[That resolution to blog more didn't really work out as planned. (But isn't it almost a requirement to break your New Years Resolution by about 3pm on the 1st January?)
Well no more! I am planning to post at least once a week from now on. I have graduated from university now (more on that in another blog post and er... this post as well) and this feels like the right time to show this blog a bit more love!]
Now onto the actual reason for this post - my experience with Bio Sculpture. Touted as "the original ever lasting manicure" that doesn't damage your natural nail. I have to admit I was curious to try it out.
Now as much as I love having polished nails, I hate the process of painting them. Even when I sit as still as a statue I always managed to smudge or dent my nails. If I miraculously make it through the night then they will chip the second I try to do anything like a normal human being.
If I've had a special occasion in the past (think weddings and prom) I've always gone for acrylics because they stand the test of time. The only problem is what they do to my nails. Paper thin and completely damaged.
With my graduation coming up I knew that I wanted nice nails - all that hand shaking and diploma holding requires a manicure right? Right.
Enough with the build up - would I recommend it?
Oh yes yes yes yes YES! I cannot say enough good things about this system. I pootled on down to the nail salon on the 11th...
...and they are still going strong on the 29th! The only difference is the regrowth which is natural considering it has been almost 3 weeks.
The colour I chose is called 'Perfect Pink'. I wanted a true Barbie pink as my dress was azure blue and this colour was indeed 'perfect'!
Information:
- The whole process took 1 hour.
- It is applied like a polish with 1 layer of clear, 2 of colour and 1 clear. Each being set for 2 minutes with a UV lamp.Once the last layer is set with the lamp it is rock hard and glossy - no more smudges, dents or chips!
- Cost: £32*
- Colours: Over 140 different colours, from red to metallic to coral to green.*
For a full colour list click here
- Lasts up to 3 weeks
- Removal doesn't ruin your natural nail
*will vary depending on which salon you go to.
My graduation was completely crazy and hectic but in the best possible sense!
