MrsBungle I'm sure you've found it by now but I just realised I told you the polish name wrong - it's Essie Lacquered Up, not All Lacquered Up (that's a nail blog!)

Thanks Moms :)

So in conclusion, my hands do look a bit older than the rest of me but I have nothing to worry about Grin That's assuming the rest of me looks 30 of course, it's hard to tell!

Thanks valium Grin I notice people's hands - but not to make age judgements about them usually! I especially notice men's hands...mmm...can't beat a big rugged male hand.

They look like hands Confused Grin

Dear God, are we supposed to be worrying about our hands now as well as everything else? I don't think I have ever even LOOKED at someone's hands and thought they look like anything else but hands!

Nails I notice and yours are pretty OP Grin

To be fair Vivienne I would choose new hair or a new face over new hands!

I've just tried to take a picture of my hands; it's surprisingly difficult to get a decent shot!

There's nothing wrong with your hands. And you're right not many people have an obsession with hands. But I only meant I think it's not very important. I'd rather have lovely hair or face but not that bothered about hands.

Btw, my name is not meant to indicate that I think people in their mid 40s are or look like crones Grin

Vivienne I hadn't noticed many other people have an obsession with hands? I do though, prob because I'm obsessed with nail varnish and I would like beautiful hands to go with it.

I'd say mid 30's. but it's difficult to tell. I can't understand this obsession with hands. Though Madonna's are totally awful. Good excuse not to exercise!

Anyway, I think they look mid-40s too but I'm only 30 Angry

I'm guessing they're going to look like this by the time I'm 50?

When I was 15 my charming godmother told me I had the hands of a 30 year old :(

Thanks MrsBungle I'm halfway through painting them and it occurred to me my hands look somewhat older than the rest of me. It's Essie All Lacquered Up, the bestest red ever. That's only one coat!
