I stopped biting them a few months ago and have discovered the joys of nail polish.What's your favourite way of distracting yourself?
mine is doing my nails as well lol x

My parents bought me the Red Carpet Manicure (gel UVA set) for Christmas so had a little go tonight.
Really struggle growing mine lately so looking forward to having nails to be proud of again.
I'm a biter, i used to always get nail extensions but because i got promoted to Sous Chef i can't have long nails anymoreI have baths to distract me or do some cleaning. My house is sparkling whenever i'm on a diet lol x
You have failed only when you quit trying. Until then, you're still in the act of progression. So, never quit trying and you'll never be a failure.

Same with the lovely clean house here! I've tried knitting, crochet and making felt toys to keep my hands and mind busy but I'm terrible with concentration so I end up with very strange patterns...

Nails here too! I am obsessed and have a HUGE collection of nail polish (possible 200+). Today I am sporting fuschia neon nails with gold 'studs' on each ring finger in preparation for NYE. I do my nails at least every other night, if not nightly, it is a great distraction! I used to be an OPI only girl but at the minute I love Illamasua (Google Illamasqua Obsess, it's what I'm wearing now) and I'm also getting into indie polishes - Dollish, Pretty & Polished, Darling Diva and so on.
I'm that sad, I even have an Instagram account which is predominantly used for nail pics!

I do mine whilst watching TV so they're dry before bed. The way I see it is that I can have good nails, hair and make-up regardless of my weight, haha. I love all things beauty, a bit obsessed really!
You should give it a go, little things like having painted nails can put a smile on your face![]()

A girl after my own heart :-)
Must admit I love getting out of bed with painted toes as it sets me up for the day.
Making a concerted effort with my nails, sporting a lovely plum colour which is brighter than I would normally go but it's growing on me.
Treated myself to the Ciate nail advent calendar before Christmas so shall dig that out from under the tree and have a look.

I had the Ciate calendar too! Loved opening it every day![]()

Looking forward to experimenting, may try the Caviar on my ring finger for NY. Not going anywhere but what the heck :-)
