This is both a rec and an anti-rec. Of course picking off your polish ruins the manicure you have going, so itβs almost purely an anti-rec, if it wasnβt for those times when you peel off the whole thing in one piece π€€
Everyone randomly loves to compliment my press on nails. stops me from biting my nails and i dont have to deal with passive aggressive nail techs scolding me. When they fall off (or i peel them) i just throw on some new ones, nbd. im not pretending they look as good as acrylics but for $8 i do not care
My ceramics teacher in high school told me that she was a really bad nail biter/picker and she started paying for really nice nails to break the habit. I am a really bad skin picker around my nails and I use tegaderm to make it so I canβt pull or pick on the skin around my nails.
