One of my favorite hobbies! I recently switched back to regular polish and found my nails super brittle. This is everything I use to do my weekly manicures.

#1 Colors 🤩
My favorite colors across all brands!
I LOOOOOVE this color. The blue base with the orange, pink, and gold shimmer is unexpected but surprisingly lovely.
GTFO ICE
Almost looks like it’s glowing on your hands. Love the formula as always.
O-type Star
This is a very classic burgundy color in creme finish. 2 coats are sufficient and this is a lovely color for all seasons.
OPI Nail Lacquer - Malaga Wine 0.5 oz - #NLL87 - Red Nail Lacquer - OPIL-NLL87 - Beyond Polish
Fave Brands
My favorite indie brand, they have so many colors and the sales are so good!
Cracked Polish | No Fomo Indie Nail Polish
Another favorite, they often have great collections based on a theme, like Star Wars, or Avatar, the last Airbender.

Nail Care
Like a serum for your nails! I use this as the first coat underneath the Nailtiques.
Nail Strengthener - Olive and June
The best base coat! I used it to rehab my super weak nails.
Nailtiques Formula 2 Nail Protein 15ml
Fast absorbing and a huge bottle! I use this morning and night and have seen a huge difference in the strength of my nails. Use before Castor Oil for best results.
Cliganic Organic Jojoba Oil 100% Pure 4oz
I try to use this twice daily to rehab and moisturize my brittle nails, and it has made a world of difference. I use this after Jojoba Oil.
Kate Blanc Organic Castor Oil 2oz - Hair & Lash
Fast working and a huge bottle so its super worth it! I dab some on my cuticles and then use the cuticle pusher to remove and clean.
Cuticle Remover & Softener Liquid 16oz USA
Honestly, I thought this was a gimmick. How can it be different than any other remover? I was wrong, it's so good!! Removes so quickly. I prefer this one over the nourishing remover as the oils in that one can interfere with good polish adhesion.
PS For glittery polishes, I would still use acetone, as the glitter can easily rip up the foam inside.
Polish Remover Pot
Tools
Much more gentle and good for shaping. Perfect for use on natural nails.
Glass Nail Files - Amazon.com
Love this magnet for creating velvet nails. Very cost effective too.
Mean Green Velveteen Magnet
Lint free wipes are so essential to a clean mani!
650 Pcs Lint Free Nail Wipes Cotton Pads
This glass cuticle pusher is gentle, yet abrasive enough to really clean my nails for the best application. I use this with the cuticle remover liquid.
Boundary (Cuticle) Pusher
Hands down, one of the best cleanup brushes I've used. The bristles are firm enough to “scrub” the polish up without having to go back and forth multiple times.
