I found a blog online the other day that said that putting lotion around your nails before painting helped with the clean up after. I was unsure if this would work or not, but I figured I'd try it.

It totally works! I had to apply lotion twice, but that's because my skin was super dry and by the time I finished the last nail, the first one had absorbed all the lotion. :/

It recommended using a q-tip to clean up the polish after, but I waited until my nails were completely dry and used a wooden cuticle pusher to clean it off. It peeled right off!

My nails right after finishing my sad attempt at making shamrocks for St Patrick's Day:

If you want I can send some Jamberry samples for accent nails. I just started selling them. Just message me your address and I will send you a few. They are non toxic so kid safe too

They come in kid sizes?! I've seen them around, but haven't looked into them too much. They're just stickers you put on your nails right?

They are heat sealed poly vinyl so they last longer than most sticker type wraps. And they can be cut to size or we have juniors sizes. I don't have any junior wraps but I can send a few options of the regular size with instructions. And info is here myfunkymani.jamberrynails.net

Oh wow. Those are way more complicated than I thought. Kiley won't go for it since she hates heat. :(
