Do you paint you nails? If so, what color?

does anyone buff their nails?



I used to have a 2-sided tool for this. One side filed off the ridges and the other buffed them to a wonderful shine. I haven’t seen one like it for years.
I’m with those who hate the feel of fingernail polish. It makes me feel like my fingers are suffocating (although, when someone asked me to clarify this, I realized that it was that you don’t feel temperature changes as quickly through polish).
After breast cancer and lymph node removal one of the warnings was no commercial manicures (infection risk). So far that and my aversion to beauty salons has kept me from getting one.
I have had pedicures although I don’t usually splurge this way. When I do, I get a pink and white that’s a subtle french (so is that an “American” Wouldn’t want to ask for something that means some kind of bikini wax!?) polish because as it grows out the line of “no polish” barely show up.
