Unpolished Natural Nails Decided to take a break from polish and extensions

Post image

Wanted to let my nails breathe a little and had a no polish manicure the other day.

Really loving how long my nail beds look after a cuticle cleanup!

good thing your nails are "breathing"

Your nails look so fresh and healthy! ✨

I’m actually right in the middle of a “breathing break” too — after doing my nails non-stop for nearly 15 years (!!), I always take 1–2 months off once a year to let them rest.

Feels so weird at first… but sooo good in the end! 💅💨

Thank you :)

Oh my gosh 15 years! Hahah I've been alternating extensions, gel and regular polish for 6 months straight and decided screw it and go au naturel.

Somehow I'm digging this look as much as I did when I had extensions or polish on.
