Chop, Chop, Chop - Shorter Nails

I cut and filed my nails down yesterday.  I didn't use to like them this short but the last couple of months I have preferred them this length.  Anyway there will be posts coming where my nails are longer, these post were done and photographed prior to the chop (I think there are 3).

First two, outside sunshine

:o( Cut Down!! :o(

I guess with the bad weather my nails have not been in too good a condition.  Mind you I have not looked after them as much as I could/should have!  It is cold here and the central heating is nearly always on so my nails have been suffering.  Lack of hand and cuticle moisturising has had a bad effect. My nails have been breaking at the most awkward of places and I have been using silicone paper and glue for about a month on and off on a few nails........

But enough was enough and I took to the clippers, yes the clippers and cut down my nails yesterday. :o(

So I felt quite sad and did not want too much colour and so I went for this pale old beauty of mine.  OPI Abalone Shell, a lovely sheer white with a purple shimmer to it.  Now I must look after my nails and start cuticle nourishing again.
