One thing I haven't told you, is that I live with recurring angst, ever since my depression. Angst is (for me anyway) thoughts of feeling useless, not good enough and a freak. I have a history of beeing the black sheep of the family, an odd bird and so it still goes on. We were suppost to go to a fancy pre party today and then further on to the festival, with a bunch of happy people. But angst and other private circumstances made me choose to stay at home alone. At the same time I did not want this, I really need the silence and solitude. At the same time I would love to have my spouse at home with me, but he is extremely extroverted and is happiest among other people and I want him to be happy.
Shit happens and sometimes I need to put myself first, if I ever will become sane.
So silence and solitude is the way for me to pamper myself.
Another is at least trying to take care of my appearance.
I visited an old coworker in july. We went to the city were she lives and had some coffee and icecream (fika). She and her daughter forced me in an nail saloon. This was my first visit and I choosed only an acrylic nail strenghtening.
The blue nails are mine. I'm very pleased with the result and a month later, my nails are long and strong. I've been building the last weeks of my vacation and my nails are still perfect.
So how do you keep your nails? Do you have natural, gel or acrylic nails and what do you think about it?
Have a lovely saturday <3 p="">
My nails are so brittle. It doesn't help that when I'm stressed or nervous, I pick at them. I recently had Gel nails done for the first time. It was for my wedding. Almost a month later, the color is still on! They've grown out, and I've had to cut them because some of them cracked and split. Now I want to paint them a different color, but the gel polish won't come off.
SvaraRaderaIt is both fabulous and a pity. Fab, because your nails are growing and a pity that you can't change your colour. When I did my acrylic nails, they painted with common paint. Do you need a special remover or is the paint incorporated in the gel?
RaderaJag har aldrig haft någon sorts förlängning el dyl, inte vågat :) Mina egna naglar är oftast långa och starka och jag vill inte riskera att dom tar skada :)
SvaraRaderaEfter 2 månader så upplever jag inte att de tar skada. Men de växer så mycket så jag har jättelånga naglar och har blivit lite funktionshindrad istället. X-D
