Ok guys plssss don''t think I''m whacked or anything *LOL* well ahem...pass on over that. Thing is when I wear clear coat on nails, which might I add I just LUV OPI Nail Envy - Dry & Brittle formula...after I come out of the tanning bed they have a very faint dark/yellowish tint to them, as opposed to the pretty, natural/healthy look they had before I tanned. Anyone else experience this...any ideas/suggetions??

Thx in advance

This does happen and the more you tan the yellower they get. I don't know of a solution.

I am an avid tanning bed goer. I bought a clear formula from Walgreen's awhile back that is specifically to put on top of other polish so the UV rays and all the other many different rays from the sun and tanning bed won't turn your polish yellow. This will happen, some more than others. Sally's beauty supply might have stuff along the same lines if you don't have a Walgreens around you.

I can't find mine at the moment or I would send you the name. It was in a clear bottle, with a yellow lid and yellow writing on the bottle.

Also, stay away from polish that has Formaldehyde in it. This will turn your nails yellow as well. Plus for me, it just gives me the ickies knowing that is what they store body parts in and I am putting it on my nails. hehehe

um...off the nail subject: be careful with the tanning because tanning beds aren't any safer than the sun, and skin cancer is simply just no fun
