    Attitude for gratitude

    I very recently lost my aunty who was only in her 40s, I've been so consumed in work that I have forgotten to be thankful for the people I have around me and to make time for them. I think it's the most important thing to be grateful for - all the people you have that love you and you are so...

    Winter-how do you start it?

    The weather turned and I went straight from loving bright colours and having Tropix on my nails at every opportunity to loving dark colours, eyeing up cosy knits and out came the dark purple polishes! The foods got to be the best bit, jacket potatoes and hot chocolates :) love winter x

    Glossybox

    I had two before I cancelled. The last one my blusher arrived completely smashed, I emailed them and they asked for pics as if I was lying! It seemed to me like they must be in hot water to accuse a customer of being untruthful - if it was my business I'd just sent another but I guess everyone's...

    How do I get started?

    I trained with Sienna X initially and found their package reasonable and we had really informative training. Personally I found it easier to buy a package then find my feet with what I needed etc. after. If you'd like me to dm you my experience, cost and what I actually use in terms of product...

    Recommendations for some nice perfume please

    A little bit of a different one is River Island London, it's only around £12 but it's lovely smells like Miss Dior Cherie and is in a purple bottle. Always get compliments & even had to buy my Mum one too. Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb is beautiful though, possibly my favourite :)

    Bad supermarket shampoo

    I bought an Osmo shampoo & conditioner on VAT free too after reading this and love it. I have got the intensive repair treatment too which I used to pile on to fix my hair when it was light, really recommend it x

    Baby hamper ideas?

    My sister-in-law is due her second in Jan and I'm planning on getting her some Buriti Baby products from The Body Shop along with a few pampering bits for her. It's supposed to be all natural and safe for baby, and maybe something she wouldn't think of herself x

    Do I need Calgel?

    Before I trained in beauty I had Calgel and the biggest draw was the shine, which you definitely get with Shellac! I think an offer is a great idea, combined with showing them your own nails done with Shellac, I don't see how they couldn't be willing to swap. Sometimes I think they need to see...

    Nouvatan problems

    Yep ok after 2nd shower! I suppose I will just have to live with it as I do like the colour, cost, etc. Such a shame as the only fault I've found, glad it's not just me imagining things lol :)

    Nouvatan problems

    I have been trialling new solutions and have loved the colour and fade off of Nouvatan but I have found that I spray, leave overnight and shower off in the morning, but throughout the day I find my skin smells like fake tan. I always have a "proper shower" not just the quick nip through I know...

    Late client

    If she had called with a genuine reason to say she would be late I'd have been more inclined to do the appointment but just turning up that late and expecting you to do the treatment is rude. These are the same clients that ring or text on a Sunday to book apts! You did the right thing you never...

    Most popular Shellac colours?

    Just my personal view from what clients have had and how people have commented on my own Shellac but Tropix is always a winner, especially Spring/Summer. Hope that helps a little :)

    Rockstar Shellac?

    I just watched a few different YouTube videos, searched posts on SG & then it was a case of trial & error for what works for you. I would also recommend FingerNailFixer she's amazing and learnt a lot from her vids. If your trained in Shellac it's not too tricky to pick up just very glittery &...

    Why do women hate women so much?

    I was brought up with the idea if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. I think beauty is all about perception and there's no formula or size that is "beautiful". I'm a size 8 & have had so many women ask "what's wrong with you, don't you eat??" Or "you want to get something...

    Swarovski crystals - where to buy?

    I have used Scatter Crystals and Crystal Parade the lady from Crystal Parade is lovely and always get crystal packs delivered in purple tissue paper, and she will call if there is any queries with your order etc. I started using Crystal Parade as they were slightly cheaper on a particular order...
