Many people often want some information related to sugar scrub vs salt scrub. Both products are natural granules and help in shin exfoliation. Both scrubs help to remove dead skin and some say rejuvenate the skin.

Basically the title says it all... The winner depends on you! I did a quick Google search and could not fine a clear winner, nothing claiming why one maybe preferred over the other. At, the end of the day it is a personal choice. It is what you feel that is best for your skin and your senses. Today might be a sugar scrub and tomorrow might be a salt scrub..

Shellac, Shellac, Shellac.... that is what I have been hearing!!!!

Shellac, Shellac, Shellac... that is what I have been hearing. The new hybrid nail polish by Creative Nail Design (CND).

So, what is Shellac? It is a polish, which is cured under a UV light and are suppose to stay No chips No smudges and free for up to 2 weeks!

Finally, I went to the nail supply house purchase a bottle of Shellac base coat, Shellac Romantique (a soft pink) and a bottle of Shellac top coat. After 30 minutes a glass of wine (!) my nails were polished.

After 8 days there is No Smudges, chips or peeling. A little grown out but my nails still look nice. I will be able to give my manicured clients what they have always dreamed of. A manicure the is smudge, chip and peel free. Shellac nail manicure includes filing, cuticle care, buffing and polish all for $35. This is a great price for a manicure taht will stay for 14 days.

Day 14!!!!! My nails look great!! I never thought that I would ever think about not putting my acrylics back on. I have been an acrylic wearing girl since I started doing nails 10 plus years ago. I am your typical client, my nails are weak, they won't grow without the acrylic and the number one problem the polish will not stay on my natural nails.

Well, Thanks to Shellac that is not happening. What a great new product!!
