Nail bites - Spring get togethers

We can now get together with friends and family ... in a way. Not in the same way as we have been used to doing before the lockdown, but a more restrained and sedate way. We are getting closer to the day we can finally start to see clients!
I have been looking through my files of photos showing different designs and colours. I am so excited for the day when I can finally get to see my clients and give them a gorgeous manicure. Like having your hair cut and styled, a pretty manicure lifts the spirits. I like to compliment - and clash with! - my clothes.

Sooooon!

Yes, soon we will be back to a new normal!

People are going to work where they can, although working from home is going to be the preferred way to work where possible. 

People look different too - wearing clinical masks, clinical gloves. Hand sanitiser is readily available for customers going into shops. Hand washing of course is encouraged as often as possible. When we pay for our goods it is mostly by contactless card payment to an assistant behind a Perspex shield. All at a 2 metre distance.      

As a mobile nail technician, my role is to go into a client’s home to give them a manicure, spending up to two hours with that person. So, certain precautions need to be taken:    

• Nitrile gloves
• Face mask
• Face visor/shield
• Shoe covers 
• Exceptional hygiene both for myself and my client.   

Things will be different. But we will make it work, with a smile!

I am looking forward to seeing my clients once again, and creating a manicure they are proud to wear on their nails.

Nail bites - when lockdown is over ...

I’m looking forward to the day when I can see all my lovely clients again!
I’m excited to hear all about your experiences of the lockdown, what you have been doing to fill your time. Lots of people have been buying spa goodies from my Love Your| collection, so I hope that you enjoy that bit of luxury at home. We will have missed out all of Spring, we will be into Summer by July ... what colours will you want on your nails?

Nail bites - colourful Summer colours

I decided to try some different colours together, in a different design.
It is inspired by a kind of Pringle pattern, although I haven’t tried to rigidly copy it. I have used pink & yellow, blue & pink, green & yellow, blue & yellow, pink & orange ... I think each of the colourways could be worn quite easily as an accent nail against the base colour - I like them all!

I never tire of it!

Nature is such a wonderful gift to us! 

Most of the time most of it is overlooked, but in the recent strange times of a lockdown, something we could never have imagined just six months ago, each day presents a new and wonderful gift to us.
Today’s walk was equally impressive - the wonder of fresh blooms, the bright and vividly coloured treasures just awaiting the bee’s gentle intrusion. And we are the fortunate guests able to take a peek at these treasures!
Taking photos just doesn’t do these jewels any justice, but I still take the photos! Just to keep a tiny bit of Nature’s work.

Nail bites - my hands are so dry!

It’s a fact of today’s life - we wash our hands so much more than we used to. We use hand sanitiser - which for all the moisturiser it might contain, it still certainly dries my hands out. I have noticed the skin around my nails is suffering too. 

I do all the right things:
I wear marigold gloves to wash up and clean, I use hand cream, I use cuticle oil. If I don’t keep up this routine of replenishing moisture I notice the effects almost straight away. It’s a very fine balance!

I decided to give my poor hands a special treat - a Collagen Glove! I have used these on clients without really knowing what they felt like. Now I do! And they are so simple to use!

Pop a glove on each hand. 
And ... relax! Around 20-30 minutes. Or longer if you are perhaps watching something on TV, or listening to a podcast. I massaged each hand a little, to ensure the lovely oils were evenly distributed. 
If you haven’t used these before, you might notice that the fingertips of the gloves can be removed. This allows you to file your nails while at the same time as your hands soak up the luxurious oils.
Then gently remove the gloves, and massage the remainder of the oils into the hands.

My hands felt so soft, and hydrated, and ready for anything. I can certainly recommend this as an easy and affordable luxury treat for your hands. I am so glad I added them to my Love Your| selection of home spa products.

Easy peasy to use, and easy to purchase - either contact me direct, or via the website. I’m ready to send your very own spa treat to you!

“We must just KBO”

When life gives us lemons ... we make lemonade. We are not programmed to give up. We adapt to whatever life throws at us. And sometimes life throws some pretty big rocks! 
The great Sir Winston Churchill had a phrase he used at the beginning of each day and at the end of every telephone call: 

Keep buggering on.

And that is what we do!

We are living through strange times, very strange. The like of which never been experienced before. Dare I say unprecedented! 
So we adapt, adjust, and change - not by choice but always with our stoic British good humour. 
Cheers to us all; we will one day view these times as history, a chronicle of a very strange period of time.
I came across the photo below and I think it describes perfectly - there is no obstacle to our success and well-being, nothing is impossible, we will carry on together in the face of all adversities - we will achieve the seemingly impossible.

KBO!
