French Shellac

Perfect for a french manicure, if you do not want to spend time and money for a professional one...
Simply buy the new shellack nail polishes

I have found one that is quiet cheap (Amazon, 9€ per bottle).....
Colours: Rosetta (light pink, close to my nail colour), White for the tip, Base/Top Coat (combined)
You only need a swirl stick for the finger tip....
Apply in the order

• Base Coat  - dry 2 min under UV light
• Rose polish - dry 2 min under UV light
• apply white colour with swirl stick on nail tip - dry 2 min under UV light
• cover with top coat - dry 4 min under UV light
• clean with cleaner or alcohol

 The manicure lasts for approx 2 weeks and cost only 3 € per manicure... cheap and fast..... and you can cover the french in every nail polish, as long as you use an aceton free remover!

Essie sleek sticks

Today I bought stickers for my nails. I have seen them often in shops, but only in crazy designs that I would never wear. By checking for new Essie nail polishs I found the sleek sticks. They come in a pack with 18 stickers in different sizes. They are white with a love poem on them - perfect for Valentine.
They are easy to use - simply clean the nails (I use some alcohol to get rid of oil) and put the sticker on them. The stickers are too long for my nails, but I simply glued them on and then shortened them with a small file. The stickers are very thin and look very good on my nails.
I think they are great to decorate one finger - I do not like them for a complete look... but it is a funny and fast "manicure pimping"
