Glass nail files are available from Amazon and Sephora - after seeing them mentioned here I added them to my Holiday shopping list

So thanks!
Nails are my hobby of the year for 2010, and I had a lot of fun with Konad nail stamping, they also have some great simple french tip style stamp. Basically you can stamp little icons or designs onto your nails, it's actually quite quick!
For self polishing, practice practice practice, when I started I could barely polish my right hand better than a 5 year old. Now I'm much faster and enjoy the creative aspects a lot more.
For great long lasting Polish and less chipping nails ( I work all day on a computer keyboard)
Seche Vite is the absolutely best top coat every. I do 2 coats and can type all week and my nails wil stay whole for a whole week and sometimes longer.
