love ::

i have some new loves. one is the new love rings i got for my girls for valentines day, below on a few of us, and the oher is O.P.I.'s Axxium gel polish.

::basically, they paint on the gel in layers after they have buffed your nails to perfection- clear and then your choice of the 12 OPI colors currently offered (Lincoln Park After Dark is one of them!). under a UV light the gel dries in relatively no time and forms a glossy coat that lasts.

:: only certain salons/ manicurists are able to do this service. it costs $35 here in Boston at Beantown Nails (go to Chi- she's amazing), but if you get a manicure every week anyway it ends up saving you money.

:: look how shiny mine are- far right corner. read more pros/cons (all pros to me) here at Glamour.
