mani?”
Yeah, in the ladies’ room after lunch.
This is quite simply the quickest, easiest way I know of to have great-looking nails – and do something good for them at the same time.
