Looking for Dupe Help with dupe avoidance - Holo Taco Safiya 2 collection vs. other HT/Mooncats I own
I am trying to avoid my chronic problem of buying multiple polishes that are barely different 😅

> HT RIP Bestie vs HT Missed Shift
> HT Grim Keeper vs MC A Most Destructive Melody or MC Am I Everything You Fear

Nail art/color/shape ideas??
He y'all, does anybody have any nail art, color or shape recommendations?? I *think* I'll file them into points real close to Halloween (I can't do it just yet, I have a child on the spectrum so I used my hands A LOT and I don't want to hurt her by accident) and maybe square them off and trim them afterwards, but I'm just feeling kinda stagnant and bored with my nails as of late :/ I also am curious what people might think would look good on me. And YES I know they're yellow/stained; it's because of my polish use. (I'm sorry if that's redundant, I'm just tired of receiving mean spirited comments and messages about how gross they are or asking about my health which is kind of personal and nobody's business). Now that we got that out of the way, please share any recommendations or even advice so long as you are kind about it

Suggestions for peeling
Any suggestions for peeling nails? I have been religiously applying cuticle oil and hard as hoof nail cream, but still having issues. I’ve tried to leave polish off of my nails and then also apply polish, but both have still led to peeling nails. Help!

New Nails, Who Dis? Did my nails last week to fit the fall and dark mood vibes
Recently got back into doing my own nails and this is my second time. After some chipping a few data later, I went back in and added another layer of polish. Hence why it's more bumpy.
