I guess guys can answer this too....

What is your favorite nail polish for your toes or finger when you get a mani/pedi? Do you stick to same color on both, add glitter, gem stones, designs, etc? My friend chooses a different color every time. She has no favorite but it's always fun to see what she has.

Mine are : OPI big apple red for my toes and OPI bubble bath( kind of a pink nude) on my fingers. I generally just have natural fingernails though.

So what's your fav?

    My fingers & toes've to, match! I only wear neutral colors, so that they won't clash with; my different clothing/accessories! Otherwise if I wore turquoise nail polish, I'd have to only wear; bluish clothes that week! Copper looks, best on; me & I also love pizzazz so, Revlon use to; make scented nail polish & my, favorite was: "Beachy" (Gold color) for the Summer, "Linen" (Vanilla color) for the Spring, "Lavender Soap" (Lilac color) for the Autumn & "Spun Sugar" (Silver color) for the Winter! I believe that they're currently discontinued, I've the unfortunate luck of loving what; other's don't & thus, I am always; searching for replacements! Most people don't consider, lavender to; be a neutral color though but I, do because it's many, different colors in 1; such as: pink, blue, purple & grey! <3

    I do my own.. I have only had 2 mani/pedi professionally done in my life.. My fingernails are long.

    Each time I do my nails and toes they must match in the color I chose for this week. The only time they do not match is when I do french manicures in the spring.

    Revlon Colorstay Gel Envy Diamond Top Coat is my secret weapon to making my color last.

    I'm going to get some of that. I wash my hands so much ( nurse) that my polish only lasts if its gel.

    I still haven't found nail polish that won't crack and be ugly in a few hours after I apply it.. seems there's not one that can withstand what I do.

    So if you know of a nail polish that will last through my day I'll happily try it. Oh and I once tried acrylic nails and gel nails and that *kitten* was so horrible, I couldn't use my hands and I kept hurting myself cause of them.

    My favorite right now is Essie The girls are out, it's a sparkly hot pink. I do like to switch up the colors each time (I do my own). Most of the time it's something blue, red, pink or purple, and sometimes black. Just plain painted, no extras as I just can't seem to get it right.

    Excuse the obviously fantastic manicure job, but I loveeeeeee this color. I'm not sure what it's called, but it's by Milani, and I swear I was feeling sexual feelings while I was putting it on last night. (It's like a wine/cranberry sort of color. The picture doesn't do it justice). And I use Seche Vite base coat and Sally Hansen top coat. Does that Revlon Top Coat dry fast? That's most of the reason I use the Sally Hansen haha

    Have used Sally Hansen and Essie most of my life. For special occasions - depends on how bankable I need them to be (level of fuss). Lol

    Colours: Natural, Nude, Peach, Pinks, Reds, Gold, Glow in the dark ... Autumn colours wash me out :'(

    Prefer my nails and toe nails matching.

    I used to be really in to nail polish, at one point I had over 500 bottles, I have tried so many different brands, from high end to drug store and indie makers, my favorite brand to this day is still OPI.

    I wear polish (usually black or vermillion) on my left pinkie nail in memorial of my friend Sally who passed away from stomach cancer. She was such a strong lady and a great mentor. When ever I look down at my hands,which is mostly when I am down. I see the reminder of Sally telling me "awww you got this, now move it toots!"
    I am currently favoriting my blue ice this month.

    A few weeks ago I got a manicure that involved dipping my finger tips in a powder. It looked great and lasted for weeks before it started chipping. The downside was that I couldn't get it off cleanly with ordinary polish remover and I wasn't planning another manicure so soon.

    I get gel polish at the salon. It lasts for 3 weeks and looks as good as day one. My favorite is Daisy gel polish #559. Its called Teenage Dream. Looks Barbie Pink.

    I've never had a pro mani/pedi. I keep my toes painted, usually purple or magenta. But my fingers haven't been painted in probably 3 years.
    I'm not so good at girling.

    I'm struggling to paint my fingernails even if I'm ambidextrous. I also love that color
