Jazz Up Chipped Nails! ... AKA Lazy Girl's Manicure

What do you do when you're nails are chipped? Well, sometimes (almost always) I have a habit of peeling my nail polish... usually the day after I have applied it. I don't know why-- I've tried EVERYTHING to make my nail polish stick
but my nails are just the resistant kind. LOL.

I recently did a sparkly crackle nail design and I was really disappointed the polish started lifting. So, true to form I started picking it off.  Usually it doesn't come off in one complete piece (like my ring finger in this picture) and there are bits still left over in often a weird zig-zag pattern.  This time, I had an "Ah-Ha!" moment.

So I pretty much just revamped my mani by throwing on a color that complimented my previous polish- in this case red- and voila! It looks almost brand new... and kind of funky like I planned it all along!

Try it out :)

    1. I used OPI's black crackle over sparkly nail polish (china glaze can't remember lol) and then when it chipped I just painted around it with red :)
