Whenever I think of nails, I
can’t stop but be surprised by how they can mean so many things to us. We can judge
people by the cleanliness of their nails or even by their shape (remember when
this was a thing?).
We can also use our nails as a pampering means, as a message board,
or to scratch our backside. We are nothing but resourceful if we have managed
to do so much with what is essentially a bed of dead skin.
Some like to say that you can
judge a person by their shoes, but I think nails are an even better criteria. Are
your nails square-shaped? You might be a conservative person. Do you prefer to
change your nail colour regularly or do you stick to your classics? Do you like
your natural short nails or do you prefer luscious gel nails? Do you ever go
out with chipped nail polish? Do you bite your nails? Do you like nail art? So
many questions and so many human characteristics they can define.
I’ve always seen getting my nails
done as my one high maintenance treat a month and my chance to be able to
gossip knowing that whatever I say will remain behind the salon door as I
leave. That has slightly changed since I moved to London and getting your nails
done went from £15 in Bucharest to £45+ here. I now think that getting your
nails done means you have succeeded in life and do it much less often than I
used to.
Nevertheless, I like to have well
looked after nails just as much so I have delved into finding the perfect
instruments and products to make them look like I go to the salon every month
even though I don’t. After years of research I can finally say I have found the
perfect products so naturally, I made a video all about it.
Basically, the recipe for success
is:
OPI’s Start to Finish Treatment + Nail polish of choice + Seche Vite = Salon Nails @ Home
Now you can watch the video and
see for yourself.
