Now for something less serious

I was fussing with my nails today - my nail polish is peeling, about 3 days post-manicure - and I thought of something from my childhood: peel-off nail polish.

Does anyone else remember this? Typically it was under the "Tinkerbell" brand, and usually came in 'sheer pink' - kind of like a tinted top coat, or sometimes even in "actual colors" like pink and some shade of peachy-orange.

Fun stuff. I think I painted my nails (and peeled off the polish) at least a few times a day! I kind of wish that they made it for adults - that would be quite fun. :-)

Okay ... so I checked it out, and it turns out that they make it for "grown-ups", too!


Sure it's all nice and environmentally-friendly, and "good for the body", but I refuse to give up my lust for Chanel Nail Polish, especially in the classic Vamp shade. And I'm not parting with my OPI - Lincoln Park After Dark either!

OMG! I used to have some of that stuff, but mine was green. I don't remember the brand though. I also had some of that crackle nail polish. I hated that stuff.

That Lincoln Park After Dark is really pretty.

I remember the crackle nail polish - that was some really, really weird stuff, indeed!

The Lincoln Park After Dark is my color of choice for my toenails - I usually go with a pink or beige on my fingernails, kind of a balance between the colors.
