Huh (aka the Power of the Interwebs)

Jul 23, 2009 20:25

So I got girly the other day and painted my nails *FYI Jaimi, that 60 second polish- VERY YES!* and by today they had started to chip off my fingers.  Toes are fine, strangely but I guess the fingernails get bent more frequently.  I would've bet money on my having polish remover in the house somewhere, because I don't remember using it all.  However, can I find it? No.

I decide to search the web because driving 15 minutes each way for polish remover is silly.  Tried rubbing alcohol for s&g's, but no go.  On the beautiful interwebs, someone suggests using a fresh coat of topcoat or polish and then wiping away the old polish before the new layer dries.  Sounds crazy but I tried it.

My goodness, how could I have been a girl for 29 years and not known that?!?!?  It actually works!  I never go through a bottle of polish, so using more polish to remove old polish is a win-win.  Even better, using really old polish that's icky and separated to remove the polish on my fingers!

If this is old news for you, humor me.  I have no sisters and Mom never shared beauty secrets and most of my friends growing up are/were tomboys.  I lacked girly edumacation.
