My mail just arrived and the blooming nail polish I ordered is here.
Very cool. Have you had a gel manicure recently? It can be risky to have them done back-to-back.
I actually use very short acrylic fakes, so I paint those first off my hands and then apply them finished.  
Interesting. Those can also pose health risks, including respiratory problems, exposure to formaldehyde, and an infection of the nail bed.
Hmmm, my nails are actually healthier and more taken care of since I started using them.
Do you work in a well-ventilated place when you apply them?
It's just a little bit of liquid glue.. it doesn't even smell.  
As long as you're letting your nails breathe every few months, you should be okay. Dr. Lawrence Gibson of the Mayo Clinic is pretty adamant about taking precautions.
Well I have a super cute set on right now, it's a marble look, white and black and silver, and it's not an easy technique. 
How long have you been exploring nail art? Have you ever considered doing it as a profession?
For about two years, I laugh when I look at my first sets now, I'm constantly trying to learn new techniques and styles, I find it creative and relaxing.
