Ok... I must admit that occasionally I do like to spoil myself with a little primping... I figured that pre-California trip was a good time to get a manicure (and pedicure, of course!).
Now... the initial spa treatment rush is incredible! But the worst part? When it is all trampled in the heart-sinking crash... (Ok... maybe it isn't exactly a tragedy... but every woman out there knows EXACTLY what I'm talking about!!!)
What's your story? The it's-not-worth-it-because-they-always-chip-the-next-day? The oh-crap-I-smooshed-them-on-the-seatbelt-as-I-was-leaving? Or what about the I-could-have-sworn-they-were-dry-but-I-woke-up-with-my-bedding-imprinted-in-the-polish? Yeah.... been there, done that... multiple times...
What if I told you that this is me 13 days post-painting?

Hard to believe right? I don't have a single chip and they still have the day-one shine!
My savior is Lindsay at the Lipstik Beauty Lounge!!! I would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone (for nails and more!!). Her secret? Shellac!
In summary? It cures instantly (absolutely impossible to have any kind of "mushing") and it lasts for 2 weeks - which I've already seen for myself!! (I figured no one needed to see photos of my feet but I also promise that the pedicure has survived equally as well!) The manicure was a little more expensive than a regular, old polish job, but I think it's well worth it, especially considering it has lasted 10 times longer for me!
