I always make sure to keep my toe nails painted; it helps to make them look that little bit prettier, because lets face it, most feet are just 'Gah!!'
My finger nails are another story. I'm always using my hands for tasks, so they chip so quickly and I just don't have the time for the upkeep.
But if I do fancy looking a bit more preened, the best choice of polish to go for is a nude. When a nude colour chips it can go unnoticed for a few days - perfect!
