Lipstick Powder N Paint

The stars are pouring into Toronto as we write this post. It’s time for the Toronto International Film Festival, or TIFF as peeps in the know call it.

We will be attending a few fun events over the next couple of days (yes, we’ll give you the scoop). And of course one MUST have red carpet-ready hands. So, we of course went to the salon with the nail know-how, Tips Nail Bar, where we got an AH-MAY-ZING CND Shellac mani. (more…)

At the Wes Gordon spring/summer 2012 show, manicurist Kristina Estabrooks crafted soft almond, nearly neon, coral “Power Nails” with two coats of CND Colour in Poppyfield.

We LOVE it and think you should all be wearing this colour for summer.

What do you think of neon coral? And are you a fan of almond shaped nails?

The dry winter air can do a number on your nails. Say goodbye to chipped and brittle nails in time for spring. (more…)

Though red is usually our go-to colour for the holiday season, we thought that this custom-colour Shellac mani spoke to us. You likey?

The base is actually a deep grey (Asphalte) with an opalescent pink (Moonlight and Rose) layered on top. Our ring fingers were given an extra little bling with a sheer multi-coloured glitter (Zillionaire). The tips were also done in Shellac (Cream Puff) – we wondered if we should have gone with a black. Thoughts? Fianlly, a good old fashioned top coat was applied to ensure these puppies stayed intact for quite some time – and they did!

So, what do you think? Holiday-ish? Not bling enough? We want to know!
