Today it will not be a food post. It's pampering time!! I believe all girls must have both their eyes BLING when it comes to manicure/pedicure. Even I my own do have a collection of nail polish and gadgets, so that i could do some DIY at home.
Today i'll be doing Gel Nail. Gel nails are also known to be the most natural looking artificial nails available. A gel nail is thin and flexible, just like your own and does not look fake.

Only one disadvantage, once your gel nails come off, your natural nails are usually a lot longer, but a lot more brittle! So give it a break as 2 weeks interval before you applied a new one.
A Basic Steps when getting a Gel Manicure :
Getting Your Nails Ready
Take off old nail polish
Trim your nails
Push back your cuticles
Buff the top of your nails
Coating Your Nails
Apply the primer
Brush an even coat of UV nail gel onto each nail
Repeat with a second coat of UV nail gel
Apply a third coat of UV nail gel
Finishing the Gels
Use the buffer to finish off the shaping
Wash your hands with gentle soap
For those who wanted to try out please book earlier to arrange for free slot available. Details of location and contact can be seen at the end of the post.

How i wish i had my own nail saloon. I would definitely be happy the rest of my life if i owned one, i would wake up every morning feeling happy to go work or even work extra working hours. Maybe one day!! Who knows.
Picking nail color was the hardest part, I've been notoriously fickle especially in term of color selection. I would always wanted to try up another color but always end up with something purple, lavender or lilac. My life is indeed purplish. Yes, i'm obsessed with purple, so what?
Janice pick a pink shade with a touch of floral pattern sticker, to suit her warm skin tone.
May even give compliment that her nail shape is pretty.
Janice pinkish floral design nail art
Carmen pick sky blue and laces sticker.
And me, no doubt PURPLE again.*facepalm*

The only thing was one of my gel color peeled off the second day, might due to i was doing my laundry on the same day i applied the gel. Is it possible? No idea. Carmen and Janice gel lasted a month.
But May did ask me to go back for a redo.
