I just quoted what the teachers at school said about nail-polish xDMine are each nail painted a different color, and starting to chip. Teri was right!
I've never considered painting nails to be "girly girl" at all. To me, it's a form of decoration. I paint my nails when they are all the same length and long enough (so... not very oftenI have done my nails once. Ever. In clear nail polish for my friend's 10th birthday party, and she is now 11 and going on 12 in October, so that was a while ago. The reasons I've hardly ever done my nails: a) I'm not a girly girl,I'm not allowed. Those two answers, especially the second, also explain why I have no idea of the difference between lipstick and lip moistening stuff, and have no idea what mascara is, let alone all the other stuff girls use...I'm not into make-up and fashion...

Those sound pretty cool.I wear fake nails, a pair I got today have white tips and black and silver streaks on them. ;P
Sorry I'm kind of ignorant...I've never considered painting nails to be "girly girl" at all. To me, it's a form of decoration. I paint my nails when they are all the same length and long enough (so... not very often)
I agree there are some decorations / colours that could be considered very girly and feminine - but not all of them - shocking red nails? denim blue nails? black nails? - none of those simple, commonplace colours are what you would call "girly"![]()
(my daughter - who is older than you - regularly paints her nails with different designs - Super Mario mushrooms are a favorite atm)
Even if you are not into make up and fashion you should be aware that "lip moistening stuff" - or lip balm / lip salve is a really useful item of kit.
it's not make up - it is applied to the lips to relieve chapped or dry lips (very common with lots of people - including primary school children) during winter - and can also be used to protect the lips from drying out in summer. A lot of lip balms nowadays also contain things like a sun block to prevent the lips getting burned in bright sun.
Even if you are not allowed to paint your nails or use make up you should talk with your parents about being able to apply useful things like lip balm ("Chap Stick" is a very good product) - if you need it. The Summer Sun and Winter Cold/Wind can do a lot of damage to skin and it is worth looking after yourself![]()
Same here. But I didn't do my nails once--I've done them zero times simply because I don't see a reason to. Besides, my fingernails are my favorite afternoon snack. XDI have done my nails once. Ever. In clear nail polish for my friend's 10th birthday party, and she is now 11 and going on 12 in October, so that was a while ago. The reasons I've hardly ever done my nails: a) I'm not a girly girl,I'm not allowed.
