Thank you lovely ladies, regular and new... it's been a cracker day in The Lady Cave @ Needy Nails Taupo 💅

A warm welcome to a lovely new clients (OMG K Herewini Dub what's sissy's name again LOL): white tip frenchies and red tiger stripe feats. Rosalie (pic5): shellac manicure, custom silver feats and 3D leopard design. Longtime since did Lindsay's nails (pic7): acrylic extensions + shellac neon coral and metallic gold and black nail art with crystals. KHD (pic3) chose white tip frenchies + holo gold leopard print feats. Mad loves for my ever faithful Abs, just like Peesh, supporting my choccy yummo goodie fixation... this was an acrylic removal, took all the length back down cos she grows so fast and into a beautiful shellac red/pink and chrome silver with big holo hex glitz feats BAMM! Lovely Lucy sports a silk overlay for strength followed by a shellac ombre manicure with design. Antonia had a silk nail overlay as well also followed with this super cute shellac manicure, pink, french sparkle and grey. Jessie had a shellac manicure with cute dots, stripes, feathers and color. Last but not least was Suze with her pink & white french with metallic silver feats and pretty shellac hearts. 

I've had a lot of people ringing my phone for bookings. PLEASE READ before you dial. Text only, and realize if i don't get time between clients, you won't get a reply till the end of my working day. I will never answer the call. Thank you to those clients whom offer to answer for me if my hubby's unavailable. Your kindness is appreciated but it's unnecessary thanks...those that know me, know you don't call my phone - THE END 😆.

Another booked out week and ladies, please, the only way to avoid disappointment and secure your booking is in advance or get on the Shortlist so if any cancellations occur on your day or time of preference, i can notify you.

How to apply 3D FIBER-LASH MASCARA APPLICATION

How to apply 3D FIBER-LASH MASCARA APPLICATION!

FYI: The 3D fiber-lash mascara is in 3 steps.
There are 2 hard cased tubes in the lovely leopard print design with matching holder case.
STEP 1: Apply the transformer gel first (the long tube).
Pump the brush a couple of times to work the gel onto the bristles.
Starting from the middle of your lashes (not at the lash line closest to the eyelid), apply the gel.
STEP 2: Pump the fiber-lash tube (the short tube) and apply to the lashes in the same manner as the transformer gel.
Before applying the fiber, pat/smooth the wand with your fingers to make the fibers adhere as the gel will pull the fibers from the wand as you applied.
STEP 3: Complete your application by finishing with the transformer gel.

NOTE: For longer and thicker lashes you can do more layers till you gain the look you want.
To remove I personally use a baby-wipe (I find home brand wipes are excellent and smell nice as well); fold over lashes and gentle squish the lashes between the wipe so the mascara adheres and wipes away clean.
DO NOT RUB AS YOU ARE LIABLE TO PULL YOUR NATURAL LASHES FROM THEIR SOCKET.
