Don’t Miss The BB Couture 4th Of July Sale!

The Well-Heeled Society Reviews BB Couture

There’s a lot to be said about patience. For me, sitting still long enough to apply base coat, two layers of nail polish AND a top coat is is equivalent to – well – watching paint dry.

Enter BB Couture Nail Polish, which offers exclusive, all-inclusive 4 in 1 formula polish that’s fast-drying AND has built-in basecoat, strengtheners and topcoat. But those are not the best benefits: the line has no Formaldehyde, Toluene or DBP, eliminating the health risks associated with most polish.

So I have been putting the Tropical Sunset shade through a pedi test for the past ten days. I must say I am impressed with the wearability. The vibrant hue – which is like a deep coral against my skin – definitely got me through this past monsoon of a weekend. And only a touch-up was needed, thanks to me alternating between summer sandals and work pumps. I am impressed by the assorted shades found within the Brights Collection (but I’m sure Twilight fans will fiend for the Vampire Bite, found in the Darks Collection!

But make sure you check out their collection of new colors, which has some of the most intense shades for the summer (Venom, anyone?). Personally, I tend to gravitate towards the pinks and corals, so I will be switching up to Love Drunk this weekend.

Waterless Pedicure: A Greener, Safer Way To Go

I came across this blog today and wanted to share the suggestion and the questions and answers from Precision Nails. I really like the idea. I have never been offered a Waterless Pedicure but I would like to have the experience. I wonder how many nail technicians would think this is a good idea. I hope that you will comment on this subject. I would be interested in the feedback and if clients are open to such and idea. 

Why waterless? Eliminating the water eliminates: • the expense of a footspa, including maintenance and parts; • the space required to install it; • the expense of plumbing, including labor and permits; • 12- 15 gallons of water each pedicure; • the expense of water and sewage fees; • the risks associated with water-borne bacteria; • the time to clean a footspa, or any other container; • the labor involved in cleaning; • the expense and disposal of disinfection products; and • the need for a pedicure-equipment cleaning log. After considering all the benefits of waterless pedicures, I can’t imagine doing it any other way, but the choice is yours.

Opposites Attract Creme Gray BB Couture Nail Polish

This is one of the most requested colors by nail techs.  “Katie Did” reviewed the new shades by BB Couture.

BB Couture For Nails – Opposites Attract

I’m in love people! This colour is freaking gorgeous! Opposites Attract is a creme gray with something you could call silver glitter in various sizes, it kind of creates a glass fleck effect, oh and it also has some black glitter in it, the colour is so unique and gorgeous I can’t stop staring at it!

I didn’t use base or top coat because I wanted to try how the 4 in 1 Formula works so I will keep you updated on this.I used 2 coats here, application was great and it dried pretty fast! You can always click on the pics to see in detail the colour!
