About toe-nail painting?

[UnderTheDesk]

I have just horrified my DP by explaining my ‘system’ for painting my toe nails to him. It’s the first time I have revealed this to him, and he is reeling as if I suddenly revealed that I eat small children for lunch.

So basically my system is this - I slap the varnish on in the general direction of my toe nails, and the next morning in the shower, I pick off any overspill that has gone on to the surrounding skin. I might use a nail brush if really necessary. Then, ta-dah! Perfectly applied toe nail varnish!

Honestly, am I the only person that does that and a blot on toenail-painting humanity, as my DP’s reaction would seem to imply, or is this sort-of normal?

That's what I do. I've just finish painting mine & will be going in the shower in a couple of hours!

I now my toe nails nude shade (actually it’s the only one I have left) much much easier

I do this too OP.

I've also found it works for fingernails if you wash your hair later on that day/the next morning. Something about washing my hair seems to get the excess nail varnish off my surrounding skin without me having to do anything at all!
