    Gigi's wise words

    My last day is the 23rd as I'm at my employed job on Xmas eve. Have booked a couple in 28th and 30th but not busting a gut any more. Yes I love the money but I want to enjoy the few days with my family. If clients go elsewhere then they really weren't that loyal. I've been posting about...

Originally I did quite a lot of Gelish but found clients didn't comeback for follow up appointments. I would order new colours as people asked but found that it was getting expensive...

    Gelish Tumberline Violet

    I ended up getting rid of timberline violet. Total waste of money IMO as needs to be dabbed on doesn't give the coverage from the brush. Was disappointed with emerald dust and high bridge too as wanted a full glitter and I feel they are better layered over top of a base colour x
