I am constantly trying to grow them out and break the habit. I try painting them while they are still short so that I won't bite them again but usually they look so weird and gross with a nice color on them while being so short and jagged. I am a cashier, and since I am always handing people receipts and money, I am self conscious that people are judging me by my short, jagged, unpolished gross nails. Hahaha I'm so self conscious, it's pathetic!
The other day, I painted them a pretty red, but I HATED how the red made them stand out. So while I was raiding my nail polish stash, I found this pretty OPI color, and it worked perfectly! 
Since it is a nude, it doesn't draw much attention to how short my nails are. I could have just put a clear coat over my bare nail so I wouldn't bite them, but I still felt that the clear gave my nails undeserving attention. 
The tan is perfect for camouflaging the damage I did while biting them and making them appear slightly longer because they now blend in with my skin. Seriously, I can't stop looking at them because they don't look gross anymore. And HOPEFULLY this will be the end of my biting habit....but I've said that hundreds of times in the past!
