    I Mixed Isopropyl Alcohol & Scrubfresh

    My 230ml Isopropyl alcohol table bottle only had about 30ml left in it, so this morning I topped it up, BUT I stupidly topped it with 200ml scrubfresh. I will ditch unless someone can assure me that the small quantity of I. Alcohol will not have any detrimental effect on the scrubfresh...

    First day as a non smoker!

    So proud of you Mally, its not easy but you are made of strong stuff. You are over the hardest part so stay strong and poison free. Ive been smoke free for over 10 years, and will never ever start again because those first 4 or 5 days of quiting are soooo hard. I dont ever want to go...

    In a predicament!

    My view, she lent sorry "gave" you money when you needed it, I cant believe you begrudge the odd manicure. I wouldn't offer her the money back, I personally would be offended if I were your mother in law. Do her nails as an act of love, Im sure the gift was given to you from an act of love also.

    Real nails!

    For years I wore L&P enhancements which took me ages to do. Working two jobs meant I did not often find the time to rebalance and have them looking as good as I would have liked. Since wearing Shellac, my nails have never looked better, they are stronger than they have ever been and I have...

    Chu Jie soak off gel

    thank you all very much for your comments. Geeg, bI guess you are right, it is bound to happen sooner or later. I guess I was just kinda shocked and had hoped for some decent information about the product, but I guess the fact there is none says it all!! Again, my thanks. Might add, the...

    Chu Jie soak off gel

    It is for sale on Trade Me, NZ equivalent to EBay. So you can see why I am naturally concerned. It concerns me that there is no training and the public can purchase the system, lamp and all, with absolutely no knowledge. I did a "Google" and it appears it originate from China. I was hoping...

    Chu Jie soak off gel

    Does anyone have any experience or knowledge of this soak off gel. Good bad or otherwise. I have had clients asking me about it as it has somehow made its way to our shores. It seems extremely cheap which concerns me, but I cant comment as I know nothing of it. Any comments appreciated...

    Bruising and arnica gel

    I swear by arnica, but use it mainly for bad strains and sprains and twisted ankles. Im not as clumsy as I sound, but my sons are sports freaks and I force them to use arnica when injured. If taken immediately, and as directed (I mainly use the drops) you often get no bruising at all. I...

    Magical hayfever cures? :)

    This is going to sound kinda odd, but my girlfriend who suffers from allergies and sinus problems swears by it, (and she has tried every chemical, pill and spray on the market). Contain some fresh seawater in a jar and twice a day, remove the lid and deeply inhale. Guess this is only going...

    Clients wanting to take me out

    My opinion is, if you dont want to socialise with these people, then as posted above, be polite but very clear and firm that you dont want to go. A have a couple of clients (in fact I really only have a couple of clients) LOL, that I have become very friendly with, and against the advice I...

    E Reader? Kindle etc

    I've had a sony e-reader for about 6 months, and although it is really good for travelling, I have to admit I really really miss the feel and smell of a real paper book and being able to share and swap with friends. I think I will go back to real books and save the e-reader for travelling and...

    UV top coat

    Karen I agree, I am happy to buff or use a gel topcoat same price for both. I use about 95% CND products but I love NSI Glaze and Go. Goes on easily, never goes gluggy or thick in the bottle, I just love it.

    Disaster with suntan oil and Shellacked nails!

    I also didn't know that excessive amounts of sun tan lotion/insect repellant could effect shellac. Can anyone offer any other information that we could pass on to our clients to keep their shellac's looking their best. Many thanks.

    opi axxium coloured gels

    Hi, I have recently purchased the axxium coloured gels. They are advertised as permanent nail enamel but are applied as you would apply a gel and cured using a UV light. I haven't had any training with it and am managing ok. I find axxium much easier to apply than the Brisa but the axxium...

    axium vs brisa gel

    I have just seen a demo of OPI axium coloured gels and was very impressed. So impressed with the ease of application and the colour range that am considering purchasing. However, I am CND user and am wondering if I should be buying Brisa bolds instead. (I am not really so keen on having to...
