Besides dressing up appropriately for any occasions, dressing up your nails are critical too. As I was invited to attend Spirit of Enterprise Awards 2015 gala dinner, Venessa from Beautify Nails has kindly sponsored one Gelish Manicure with design and one Gelish Pedicure with design so that I can totally well groomed for this event.
Venessa has been a certified professional nail artist for at least 6 years hence she is very experienced in terms of her skills. On top of that, she listens to her customers and incorporate what they want into the design. When I went over to her home salon, she asked me if I had any designs in mind. I didn't have the time to look through magazines for inspiration, so all I told her was that I wanted bling bling nails but yet I wanted French manicure for that classy look. At the same time, I said Chanel was one of my favourite brand. She totally understood what I wanted and combined my requests into my dream nail art design. I was in awe with her talent!
Let's take a look at how Venessa did her magic on my nails to achieve the look that I want.
As I had gelish nail polish on my nails before, she had to remove the previous nail polish before she can start working on my nails.
Removing the cuticles...
Buffing the surface just a bit for the hellish nail polish to have a better bonding to the nails.
Applying the base coat for the nails.
There were a few more steps, like putting the hand into the UV dryer applying the gelish nail polish and repeating the steps again, applying the bling bling Swarovski crystals on individual nails etc.
And the final step before the hands go into the UV dryer is applying a top coat to seal the design securely.
I am totally in love with my nails... No one has this design before. Thanks Venessa for the wonderful manicure and pedicure!
As for my toenails, we decided to go for a sexy red nail color with just a bit of design on the big toe nail.
A close up of the design.
The cost of my gelish manicure with design is only S$80. Most salons will charge more than S$80 for so many crystals and two Chanel add-ons.
The cost of my gelish pedicure with design is only S$38.

OMG... Just look at my super ultra bling bling nails! If you look at them closely, you will see that each nail had a different nail art design. Vanessa was amazing to be able to think of different design for each nail within a small time period. Only very creative and talented manicurist can do that. Kudos to Venessa!
