Tools for the Polish Monkey

We all like things that make life and applying polish easier. Especially when they are cheap. I found two little dears at Sally Beauty. First was an orange stick dipped in sanding grit. The second was ASP Manicure Saver.

ASP Manicure Saver is a mini version of the "I'm too lazy to pick that up!" tool, that coiled spring or stick with some metal fingers at the end that come out of a tube and grab whatever you don't want to bend over for. The nail buddy is a small pink plastic tube about 4 inches long, with a black button to make the little graspers come out. Then you put a cotton ball/pad in the metal fingers and release the button, and suddenly you have a way to remove polish from one or more nails or places on your hand without affecting your other nails!! Ok, I can't tell you how many times I have ruined other nails trying to fix one ruined fingernail. So I felt like a total idiot when I saw this, and simultaneously very happy someone thought of it. At $3.29 without Sally card, how can you say no?

The orange stick dipped in file sand is handy too. Made to get the underside of nails, you can get it under them to deal with under-nail cuticle, or to smooth filing roughness underneath the nail. At $0.39, without Sally card, sheesh, why not?
