I took a trip to the spa yesterday for a quick manicure and discovered that they were carrying the collection. I was super psyched and decided to go with 'Short Shorts', a super neon and vibrant hot-pink hue. I LOVE this color. It is sooo electric an

The origins of the classic French manicure are difficult to trace. Some insist that the simple design, a clean pale pink nail with white tip, originated in France in the 1800’s, while others credit Max Factor for creating the look for Paris fashionistas in the 1930’s. American brand Orly definitely trademarked the term here in the States in 1978 with their popular at home kit. Yet, in recent years, the prevalence of statement-making hues like Chanel’s Vamp and Black Satin have attracted all of the attention while the sad French manicure languished in the corner. And though women in middle America may sport the French mani regularly, it’s a rare occurrence to see a chic woman in New York with the design. It makes one think…is the French manicure a trend

Ladies, now no laughing ok? You have to hear me out. I never would have believed this but a few weeks ago while doing some quick shopping at Walmart I decided to check out the cosmetic aisles. While looking up and down at everything, and if you know me, I do look at everything, haha, I spotted some nice looking french manicured acrylics by KISS. I kind of laughed because I for one would never buy something like this. Why, well maybe because I just think they are cheapy and tacky looking. Anyway, while scanning the rows of nails I happened to see the words Self Stick. I thought ya right, who is going to be that gullible to think these things work or even remotely resemble real nails. Then I gazed further down and my eyes caught the KISS Acrylic Custom Fit french manicured tips for toes! Yes

--By Kim MoshtaghiNeutrogena Norwegian FormulaHand Cream$4.39Available at: drugstore.comIt's easy to make snap judgments when it comes to a woman's hands. There is nothing worse than seeing a healthy young lady walking around with dried up hands-- it makes you wonder what other parts she ignores!

My hands stay softer much longer.Also, it is crucial for ladies to remember that when hands get wet, they also get dry and wrinkled. Dried out and wrinkled = ugly looking hands

For blog readers where aren't stagers, you may not appreciate the physical side of staging:  moving furniture, hanging window treatments, wiring artwork, cleaning, ironing, packing, unpacking ... all of which takes a toll on our hands! Driving home from my latest vacant stage, I was looking at my hands on the steering wheel pondering, "Maybe I should charge a manicure fee with my vacant stages." But then why stop there?  Pedicure Fee, Massage Fee, Wine Fee (for those difficult clients), Whine Fee (again, for those difficult clients)...Hands up for all the hard working stagers and their messed up manicures!

By: Jessica JamesonMention the words "French Manicure" around nearly any woman, and you'll immediately see their face light up like a kid on Christmas morning. This is because many women regularly indulge themselves in this classic beauty routine, whether they go out to a salon or do it themselves at home. It has become known as a common form of manicure in the United States, as it most resembles a "natural" look for fingernails. It's very universal in that the look is ideal for day-to-day life, weddings, proms, special events, or nights out on the town.The history of the French Manicure is thought to go back to the mid 1970's when a man named Jeff Pink, president of the popular manicure company Orly, attended a fashion show where he noticed several of the models were using a white pencil to whiten the tips of their fingernails. He immediately realized this could be major fashion trend and brainstormed a way to recreate the look. The result was a kit that contained two shades of pol

Getting a manicure these days seems to be common practice for a lot of people.  Some men do receive regular manicures; however, it seems that is type of pampering is usually dominated by women.  I went to the nail salon two weeks ago and was amazed at how many women were there.  There were mother daughter duos in the nail salon.  There were people like myself that were at the salon because of being in a wedding party.  There were also women that were just there for a little much needed pampering. I am not one of those lucky women who have the time to get regular salon manicures.  I am thrilled with the way that my nails look when they are freshly painted, but I know that in just a few hours the polish will start to chip.  Unfortunately, I am just not that graceful. If you have a bit of time and like to save some funds, here are some tips to DIY home manicures. (more…)

By: Maddy Well manicured nails can make be the difference between a great first impression and a poor one. The way you keep your nails says a lot about you as a person, so keeping them is tip top condition is a must. If you want to make sure your nails always look nice, put together a little manicure kit that you can take anywhere. Here are some nail essentials that you should be sure to include.1. Glass Nail File: For perfectly filed nails, it’s best to invest in a glass nail file. Although they tend to be a little more expensive than your average emery board, they are better for your nails. Glass nail files leave your nails smoother and less jagged than other types, are easy to sterilize, and are much better for acrylic nails.2. Base Coat: While it may not seem very important to put that thin layer of clear polish on your nails before your vibrant colored polish, it actually essential to healthy and great looking nails. A good base coat can help protect your nails from staining, es

By Janice WeeFirst, pair everyone up. You'll have to take turns to be the manicurist, so work in pairs.Then issue a pair of basins ot each pair. One basin for the hands the other for the foot.Offer a selection of essential oils and unscented liquid soap or scented bath soap for your guests to choose from so they can make their own hand and foot baths. To make a foot or hand bath, fill the basin with warm water. Add a few drops of liquid soap and 3 or 4 drops of essential oil or just add in the bath soap.Remove nail polish with nail polish remover before you soak your hands and feet. Leave the windows and possibly the door open for maximum ventilation when you use the nail polish removers. Trim nails with a nail clipper if necessary.Each pair decides who goes first. The lucky one sits on a chair in front of a table and soaks her hands in a basin on the table and her feet in the basin at the foot of the chair. Her partner picks the nail colors for the manicure and the pedicure.After soa

STEP 1Exfoliate your hands by massaging them using a small amount of body scrub. Rinse with water and dry thoroughly. One of the main causes of chapped hands is not drying them properly after washing.STEP 2File your nails. If they are brittle or tend to split, keep them flat across the top with smooth, rounded edges. When filing, move in one direction, from outer corner to centre-sawing movements can damage the nail plate. Choose a nail file with a fine surface that glides over the nail.STEP 3Coat hands in a layer of sweet almond oil, to norish and soften, then wrap in a warm towel and relax for 15 minutes. Unwrap, and gently push back cuticles using a rubber hoof stick (available from most chemists). Never use cuticle clippers, as they can nick the skin. Rinse hands with warm water and dry thoroughly to remove any oil residue.STEP 4Apply one coat of base coat over your entire nail and allow a couple of minutes to dry. This will help strengthen the nail.STEP 5For a square look, paint a

Bliss Manicure's Best Friend .5oz $18. Arrgh, it's bitter bitter cold. I have the driest hands and cuticles in the world. I can have hangnails on all my fingers if I don't religiously apply hand cream, especially in the dry office air (and the cheap ass hand wash in the washroom doesn't help either). When my cuticles aren't neat, I don't even want to put on nail polish 'cause it just looks sad. I'm so glad I picked up this Bliss hand cream. It really is manicure's best friend. It exfoliates, rehydrates and conditions the cuticle area with butter, jojoba oil and green tea extracts, my cuticles look much smoother and neater. You don't need much of this stuff to cover both hands. Darn hangnails, be gone!
