frandroidAlright I got that manicure. Nail care, cuticle care, nail polish, nail gel, and a clear coat. They're so smooooooth. I love it. The nails are still quite long even after being cut. They should be quite something in a month if I don't break anything... I might get colour next time. We'll see. I had some deep burgundy once, I could go back for that kind of colour.
Also an interesting development with having long nails: I used to gnaw at the skin around some of my nails, but now I just kind of dig my index fingernail or my middle fingernail into the skin on the inner side of the thumbnail, or dig one nail under another nail, and that gives me as much satisfaction while destroying less skin. Also I love scratching my scalp or my skin with these nails.
ETA: Oh, I understand what French manicure is for now, other than being fancy... with the clear coat you see all of the nail ends' imperfections... FC covers all that up.
