Nail Biting
This video showed 5 ways to stop biting your nails. I used the first method but instead of using a type of polish I used nail polish remover you still get the bad taste that discourages you from biting your nails. The polish would be better because you wouldn't have to reapply it at much as if you used nail polish remover. You just have to find the right trick for you and you can stop biting your nails to.

Gel nail polish works good for some people. I love my gel polish that has to cure under the lamp but the problem with a lot of gel polish I found it not as durable as regular but I love that its just a couple of seconds under a lamp and its dry and ready to go. I tried the no lamp ones there about the same except you don't need the light and they take longer to dry. I even tried the off brand ones. I got them at dollar general and I do like them better because the off brand ones are more like regular nail polish so its more the best of both worlds and its gains more durability.

fix and protect the nail
when all your polish is gone its a good time to fix the little groves and bumps in your nails. you can use the standard files or you can get one of these nail sanders. I like the nail sander better because it works fast and does a better job at sanding.
after sanding you will also want to but an base coat down to help protect the nail. and after you paint your nail you have to remember the to coat to lock in the design. and there are three different top coats. first fast dry I mostly use fast dry the faster it dries the less likely for it to mess up. then there's the standard clear coat that leaves a shiny coat and lastly matte that takes away all the shine. always remember the top coat.

Nail Art supplies
photo by Melanie |
this is a map of places you can go to go get supplies and cheap is good so never count out dollar tree. Walmart can have almost every thing you need with out the high price point. if you are looking for more higher quality there is always Sally's. Sally's has good high quality products but you have to spend more money. lots of stores will have clearances, so you can find some products cheaper. even if you go into dollar tree some times you can find name brand products for cheap.
