A quick trip into the life cycles of Shellac. See for yourself how the nail beds look after 27 days.
shellac_attacked
Client Carly responded immediately to the announcement of Shellac and changed out her color at day 14, even though it was perfect, to mix it up for her vacation. She ended up breaking a nail and bending others in a luggage mishap, but was so blown away that the polish still looked great, and held together other nails that bent, that she sent a photo right from the plane. “I think it would have been much worse if I hadn’t had the the Shellac on.” Luvs!

Another thing – Carly is a salon owner, so her hands take a beating with dye and water daily. Her manicure remained beautiful.

At day 13 she came in to trim back the broken nails and selected another Shellac color. She’s hooked, and so are we!

Book an appointment for your own Shellac experience with me.

I’ve been working with Shellac for the last month and have to say, it is an amazing product! I finally had a minute to swatch but had to stop because of the rain. The largest photo is Negligee, which is one of the most requested colors. L to R: Negligee, Strawberry Smoothie, Romantique, Rose Bud, Tropix, Hot Chilis, Cappuccino, Cream Puff, Fedora(more to come)

essie thinks FUN! for summer 2010

I was inspired by the vivid pastels at Versace and the splashy florals at DKNY. I created this collection to reflect the youthful, fun-to-wear flirty frocks. ~ Essie Weingarten

essie_summer2010

essie’s summer 2010 collection release is right around the corner, and the colors are all based on the concept of fun! Indeed, Essie Weingarten, President and Founder of Essie LTD, based these beautiful colors on the feminine looks revealed during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York.

Pick yours up once June rolls around at your favorite beauty haunts, now including Target.

Sex and the City 2 – New York Premiere

NYC’s SATC 2 premiere was a raging success. Here’s to the rest of us poor slobs that have to wait three (or more) days to watch the ultimate chick flick of all time.

I’m disturbed by a couple of things in this photo, namely SJP’s boobs masquerading as Miranda’s hair bow. Knock that off.

I do think SJP’s hair is looking great. Very Molly Sims.
