Re: tips for DIY manicures
I liked the sticky papers, but you have to take your time and let each layer dry completely before removing.
My tips:
-carry a file with you everywhere so you can nip little tears in the bud
-carry Sally Hanson "hard as nails"... awesome stuff
-keep at least clear polish on at all times if your nails are thin like mine
Mine are a good length, but not too much. I have a hard time getting the index fingers to grow evenly because I use those fingers more I guess.

^^^I do all 3 of those as well :)
Re: tips for DIY manicures
I use Scotch tape over the stickers and OPI Nail Envy over Hard as Nails. I find HAN to be kinda "peely". But manicures usually get f--ked up the first day I work, so I try to do it at least a few days before.
