I love to feel me too, folks.
Always paint toenails and keep a soft pedicure.
EVERY night-- gently massage the feet and toes and their cuticle with tea tree oil and camphor-- then cover all that with lemon shea butter and a soft pair of 'footies'-- to wear all night, (or lose in the bedsheets).

Feet feel great and keeps toenails easy to cut, and "I" believe it helps to preserve the quality of 'polish job'-- (less peeling or chipping, I mean)

Something tells me this isn't a "Guy's Thread"!

Or, maybe it is! I painted over a lot of nails when I put up new gyproc last year. Does that count? Laughing

Try a pedicure, Reyn. You'll wonder how you've been doing your job for so long without at least trying one.

Well, I agree that taking care of one's feet is important. Especially when one is on them all day long!

I have your same thoughts Kicky. Can't stand them. I'm a huge women's feet fan but I just like'em natural. Oh! and I'm a feet sucker myself.

toenails, fingernails, they're there to be painted, it's their sole purpose of existence.

Painted toenails don't do it for me, they don't bother me either.. I'm neutral on this subject.

I'm with PortalStar on the no french tip, though. Solid colors only.

Although I like the way painted toenails look, I don't like the feel of painted finger or toenails, I feel like my nails can't breathe. But when I went back to work, I succumbed to pressure to polish my toenails, because I feel since every other female in the world (including little girls) now seem to be painting their toenails, unpainted toenails just looked too "undone".

But then I read an article that said that if you constantly have polish on your nails, especially toenails, because they spend so much time encased in shoes, they will yellow and look aged more quickly than if you don't. They said if you want to keep young looking feet/toenails, you should forego the polish as often as possible, so that the nails can breathe.

So I feel like I have a good reason not to. I just kind of buff my toenails so they look naturally pinker and shinier - almost like they have clear polish on them. And I have to say, my nails on fingers and toes look less yellowed and stressed than those of a lot of women (like my sister) who always, always have their finger and toenails polished.

Just something to think about- although I guess it doesn't matter if you always polish your nails- no one else will know what they look like without polish anyway.

I saw this and wondered how I missed this thread. Then I realized that it started years before I subscribed.
I like the look of my toenails painted. I just don't get my hands done too often because it doesn't last as long.
But I've wondered what people, especially men, really think about it. I felt a little strange about it in Europe and wondered if its an excepted thing to do in some countries.
