    Fleur - Thin coats of polish, and wrap the colour under the end of the nail. Top coat (shellac!) really helps. Otherwise, touchups every couple of days. Make sure the nail is very clean before polishing too - if using dark colours, then a base coat (else the nail will discolour). If doing a lot of wet work, then gloves are a definate.
    Thanks for the tips

    ... and oh my gosh that's a lot of work! No wonder mine chip, lol. I just whack a coat on & then go do what I've gotta do (often before it's dry.. bad I know). I should give this a go.
