My biggest goal was lengthening my nail-beds and I really feel like I see a difference, especially on certain fingers. Woohoooooo

Hi, brand new here. I think I finally have a mask I like, however, just doing the test drive (less than 5 minutes) I can tell it’s irritating the crap out of my skin on the outside of my nose where the septum/columella is. What’s the best way to mitigate this? Is there a fabric cover for that part? Could I stick a piece of cloth there lol? TIA
Side note—the app says the seal is excellent, but I definitely feel air blowing out of the top of the tube, is this normal?
What an INSANELY gorgeous polish to use for my first attempt at a magnetized manicure. Mistakes were made and lessons were learned.
This is Marigold from Glitch Lacquer’s new Pride Collection 🧡 it is significantly more copper-y than orange on me than the swatch photos and I love both!
I attempted to velvetize my pinky, middle finger, and thumb with the ILNP horseshoe magnet, and used the ILNP wand to attempt a diagonal line on the ring and pointer.
Lessons learned: Wait wayyyyy longer before applying topcoat—did my ring finger and pinky too quickly and the polish bunched up and has texture. And then I used my drying drops as always, and it also messed up texture! Most noticeable on the tip of my middle finger.
Hours later I found this pipe cleaner on my floor and have no idea where it came from (I have a toddler though, so..)

I know no other POTSies in real life that also are unable to drive because of sudden onset pre-syncope, syncope, dizziness, etc and it often makes me feel like I’m crazy.
But now I’m seeing more conversation about it because of that dang documentary Crash or whatever, so thought I might find some solidarity here. It’s been 7 months without driving for me so far, what about you?

I started my nail journey after my best friend passed in August 2024, and I inherited her collection. It’s how I heard of ILNP for the first time, and today I used one of her bottles! This one’s for you, Maddie ✨
ILNP Utopia on middle finger - just bought during the retirement sale!
ILNP Mega (X) on Ring finger and thumb - this was Maddie’s and today is my first time using it and SHEESH. Does the X mean xtremely amazing because this is my new fave. It’s in the old style bottle too!

My coat hanger pain is my main symptom and it’s so bad I can’t wear a bra anymore. I’m not in a position to not wear a bra if you’re catchin’ my drift.
I know surgeries in general can trigger POTS symptoms, but my symptoms aren’t under control anyways haha. I just got approved for a reduction in 2 months.
Has anyone done this? Did it help with coat hanger pain? Is it awful on symptoms? I’m mostly worried about 6 weeks post-op having to be in a compression bra.
