I appreciate the dilemmna of the broken nail that gets caught in everything, including your hair!The worst thing is when it grows out enough to snag on things - like clothes - but not quite enough to cut off clean. Drives me crazy!
I've always had issues with my thumbnails doing this - I think it's probably the legacy of being a nail biter for so long. But this time I have a break on my index finger as well. Weather could definitely be an issue. I don't think lack of protein in my diet is a problem, but I might add some calcium to my daily supplements to see if that helps.
As you know I've started having similar yellowing issues, so there could be something to that theory. Seems like we're 'nail problem twins' CC!
I've been changing my polish twice a week - three days of wear is about as much as I get from most polishes, so I usually have bare nails for a day a week. With this breakage I might have to cut down too. My own unused basket is getting fuller rather than emptier at the moment, so I don't want toI wasn't planning on doing exclusively green for March, but I think I have almost enough untried greens to do that now!
The sparkle collection is out already?? I really want to give my SA the buisness and buy them from her but she hasn't mentioned these polishes yet. I don't know if I can waitNice! Thanks for sharing Kimibos
Edited to include: Darn you two Kimibos & Naughtyp! I thought I was done and was trying to ignore this---No willpower whatsoever. I ordered a few Zoyas after having ordered the entire new Dior Sparkle collection! I guess I now have PIP too.
I think PIP is short-lived, so enjoy it while it lasts!!
Yes HOBI've been trying to do the same thing! I moved them all up to my top drawer so I don't even go looking at other colors. I have to stay focused!
Dark short nails are my favorite! I actually LOVE short nails. I'm in love with that color now I want to put mine on.
That's an awesome green! Perfect for March.

Have you tried Lush Lemon Flutter? That stuff is amazing! I put it on every night before bed and let it "soak" in while I'm sleeping. I also use Julep cuticle oil at work since its a roller ball and it's fast absorbing unlike a lot of cuticle oils.< --- Is it weird that I really rock like that when I have attained PIP?
I think my issues are due to the Instant Artificials nail hardener I was using. I think it's responsible for staining my nails and just made them more brittle. But others have said it works great for them in reviews, so it just may not agree with my nails. My hands have also been drier because of the cold weather, so that may be a factor as well.
I'm thinking about investing in Dior Creme Abricot for my cuticles. They've been very dry even after moisturizing. I know the creme is expensive, but the reviews are great from what I've read. People also say it lasts a very long time, like up to a year. That'll make the cost more like $2/month. I think it's worth it.
