Re: Ombre Nails - WDYT?

  • i don't like these specific colors (i do not find the two pinks to be complementary to one another), but i do sometimes like them. i personally would not wear ombre nails (for professional reasons), but they are cute on others. for example, these nude shimmer ombre nails look beautiful:

    It's pretty, I like both posted looks.  Would I do them? No, I can barely polish my nails myself.  I'm all thumbs.

    I always love the way it looks in the pics but I do NOT have the patience to try that myself.

    Same here....I like them, but I definitely don't have the skills to pull that off. It would be a huge, messy disaster, I'm sure.

  • I completely side-eye nail art.   Can't tell you why, I just do.  I don't care for them.

    I am not crazy about the ones posted, though I think it might look neat on other people.

    Same here.  

  • I think they're cool.

    A different color nail on each finger reminds me of jr. high and wearing mismatched socks.

    A big old middle finger to you, stupid Nest.
  • Sometimes I get bored and try nail art, but it's almost never worth all the work for a manicure that will, at best, last just 3 or 4 days. I'd rather have something I can easily touch up.

    (That said, I did like a diagonal two tone thing last week, and it was fun. I couldn't stop looking at my nails, lol.)

    this is me exactly. I don't even bother polishing my nails any more I just keep them trimmed and neat and call it a day
