I’ll be the first to admit I used to skip peach every single time I sat down at the nail salon. It felt too safe. Too expected. Too “nice.” And then one summer afternoon — sunscreen-scented, slightly sweaty — I caved and asked for a soft peachy-coral on short square nails, mostly because I couldn’t … Read more

It was embarrassing, honestly — I’d see someone at the office with a pristine manicure from two weeks ago and wonder what on earth they were … Read more
