A few months back, I met a wee gal from Ireland!  She was the new “nail” girl at the Salon I use; Salon Sorella and Day Spa in Lakefield.

Niamh (pronounced Neeve) makes my manicures whiz by because she’s such fun company!  It’s important for me to have a “connection” with both my stylist and my esthetician.  You can spend a lot of time with them.  If you have easy conversation it makes the experience more relaxing and fun! Also you need a strong relationship because you need to be honest and direct about what you like and don’t like without compromising your relationship!

This week I popped in to freshen up my sad nails!  The holidays were busy and I was long overdue!  They were  broken off to little nubs and we’re in need of some fresh new colour.

Niamh was excited to show me a new to the salon product line called “Artistic Colour Gloss”.  She said (read in an Irish accent, it has more impact): “This is my favourite.  I used it back home.  It’s great stoff”.

I said, well if you like it, I will too! I asked her why she likes it so much more. These were here reasons (again reading in an adorable Irish accent makes it even better):

  • I prefer this line over other lines as it’s easy to apply with thin coats. It’s easy to work with when designing nail art (which is her speciality:)
  • Artistic is also a pure gel which means it only cures under the light, while the shellac cured under natural light leaving the polishes gloopy (is that a Canadian word lol?) and often too thick to work with.
  •  Artistic also keeps its shine from one appointment to the next and removal will always leave nails healthy!

Watch this quick vlog (33sec) about the process.  It’s really very similar to a shellac application:

I've had my manicure for a week and I do love it.  Washing dishes and tying up skates as often as I do, usually destroys or chips my polish quickly, sometimes days but usually 10 days max is all I was getting out of my previous shellac manicures.  The Artistic Colour Gloss is still hanging on strong after a week! img_6274.jpeg After seeing the length on Niamh's nails while she applied my polish, I decided I'm going back to get tips on!  I miss the length of my longer nails.  I'll get some cool nail art and make sure I vlog all about it!  I'll even get Niamh to talk on camera so you can hear how damn cute she is;) SOOO you know, when I try something, I love to let you try too!  Niamh has offered to GIVEAWAY an Artistic Gel Polish MANICURE TO A LUCKY READER!!  Simply:
  • Share this post on FACEBOOK and tag two friends who would also like to win.
