Bio Sculpture launches the latest innovation in nail art - Feather Sensations!

We’ve seen the trend, Feather Hair Extensions. Fun? Yes. Overdone? Yes. BUT, have no fear feather an enthusiast, the feather is here to stay with the new Bio Sculpture Art Feathers.

Animal print and feathers are very HOT and popular right now in the fashion world, with lots of feathers making their way onto the catwalks. Bio Sculpture have created an innovative way to add fashion to fingers and toes, but whilst still keeping health and safety as a top priority!

The wonderful versatility of Bio Sculpture Gel allows the nail artists to embed the feathers into the gel and protect it by sealing it with a flexible finishing layer of Bio Sculpture Gel. Bio Sculpture Art Feathers are the perfect nail art accessory to create an instant, yet intricate nail design. Layer between Bio Sculpture Gel for perfectly smooth, chip-free "natural" nail art."

Bio Sculpture’s original ‘non-chip’ formula of gel lacquer is applied directly on to the natural nail, without the need or use of primers or bonders that can leave nails damaged, dehydrated and generally unhealthy. Bio Sculpture’s non chip formula dries instantly and lasts up to eight weeks on toes and three weeks on fingers, amazingly resisting all signs of wear & tear. Bio Sculpture is available in over 36 countries and prides itself on its refreshing health & safety profile, a rare find in the nail world.

The Bio Sculpture Gel being the creator of the Color Gel, Soak Off Gel, and Gel Nail Sculptures have brought many innovative nail transformations to the table. The all-in-one system, that’s one of a kind!

Is Nail Polish the Happiest Beauty Product?


I love this story story, from the Cincinnati Enquirer. At the St. Joseph Home in Cincinnati, a residential facility for non-ambulatory and non-verbal adults and children, a wish list request from its female residents is nail polish. So volunteers from a local high school girls' soccer team visited the home and painted the nails and toes of some very deserving residents. As St. Joseph's development director Renee Russell explained in the paper, "The girls and women at the home don't have much mobility, so looking at their bright-colored fingernails brings them happiness."

 

Painting and discussing our nails is all in a day's work around these parts. And while I may not notice when someone is testing out a new mascara, foundation, or bronzer, I always notice when she has fly nails. Stopping to discuss the whys and wherefores of the color or design with a coworker or friend just instantly makes me happier. And if I'm having a bad day, a glittery manicure can significantly boost my spirits.

Maybe that's why nail polish is having a huge moment in cosmetics? According toWWD, from January to October last year, nail sales were up a staggering 59 percent. If people are buying it at the rate they're apparently buying it, then I have to believe I'm not alone in believing in polish's mood-lifting powers. It's affordable, it's colorful, and, most important, it's fun. (Allure Magazine - By Anne-Marie Guarneri, Senior Editor / Photo: Getty Images)

A Weird New Way to Fight Pain


Whether it's during a wax, a flu shot, or something more severe...we could all use a handy method to alleviate pain. A new study may have found one. In this month's Psychological Science, UCLA researchers report on their research: women could withstand more physical pain when looking at pictures of their significant others. Researchers concluded that seeing the snaps brought on feelings of love and support, even when the loved one wasn't present.

Are you happy with the shape of your brows?


Eyebrows are inarguably one of the most important features on your face.  It defines your eyes, the shape of your face and expresses your personality.  Well-shaped brows always enhance your look, your personality and your confidence.

The shape of the eyebrows should be well-defined and compliment your facial structure.  Taking time to groom brows will mark a difference in appearance. Now, tell me what shape are your eyebrows and are you happy with them?

To Bare or Not To Bare?

When it comes to Brazilian bikini waxes, the debate can get hairy. (Sorry!)

 

Adding to the conversation, a sex advice columnist for The Times of London has sparked outrage for telling a letter writer that she's not with it if she's not without it—downunder hair, that is. Meanwhile, Elizabeth Wurtzel, the author of Bitch and Prozac Nation, argues in nerve.com's Bare vs. Hair Debate that "we women don't feel entirely female unless we're slaves to beauty."

Huge sisterhood fails, ladies. No woman wants to feel like a slave to grooming; and implying that beauty isn't about choice, is missing all the fun is has to offer. (Lipstick Queen in Saint Rouge is not my master, but my elected official. And when I'm not wearing it, I still have two X chromosomes.)

 

Allure has had its share of bikini waxes—both standard and Brazilian. They're great for keeping your full downstairs under wraps at the beach, and yeah, they do look and feel a little tidier. And considering the fact that people have been using delipitories on body hair since at least 4,000 BC, the Brazilian isn't so outlandish. That said, it also isn't a must—especially, when you have the option to dye your downunder hair blue.

 

So what do you think? Do you take frequent "trips to Brazil"? Do you prefer au natural?

Beauty for a Cause

The Nail Spa is going beyond pampering – it is supporting the Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

This October, pamper yourself with your favorite treats - Heaven Facial, Detox Massage & Everlasting Mani/Pedi, and be able to treat others too!  How? The Nail Spa will be donating a portion of the sales from these treats to ‘Brest Friends Support Group’ – a foundation in Dubai that helps raise breast cancer awareness and serves as a “best friend” to breast cancer patients.

This is what we are doing to show our support.  What have YOU been doing this month?
