I have LCN gel hardner on my nails because they are so thin, so I don't use a polish.... but when I get pedicures they always wipe the nail with acetone first, put on 2 coats of the color, and then 2 coats of top coat. I only get a pedicure once a month, and the polish never comes off!

FYI... my manicurist once told me that if I ever polish my own nails to go across it not up and down. this prevents chipping ... and finish off sweeping the end of your nail across as well to prevent peeling..... good luck...

I haven't worn nail polish in quite some time. If I could just figure out why they are growing out and then down I would probably wear some again. It just draws too much attention to my nails with polish and doesn't look so good right now.
I'll just continure to keep them much shorter. It's easier for working around the house, yard and sewing anyway. ....LOL Makes me wonder why I even typed this....LOL
