We all love a perfect manicure. But here’s the issue that many women face when it comes to them – How can I keep my nails both healthy and beautiful? Luckily enough, we have a solution for you. One of the most popular trends in the nail industry at the moment is the SNS Dipping Powder. If you haven’t heard of dipping powder or have no idea how it works, no worries, we got you covered.
It’s quite a simple process: instead of directly applying colorful nail polish in a liquid form, you apply an adhesive base and then proceed to dip the nail in colored powder. Afterwards the nail is sealed with a top coat and ta-dah! Your nails are on point.
So now you might be asking what is the advantage of using SNS Dipping Powder? First of all, it’s a healthier option, as the base is specially made to strengthen your nail instead of damaging it. It’s all about keeping it healthy and strong! Besides, when it comes to drying part, you won’t need to put your hands into the UV light. Is that amazing?! Although UV lights are vastly used, there’s no denying that they are harmful, especially if used very frequently.
Another advantage is that they are also lasting – up to 14 days or more, of everyday use. So say goodbye to chipped polish! You’ll be able to do tasks without worrying that you will ruin your nails. Because overall, there is nothing that looks worse than chipped polish! And speaking of color, SNS has a collection of over 400 shades. Expect a variety of shiny, matte or sparkling colors of every color, which is also a great aspect for nail art. It’s a great start if you’re looking to experiment with some new nail trends and designs.
Overall, we can see the reason why SNS Dipping Powder is getting widely popular. It is a different, quality product that any woman should try at least once. You’ll most probably love the results!

We know false lashes are still thriving, but a new trend seems to slowly take their place: namely eyelash extensions. More and more beauty gurus seem to opt for this alternative, and in this article we are going to explore exactly what this procedure is, along with its pros and cons. So before you decide to try them out yourself, you know what you’re doing. Eyelash extensions require maintenance and commitment but in my opinion they are well worth it!
THE PROCEDURE:
It’s safe to say that unless you are a trained expert, do NOT attempt to apply extensions yourself. Besides the obvious risks of an eye infection, you could also end up ruining your natural lash, which is definitely not worth it. So do your research for a trained professional in your area that has great reviews!
Now, let’s talk a bit about the procedure. An eyelash extension is carefully applied on each of your natural lashes with a semi-permanent glue that is meant to hold them in place. Those extensions will enhance your natural lashes, giving them both length and volume. Sounds amazing, right? And the experience is overall so relaxing, most people fall asleep. You let the technician place under eye pads for protection and then close your eyes and let them do their job.
MAINTENANCE:
So, you decided you want to try out extensions. You should be aware it takes a bit of work to keep them beautiful. Make sure that you steer clear from water and humidity after your appointment. Avoid face oils and oil-based cleansers, as they will damage the lashes. If they look a bit tangled, swipe a spoolie brush over them. By doing this on a daily basis, you will keep your extensions clean and fresh looking for several weeks!
THE BENEFITS:
The great thing about them is that obviously, you won’t have to use mascara anymore! Your natural look will improve, and your eyes will look as young and beautiful as ever. They’re customizable, so you can basically get the perfect lashes to compliment your face – experts are there for a reason, to help you get the best results possible.
Another great benefit of getting eyelash extensions is that you won’t have to bother using falsies anymore. Also, you don’t risk yanking your own lashes off everyday. For many women, it can be an annoying process, especially if you’re used to applying false lashes almost every day. It’s going to save you a lot of time!
Overall, this procedure is worth every penny. Not only do you get a very relaxing experience at the salon, being pampered after a long day, but you will enjoy the results weeks after! Make sure you religiously follow the instructions your beautician gives you,and your lashes will continue to look amazing until your next appointment.

We all know that a beautiful manicure is quite the important detail when it comes to looking put together and fashionable. And if you’re the type of woman who wants to have her nails on point and always fresh, then the arrival of spring will give you the perfect opportunity to try
1. THE NUDE FRENCH
If you’re searching for a timeless look that will complement any outfit, then opting for a nude french manicure is the way to go. It looks clean, youthful and the nude shades are perfect for spring. However, if you want to go one step further, then try out colored/dipped tips. While still looking classy, a pop of color such as orange or teal will add more fun to the look.
2. GEOMETRIC DETAILS
Geometric patterns have been all the rage for a while now. And if you’re a fan of geometric shapes when it comes to jewelry and clothes, why not add them to your nails? Choose a chic, pastel colour such as pink or yellow for the base, and be creative! Add lines, triangles, circles – be them symmetrical or not. Make them look as fun as possible, because messy is the new trendy.
3. A NEW APPROACH TO RED
We know you can never go wrong with red nails. They’re feminine, elegant and ready to bring any look to the next level. But this spring, it’s time to give the classic red nail a twist. Be it negative space (leaving the beds of the nails blank) and adding the red only on the tips, outlining the nails with white or black lines or even writing initials/words on them – it’s time to add a subtle yet chic detail to this nail design.
One last important tip: this spring we’re going to for shorter, mostly oval shaped nails. Natural, practical shapes are considered quite hot at the moment, and we couldn’t be happier about it!
