1) I trimmed my nails completely a few days ago because a some fingers were getting thin, bendy, and/or peely. Also, it was getting troublesome to type on my keyboard at work, so off with their heads!
2) I finally got a hold of some cuticle oil/butter from Lush and some proper Biotin vitamins. More about this in a post to follow.
3) I've been waiting so long for this theme and sushi nails had to happen!

The jist of things is to paint your thumb nail the dark color, your index, middle, and ring fingers white, and then your pinky finger green. The fish pieces themselves are pretty straight forward. The dotting for the eyes and the eye lashes were actually the most challenging part of this mani because you had to be really precise with your placement, application of pressure, and how much polish is actually on the brush (don't want to glob it all on there).
Again, this has been really fun to wear and its gotten me compliments from friends and strangers alike!
Look at my white polish, all battle-hardened. It's seen some action, man, and it doesn't want to talk about it. |

These are soooo cute! I know I've told you already, but I love how much detail you put into them. I have to keep my nails short because I have terribly weak nails all the time anyway, so I find short nails inspiring :)
