How Long Does Your Polish Last?

nails

I really envy women who can maintain a perfect set of nails over a few days, because the very second my polish dries, it immediately mutinies and begins a desperate attempt to get off my fingers as soon as possible.

If I was a sensitive type I'd be getting worried - are my nails not quite the des res for Chanel's Vendetta? - but because I'm not, I just get ENRAGED about it. No matter how well I file, lightly buff every few weeks, degrease, lay on the base-coat, apply two thin coats of colour making sure to bring it over-the-nail and finish the lot off with a topcoat, by the next day I'm chip-tastic.

It doesn't seem to matter what brand I use, either: Essie, Bourjois, Essence and Leighton Denny all disappear at a similar rate of knots.

Sigh.

Who gets a week out of a mani? WHO? And for the love of god, will you share your secret in a comment?
