Through the years, I have tried many things to get my nails looking salon perfect. I originally started with acrylic nails. The nail polish would stay on with out chipping and was glossy as well. The up keep on this was very costly with the way my nails grew. To save money, I took them off. I was horrified at how the acrylic nails had weakened my once beautiful natural nails. I decided right then to take care of my natural nails. This started my quest for the perfect nail polish to use on natural nails.

Not all nail polishes were created equal when applied to natural nails. Many would take too many coats to properly cover the nail. This would lead to them not drying correctly and getting marked up. Other nail polishes dried to a dull finish. No matter how many top coats I applied t could not attain the salon quality glossy finish I desired. The most important problem that needed to be solved was the one of the nail polish chipping. Many polishes do not chip when applied to artificial nails. I found this not to be true for the world of natural nails. Every nail polish I would try chipped horribly in one to two days max. What is a girl to do? I felt like I was doomed to spend every evening touching up my nails. Then I found the answer to my prayers.

Great article, thanks for sharing! I never wear nail polish on my finger nails because of it chipping etc. But now, I will try the polish you suggested.

Cool, I don't wear nail polish often but when I do I want it to stay a lot of time, or else I feel like it's in vain. Thank you!
