1. my fingernails hate the feeling of polish.
2. the polish chips within hours of the manicure, sometimes even before I get home.
3. it hardly seems worth it to me anyway because it wears off so fast, it would be very costly to keep me well-manicured.
4. I can tolerate a pedicure much better--it lasts longer (there are, after all a LOT of things that we typically do with our fingers and NOT with our toes!)
5. I find it very hard to wear mascara or eye make up.
6. I feel wierd in lipstick most of the time, so I don't use it except on really special dress up occasions.
7. I've finally found an every day makeup I can live with but it's limited to foudnation and blush. I'd be happier without it but my skin looks a bit splotchy, especially under those awful lights at work. (It's funny--a co-worker of mine always says I look like I'm feeling better on days that I have the make up on!! I don't think she realizes the connection).
8. My feet are very very very unahppy in heels or anything but comfy shoes and I usually try to keep my feet happy. It's those fancy dress up obligations that are the challenge.
