Etsom·ni·a (/etˈsämnēə/), noun, 1. a sleep disorder caused by obsessive Etsy browsing. 2. The surprising arrival of weird handmade merchandise ordered when one is only half conscious. (True story.) 3. An excuse for me to be an obnoxious, snarky New Yorker once per week.
I’ve been wearing the same nail color for a very long time. It’s time for a change!

What wonderfully creative nail wraps! By shopnaavaPardon me…For the last year, my nails, which always grew in strong before, have been splitting and breaking. After reading the reviews, I ordered some of this stuff today. Fingernails crossed! By KNIBeautyAndBathI love M&M’s, but these nails just look diseased.I am a fiend for thermal nail polish, which changes color based upon its temperature. It tends to create an ombre effect that I just love, and this color combination is wonderful! By CrystalKnockoutThis practice nail art hand is going to give me nightmares. Nail stamping tool. I’m learning a lot today! By MakynailThese stickers are to nails what these things are to pants.Chrome-finish nail polish is another fave of mine. Your nails have to be completely smooth, but it’s really snazzy and eye-catching. By DIYCreativeStudioA still from the upcoming horror film, “Edward Test Tube Hands.”I so wish we had these nail decals for this year’s Drag Invasion costume! (We went as Herd Immunity, sponsored by MooDerna.) By shopsawyerandscoutForgive my indelicacy, but how do you go to the bathroom without drawing blood? Or worse?Please see my previous comment for what I think happened here.
Remember how I told you that my Dad has a phobia of disembodied hands? You’ve found an Etsomnia item I could purchase to absolutely terrify him.
My finger nails are terrible for decorative purposes. I keep them super short and any time I have painted them they ended up chipped and scratched up in an instant. I paint my toenails but never my finger nails. I wish it was different but it is what it is. I love the idea of the mirror finish polish and the heat sensitive sparkly one.
It helps a bit, though nothing helps very much. So frustrating! My nails used to be so strong, I could practically hang upside down from them. Now, if I open a package and use my nails even a little, they shred. It stinks.
I try to wear Sally Hansen’s hard as nails as much as possible. Right now I have on gold sparkly polish and it does really help as I open cans of paint and colorant. Plus pretty, but not like this at all.

I have to throw a little bathroom humor in once in a while to see who’s paying attention…

They are beautiful for models. If you work outdoors with garden and plants, don’t think they would work, Hal

I didn’t used to polish my fingernails, just my toes. But now my nails are so soft, I need the polish to keep them from breaking.

Interesting. I have very brittle nails too. I didn’t think about the reinforcement factor of polish.
