LA Treatment of the Month: Minx Manicure

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

minxLA Make-Up Dublin is excited to announce that we are launching a new LA Beauty Therapy course. The students will learn a range of exciting treatments and we’re really looking forward to working with them!

Minx Manicures: This is just one of the fabulous techniques they will be learning with us! You might have seen this funky metallic look on Beyonce! You start with a fabulous collection of stickers which you can mix and match to create your own unique look for your nails. Each hand can be different, and you can even change the design from finger to finger. The look is created with a super-thin strip of film adhesive so no messy liquids. There is a lot of heat involved and as our students are learning you need a steady hand. But the end result is just total bling!

Designs can be plain, criss-crossed, glitter or a full-on metallic shine for your nails. You can go for a jungle look with leopard-stripes and some technicians also offer images like  Barack Obama. Wonder if Brian Cowen would look good on our hands? Ummm, maybe not! Perfect for a special night out, they can last for up to 8 days. But remember they are stuck-on so if you want them to last, be careful!

Tell us what you think of the Minx look!
