NEW NAIL PRODUCT FASTER THAN POLISH

Minx Nails is one of the newest products launched earlier this year 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 $45 to $80 or some salons are using it as an add on. For more information and to locate a salon visit www.MinxNails.com. - Shelley Waugh (WeddingsHoneymoons.com | May 22, 2008).

YOUR POLISH CAN BE EXCITING!
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. - Gina Greschner (WeddingsHoneymoons.com | June 19, 2007)

It’s a collection of high-shine, sheer shades that are fun to wear on their own or layer a color over your favorite polish. Shades are Blueberry Burst, Grapefruit Glimmer, Grape Shimmer, Banana Blaze, Cherry Fizz, Pina Colada Pop, Apricot Freeze, and Strawberry Sizzle. SRP: $5.50.
