Nail polish - subtle or poppin'

[MrsFabuloso]

On my finger nails I like subtle, really pale pinks or purples, naturals or silvery colours, because I don't particularly like my hands or fingernails. But I like to be manicured.
On my toes I like brights or dark colours, like deep reds, black and midnight blues.

I only have clear, natural pink or french on my finger nails. (not supposed to have any at work!) But I love to have hot pink on my toes

When I can summon the effort (once or twice a year hehe) it's usually subtle. Although I've busted out the purple a couple of times - that's pretty out there for me

I should add - if my nailes stayed nice, I'd probably do it more. But if I apply it at lunchtime, it's chipped by bedtime
How do you stop it chipping?

Is chewed ragged subtle or poppin'?
