Nails Inc. (an across the pond favorite) Neon & Nudes and Essie’s Navigate Her collections both put a great package together for this new Spring/Summer 2012 seasonal trend. Bold brights on the toes and nice clean neutrals on the fingers.

Reflect & Refresh, Its Spring Time!
Friday, 06 April 2012 23:42

It’s Spring time! I think. Mother Nature was throwing out random summer like days back in February, but I think we're all on the same page now. And by page, I mean Spring. The time of year when we should reflect and refresh.
Let’s start with a little reflection. Around this same time last year I was off to San Diego, attending Bootcamp to become a CND Shellac Education Ambassador for the Virginia area. And now with a couple of classes taught under my belt, I am proud to say that I am still in it to win it.

Word is out that Pantone’s (the authority on color for design and fashion professionals for over 50 years) Spring 2012 color palette is to be bright and vibrant with a splash of neutrality.
Over the next few weeks, I will be providing you with polish recommendations that cover the full spectrum of Pantone’s predictions.

Stuck in the moment: Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips
Tuesday, 28 February 2012 00:42

These nail appliques are made of real polish that offers instant salon effects without the drying time. To be flat out honest, I don’t really know how, nor could I scuffle up any information as to how it’s polish, but they do a good job.
I had a client come in (I call her my nail apprentice) for a manicure and she wanted me to put on her SH polish strips afterwards. I thought why not, I can get a review out of this one.

Stuck in the moment: Dashing Diva Design FX

DD Design FX give us stunning texture embedded (3D), bejeweled designs with a simple no heat application. I had the pleasure of working with Dashing Diva and seeing the Design FX in action and I can’t wait to see more from the line.
A big plus with this is that Design FX can be used over traditional polish, between soak-off gels and on nail enhancements. What I recently tried was custom cutting the designs to have more creativity with these fun patterns.
