As I was painting my nails earlier this evening, I was struck by a thought…
“Gee, I wonder what color the Dopers fingernails are?”
(okay, so I don’t have much of a life.)
So tell me, what color are your fingernails? Mine are “Sunshine,” by Avon Nailwear. “Sunshine” is more or less what it says it is. A bright, happy yellow. I think it looks neat.
My toenails are “Poseidon,” also by Avon Nailwear. “Poseidon” is kind of a seafoam green–an excellent toenail color, if I do say so myself. I’ve also got a really cool toe ring, with a little pentacle on it. I love toe rings.
Dear Bluepony, this is why I positively adore you. Damn, you crack me up!
dropzone: I’m a chick. Fingernail polish is interesting, okay? And what does emergency management have to do with anything?
To all the guys with flesh-colored nails: Let your SO paint them. Just once. I highly recommend doing this the way Kevin Costner did with Susan Sarandon in Bull Durham. My husband won’t let me paint his, though, so I am in the market for a volunteer…
The color is called Tempest, and it’s a dark purple, that can look a bit blueish in certain lights and/or with certain blue clothes I wear. It’s the one color I have been getting a lot of compliments on lately, so I wear it most of the time now. And, my left pinky is a different color, it’s a gold metallic color. It’s just me, what can I say?
Toes are also painted this purple at the moment, to match. Though I often paint them another color, just to be different.
And, drop, I am also clueless as to what you mean by your comment. Please elaborate.
My fingernails are painted “Cantaloupe” right now. Not surprisingly, it’s pale orange. I can’t paint my toenails, though; I have those squished-up little baby toesnails, and there’s insufficient surface area
Usually, they’re red, but today they’re sheer ivory with henna decals. My toenails are red though, and my big toes have gold decals on them. I get bored during commercials, so I usually do them when I’m watching the Indians on TV.
Well, all except one nail are uncoloured. My left thumbnail is a cotton candy pink right now. I’m thinking I might paint them green or possibly pastel purple.
they were a really light purple, almost periwinkle, for a couple of days. i scratched off the remnants today. i would like to go with a plum or electric blue, but own no nail polish.
p.s.- ladies, how do you get the nail polish so even? I can never do it right! it turns out gloppy and uneven. so i have to distress the polish. but random chippping looks nice too.
Hm, I only do my toenails since I can screw up on them w/out it really showing. My left foot is currently hot pink, my right foot bright orange. Pretty exciting.
