Beauty Tips for Women: Nail Savvy Cuticle Remover

IMAG1537Today I’m doing a beauty product review of Nail Savvy Cuticle Remover.  I purchased this item from Sally Beauty Supply.  It retails for $6.49.  This is my first time using this brand.  I’m always looking for cuticle removers to try and it was on clearance.  I liked that this product was a brush on, which provides more control during application.  However, this was the only thing I liked about this product.  It dries up very quickly no matter how much you apply.  So when I tried to push my cuticles it had no slip.  I felt that it didn’t remove the cuticles well when compared to Sally Hansen Instant Cuticle Remover, which is what I normally use.  I would not recommend this product at all.

 

I give this product, 0 brain.

Beauty Tips for Women: Sally Girl March Ice Cream Shoppe Collection

Beauty product review and manicure article heading your way.  I had the great fortune to have won the entire March Ice Cream Shoppe Collection from Sally Girl Cosmetics & Nail Color.  The colors from left to right are: Chocolate Chip, Mint Chip, Cherry Chip, and Grape Sherbert.

I decided to do a skittles manicure with no base color.  I was able to get opacity with three coats for Mint Chip, Cherry Chip, and Grape Sherbert.  Since Chocolate Chip is more of a translucent white, it took four coats and still it was very light but I decided to stop at four.  Nail Art Polish Beauty tips for Women 367Nail Art Polish Beauty tips for Women 368

I couldn’t resist adding some stamping to this manicure.  I decided I would play off the title of the collection and stamp some ice cream.  I used Cheeky plate CH10, CH17, and Jumbo Plate 7.

I used the stamping decal method. I failed to take pictures of this step.  I just simply forgot.  Basically you stamp the image and let it dry completely on the stamper.  Then you paint the image.  You can paint it either with polish or acrylic paint and then let that completely dry.  Add a thin layer of top coat to your nail and wait to it gets tacky and then stamp the image on.  The squishy stamper is the best to us for this method.  Nail Art Polish Beauty tips for Women 371Nail Art Polish Beauty tips for Women 372Nail Art Polish Beauty tips for Women 373

It was my first time using this particular stamping method and I love it.  I like how the images came out.
