Aw, thank you, i'm quite proud of my nice little collection. 🤭

I wasn't sure what the colour is, since i didn't buy it. So i checked the bottle, and the first obstacle is that E bought it in France, so everything is written in French.
I eventually went to the effort of translating the French, and it turns out none of it is the name of the colour, so i'm not sure. I think the best thing i can do is show what it looks like when it's been applied. So i dug up a picture of when i tried it.

(Please forgive the sloppiness of the application in this picture, it's from the literal first time i did nail polish. )

That is a lovely color! And I have it! Too funny.

I got a manicure when I was in rehab. I wasn’t allowed to have my nail clippers, so they were long after a couple weeks. The rehab took the women to get mani-pedis, and they were supposed to take the men to get haircuts, but that was canceled. A few of us guys were miffed, because we were bored stiff and we really wanted to get off the property. We prevailed on the management to let us get mani-pedis as well, and
off we went.

I really liked the manicure, and I think my nails have never looked better. I didn’t get polish, as I have a physical problem with acetone fumes.

I didn’t get a pedicure, because I am weird about people touching my feet. I wasn’t allowed afraid I would accidentally kick someone if my involuntary reflex kicked in.

I saw a mention of cuticle oil above, and I think I need something like that. I get occasional problems with my cuticles such that they sometimes seem to wear away leaving the nail exposed. I can’t describe the pain. It’s not unbearable, but it’s bad enough that I can’t ignore it. In general my nails are very weak, which means I probably have a dietary deficiency. I have not had a manicure since, because I can’t seem to resist clipping them for long enough to have anything to work with.

One Christmas when I was wearing artificial nails, I had them done red with Christmas tree decals. So flashy and cheerful, but a bit in bad taste lol

Enjoy your mani-pedi!

I am always classy and never trashy hun
