What's on Katy Perry's Nails?

November 16, 2011, New York City
Katy's Precious Metals look
Celebrity manicurist Pattie Yankee created the designs for Katy Perry’s nails during her recent concerts at Madison Square Gardens. Katy decided on Dashing Diva’s DesignFX nail appliqué “Precious Metals” for one of her looks, left.

The nail service is launching this December at participating Dashing Diva salons and other spas and salons nationwide in the United States. The service is about US$35 and up.
Grooming your finger & toe nails

MIRROR NAIL WINNER
Jessica-Marie Ellison, George Brown College, won the 2009 Nail Technician of the Year at the 15th annual Canadian Hairdresser magazine Mirror Awards. A panel of 11 judges reviewed over 200 entries to select finalists in 23 categories for the awards held at the Fairmont Royal York Hotel, Toronto.
Nail product faster than polish
Minx Nails is a product that enables a bride to take a photo of her wedding dress, and order nails that match the pattern of her gown (pictured left). Or she can order a traditional French manicure with a modern twist – a white tip that matches the white lace of her dress to match her  manicure perfectly with her bridal gown.

Bridesmaids can match their manicure to the exact same shade of their dresses or  choose designs, graphics, or photos of the couple on their fingertips. The nails don't smudge or chip and good for close up photos.

It's a professional product that is only available in salons. It is a flexible film as opposed to a polish, but like nail polish, the product can be used on either natural nails or on false nails. The flexible film is available in foil metallics, personalized graphics and photo-quality designs. There are no chemicals used for the application or removal of the nails, there are no fumes or mess. No drying time is required. The product can be easily removed by placing the nail under a heat source (a hair dryer will do), and then gently peeling off the Minx from side to side and moisturizing the nail after removal.

Prices range from US$45 to US$80 or some salons are using it as an add on. For more information and to locate a salon visit www.MinxNails.com. - SW
Your polish can be exciting!

by Gina Greschner
Nail art is becoming more popular and is another way to accessorize yourself and the wedding party.

For brides, a French manicure on the toes is elegant and timeless. A coat of clear sparkle polish can be applied on top for added glamour.

Be creative with your toes by adding crystals to your polish in your own custom design. Crystals can be found at a drugstore or beauty supply or craft store.

Remember – less is often more. When adorning your toes, go sparingly. If you have never done your own nail art, a practice run may be required.

To Apply Crystals:

- Let polish dry. Use a small dab of nail glue or clear polish on the area you are applying the crystals.

- Use tweezers to pick up the crystal. Gently press into glue or polish.

- Complete the design and apply topcoat.
