Only last night had I posted on Lily and Herman's site that the people I would really like to do my nails were Samuel Sweet and Marian Newman - today I was Samuel's model for the Leeds session of 'The Scientist and The Geek'. Excited was not the word when Sam chose me!!! And I was shaking!!!
I got a copy of Doug Schoon's book and he signed it for me. I can't believe how easy to understand he makes the chemistry behind nail enhancements. I was so engrossed in what he was saying when he was doing his presentation.
Samuel had already prepped 2 of my nails (1 of which he had to do again because I'd caught it on a paper towel, I was very embarrassed!! :o
He started off showing us smile lines, then did a section on the apex and finished off with custom blending. It was fab, so glad I went, I have learnt so much more.
There was only about 10 of us for Samuel's section (15 for Doug's) and this worked out really well because it felt more like a classroom session and we were all able to see really close up when Samuel demonstrated.
I have come home with some goodies (of course) and am ready to have a practice before my nail biting mate comes round tomorrow for a full set!
KateYork - it was lovely to meet you, hope your set on your nail biter friend goes well!
Mrs Geek - really wanted to say hello to you as I was leaving but you were in the middle of a conversation so I didn't want to interupt, hopefully meet you another time :biggrin:
Big thank you to Doug and Samuel.
I hope everyone else who went to one of these sessions enjoyed it as much as me??
