Nails and lashes at home: can they EVER look truly professional?
So, if you’re a regular here on SHEmazing! you’ll know all too well about how we feel when it comes to trips to the salon.
If not, then let us summarise for the class.
From awkward small talk to the fear of not leaving absolutely thrilled with the result, the whole experience isn’t always the “pamper session” it’s promised to be.
That’s why the idea of being able to DIY-beauty in the comfort of our fluffy pyjamas while watching an episode of Say Yes To The Dress is the true meaning of happiness.
So while having our lashes done professionally gives us all-sorts of personal space issues (not to mention bank balance woes) applying them at home is delightfully carefree: we don't look like a hot mess on a night out but neither do we have to endure the trauma of salon eyelash application
Getting our nails done can be a very glamorous affair but not when we leave feeling like Edward Scissor hands.
We’ve gone old school here at SHEmazing! HQ and are all about those stick on falsies which have come a long way since we first dabbled back in the Nineties.
No more will you spend 20 minutes filing them down so to not injure yourself or anyone else.
No more will you be left with open wounds after peeling away the thick layer of glue from your finger tips.
And no more will you have to settle for the French tips that look as natural as a Geordie Shore housemate.
Whether you chose to paint them yourself or get the look for less with some amazing nail art, falsies are the perfect way to transform your talons.
We've been pretty bowled over by KISS for lashes and ImPRESS for nails – available almost everywhere and with a huge range of styles, the brand is gaining a mighty whack of traction online.
So pish-posh to the salon, we say! And with prices starting at €7.49, you’ll be saving yourself a pretty penny too.
