Acrylic/gel extensions black french and nail art

It's been a day of revelations in The Lady Cave @ Needy Nails Taupo on this TIPS ON TUESDAY 💅

Welcome to newbie Aroha wearing acrylic/gel extensions followed by Shellac black pool matte manicure with hotski to tchotchke feat nails. Revelations: also first time having a pro service, first time wearing Shellac to the point of asking WHAT IS SHELLAC... lovely gal, thank you for your patronage. Rachael sports LV, Pat sports ombre tye dye, Anja sports black french and nail art, Jess went Diva with long and very square with crucifix feats topped off with Carolyn and her pink and teal design.

Straight up - there are some bitches in this World! A local clothing business lady is getting ripped to shreds on her bizo page cos idle gossip mongers can't help but cause jelly drama and influence potential buyers before they can purchase. UGLY! Remember you clowns "Karma's a bitch". On the subject of bizo: You unpro cheats that are home working without declaring your income to WINZ etc and taxes to IRD, be on the lookout and tell your stupid mates to not publicist your availability cos i am sick of being told so and so is doing blah blah blah.... who gives a shit?... don't do others dirty work by carrying on the yarn...especially to ME about people i don't even know! THAT IS ALL!!!

Acrylic sculpts on nail crystal pink laser glitz and a layer of black MAC reflecting rainbow has a luminous paua shell effect and shaped stiletto

CONGRATS ON YOUR ENGAGEMENT: Kalo King

My moko Caroline is engaged for real... how the hell did that happen LOL...
Here's her nail journey yesterday - her wants in red and black with glitz and shaped stiletto (her new love nails) heheheee...
She is a nail biter and most days a nasty one... yesterday was not so bad so we went with the very best option: acrylic sculpts on nail forms (I used the gorgeous Tammy Taylor) powder and liquid (a gorgeous crystal pink). The colors are so not depicted in their true capacity in the pics... they are so bright. the red is bold and I tapped in some laser glitz (super super fine) and a layer of black MAC reflecting rainbow has a luminous paua shell effect. You may have guessed her favourite colors are Black and Red and not particularly in that order LOL.. hence why she has a ruby engagement ring.
Hope you enjoyed your night out in Vegas with Kelvin my girl... thanks for spending time with me yesterday and eating MY lunch (as per the usual)...
Nanny and Uncle love and wish you well.

Prepped and nail forms adhered
