What colour should I paint my toe nails? I don't want to but feel I ought to.

I never paint my toe nails but now feel I ought to (being a grown up and all) but I have no idea what colour to do. What's the least offensive, easy to maintain, hardwearing colour?

If I did white it would just look like a fungal inection.

Currently I have one black painted toe nail.

This is because I intend to do my finger nails in chrome for goth clubbing this Saturday, & am checking whether it covers better over naked nail or black undercoat...

Otherwise, undercoat in black (makes nearly all colours look darker, richer & generally more cool) then go over it in whatever you fancy.

Pale nail varnish, pah. Why would you faff about just to have nail coloured nails?

millie you can get stuff to paint on

takes about 12mths dedicated painting tho

im sure its safe for bf - obv youd have to check

even tea tree oil works apparently but you ahve to stick with it

i have got purple today. i love blue toenails which suit me very well and makes my feet look a bit less pink.

Nailpolish ... are you talking about Propolis N or something different. Have tried it before and if it's safe for b/f then I'll certainly have a shot at it again. Toentail fungus = yuck, yuck, yuck!!

millie im not sure what its called

ask at pharmacy

if its not safe for bf then try tea tree oil. someone hre on mn said it worked for them (cnat remember who)
