I love painting my nails! I think this has been the longest beauty obsession of mine. Nail polish makes your nails look glossy, trendy and eye-catching. And you have such a huge variety of shades, formulas, effects and finishes to choose from!
You can use a nail polish just for fun, it can be a part of your everyday routine or a significant addition to your outfit. You may have to paint your nails because of your job or to enhance the natural beauty of your nails. Everything that works for you!
I really like to paint my nails but I love my nails bare just as much. Sometime I can paint and repaint my nails every week and sometimes I can have my nails with no nail polish on them for months. And that’s okay. But generally I do paint my nails once in a week or in a week and a half.
I have very strong requirements when it comes to nails polish. It has to last for at least 6-7 days. It it does not meet these requirements – I might not actually use it often or at all. I do not pay much of attention to minor chipping and tips wearing off as it is normal for any nail polish and this does not mean you have to immediately repaint your nails. You should paint your nails when you feel like it – then it is guaranteed to look good!
Well, so I have a question to you – how often do you paint your nails?

I’m like you, whenever I start painting my nails I do it about once a week or so, but right now I’m in the middle of a nail polish lazy train and haven’t painted my nails in about a month or 2. But now that it’s fall I think I’m going to actually put my fall colors to good use 😜

Hahaha 😀 Fall is perfect timing to try out some new shades and finishes – like deep burgundy matte or something 🙂 And Halloween is just right around the corner – why not to get some Halloween-inspired nail art? 😀

Once a week, and I’m almost never without polish! I prefer my nails painted, even if it’s with a sheer / nude colour. 🙂

Once a week for me lovely 🙂 A good top coat usually keeps it lasting pretty well!!! Great post – excellent question, interesting to see the results 😉 XXX

I didn’t always polish regularly but now I do once a week 🙂 Nothing lasts on my nails more than 3 days though 😦 What are your favorite brands!?

Well, in terms of the longest wear time – the combination of Essie base, nail polish and top coat stays on my nails for at least a week. I also like Anny nail polishes and OPI. In terms of colors and finishes – I prefer Illamasqua and Butter London, but these wear off in a bout 5 to 6 days. As you know I post one Chanel nail polish each week because I love the colors but it is very much a lottery because the wear time for these nail polishes differs from a couple of days up to a week – you never know 😀 Anyway, I recommend trying the combo of Essie products 🙂

I paint my nails every other day. I get bored of my manis easily and I love playing with different colours, glitter toppers, stamping, foils… 🙂
