Mommy friendly nails

I never used to have any problem growing my nails before but ever since the baby I have been washing my hands so much that my nails started to peel off and became very brittle.  Nail polishes didn't last long because my nails would just chip so I didn't bother with a manicure - didn't have time for that anyway.  But the week before Vegas I really wanted to have pretty nails so I went to a nail salon and asked for Acrylic fake nails (which I haven't done since I was 17 so I was pretty scared) While I waited for the nail lady another customer told me that she gets this process Shellac and it's amazing.  It's basically a gel overlay that protects your own nails and the coating lasts about 14 days with no polish chipping.  I thought this was a great idea and did it and boy was I amazed by the result!  My nails didn't break and the polish stayed in tact until I got a fresh one applied again few days ago (My nail lady wanted me to be more fun for summer so she applied this transparent glittery polish, which I love!).  The Gel removal was easy too and there is no drying time so you are in and out your nail salon pretty quick.   Now I can enjoy nice nails and still cook and wash my hands as much as I want and needed.  Try it!
