Orly blazing sunset is a nice neon orange. See, this reads warm to me, like leaning pink 🤷♀️ lol. I need a cooler orange. I just gotta keep an eye out. I love the look for summer. A few of these look promising!

Kida , I am using Seche Vite but it's a new-ish bottle that's not even 1/4 used. I had this problem with a brand new Seche Vite. I'm guessing the bottle had just been sitting on the shelf a while? I got annoyed with it. I switched back to my Sally Hansen Insta-Dry and it's been working just fine. The shrinkage was the reason I switched from Seche Vite years ago, but thought I'd try it again.

ok I want to start taking better care of my nails, sort of a dumb question... do you need extra stuff to for lacquer? or do I just buy a bottle and put it on?
I think I accidentally bought something once that requires the UV light lol.

I think I accidentally bought something once that requires the UV light lol. I would definitely get a base coat (I use OPI Nail Envy, but there are lots). It can help the polish last longer, and help protect your nails from staining. A quick drying top coat (Seche Vite, or the red sally hansen are good) to help protect the polish There are also formulas like Orly Breath that say they do not require a top or bottom coat, so you can just put the lacquer on and be done. There are gel polishes that require a lamp to cure, so if you don't want that avoid anything with gel in the name (I think the bottles are normally opaque as well?) And definitely not a dumb question, I am amazed at how much there is to know about just painting your nails.

Attachment DeletedAttachment DeletedGoing to a Derby party this weekend and I really want to get a fun manicure. I'm wearing a black and white dress with red roses. I was trying to find some gel strips with roses but haven't been successful. I like both of these and I guess I could also just buy rose nail stickers and do accent nails. Any other ideas?

If there's a chance you could go to a nail artist, it would be so pretty to take a photo of your dress so they can match the patterns! Sorry, that was no help whatsoever.

First time to the nail salon since Covid, as a splurge for being fully vaccinated. Don’t remember the color names.
