Whenever I get a manicure, the nail polish chips off within a day or two, especially when I work. I work in retail hanging clothes and I think the hangers make the polish chip off faster. I know nail polish lasts much longer on acrylics but I want to avoid getting acrylics because they damage my real nails so much when I get them removed. What can I do or use to make the polish last longer? I have a basecoat and topcoat (made by Orly) that are supposed to help the polish bond to the nail and last longer and resist chipping but it doesn’t really work well. Any suggestions?
I’m not gonna wear gloves or anything on my fingers…that would just defeat the whole purpose of nail polish in the first place. Plus it would get all hot and sweaty.
