Why does nail polish stick so well to toenails but not fingernails?

Just a random thing, but I painted my toes 3 months ago and just now removed the rest of the paint and redid them. But if I paint my nails, its gone in 2 days. Why does it stick so well to toes but not fingers?Why does nail polish stick so well to toenails but not fingernails?
same here but im guessing its because we do more stuff with your fingers than toes so it chips more easily.


i hate when that happens tho..lolWhy does nail polish stick so well to toenails but not fingernails?
Because you use your fingers so much for eveyrthing that they are guarenteed to chip, we don't use are toes really for anything. Also we can't play with are toes, but we can play with are fingers. I mean play by biting are fingers or just chipping them. We're using are fingers for everyday activities like typing, opening a can, scratching your skin, and much more





i hope this helps!
it doesnt stick any better, you just dont do much with your feet. your hands and therefore fingernails are always holding things, grabbing things, going in and out of pockets/draws/bags etc... so the polish gets knocked off quicker
most probably its because we use our hands to do more stuff as opposed to our feet...the friction caused by everyday chores like doing dishes and things like that will cause nail polish to wear faster.
You use your hands more so than your toes. You use your fingers to type down on keyboard. Your toes don't do anything, besides walking.
I know what you mean but I reckon its cos we use our fingers more. And wash our hands more and just in general bash that polish up.
