First and Probably Last Nail Post… Must Have Items!
When I was in Arizona my beautiful friend Jineane could not stand the site of my undone nails and toes and insisted on giving me a full mani-pedi the night I arrived. Honestly I have never been a fan of painting my nails. I hate the way it looks when it chips. I dont like the dull polish that shows on the first day after painting. I hate anything maintenance. I like to paint or up keep when I choose, not because it is required of me.
So first night in Arizona she had my nails and toes sparkling! A bit of me was excited by how cute and shiny they looked but then remembered far to quickly that they wouldnt look like that for long.
So since I have been home a few days now I look at my feet and am surprised to see my toes are still looking perfect and super shinny. They still look as though they were just polished. So I immediately called Jineane and to find out what she used that kept my polish looking so new.
Her secret is a brand called CND or Creative Nail Design. After the pedicure she began with CND Stickey Base coat which grabs hold of the color to prevent chipping. Polished with the color of choice and finished with Super Shiney Top Coat. VERY important Tip: From the Nail Guru (aka Jineane) wipe off all the oil of your nail before applying base coat. (This can we done with alcohol or polish remover)
To anyone and everyone. You need these products. You can re read every post in my entire blog and I have never once said that about any products I have reviewed. But these Nail Products are beyond fabulous. I have already ordered them online and cant wait to receive so I can repaint!
However, Its good to know my original polish isnt going anywhere before it arrives:)

I've been a nail biter since I was 2 years old and everytime I tried to grow them out, they just split and break
But I started taking B12 and now they are actually growing! I needed this post since I need some good products for them now
