I had a skirt and eggly convinced myself it was a manly man skirt and i was just defying gender norms. My therapist told me to explore the gender stuff and i tried polish with the skirt and it was just like explosions of gender euphoria in my head every time i looked down and felt the soft swishy and saw the pretty sparkly.
Now skirts with toe paint are like anti depressants for me it’s impossible to look down and see the swish and paint and not feel delighted.
Acetone (thing that makes it luqid but hardens the nail polish once it evaporates) breaks it down, and no water is able to give the nail and the surrounding skin moisture from above.
Not yet! I’m giving my nails a break from polish for a few days to breathe (apparently that’s good for keeping them healthy?). Soon, though!

Not to breathe, but to not become brittle and discoloured.
Ah, gotcha! What about being covered in polish makes them more brittle and discolored?
