Fabulous Pedicure Tip

A manicurist friend taught me this years ago and it works I'm not joking. In the cold winter weather you don't have to walk around with flip flops on when you get a pedicure - just put plastic wrap over your painted toes and then put your shoes or boots back on. I'm not joking it works. Now you have to give them at least 5 minutes to set and then you are good to put the plastic wrap. I don't know why it works but it works.

Duri Nail Polish Sprint-Summer Collection Review & Giveaway!

Duri Spring/Summer Nail Polish Collection & Giveaway!

As many of you know I am a licensed manicurist so I am blessed to have been asked to review this amazing Duri Spring/Summer collection.

Choose from colors like Windy City Roar, NYC Apple Envy, The O.C. Orange, Viva Strip Tease, Austin City Lites, DC Power Play, Baton Rouge Blues, Berry Boston Strong, Charleston Red, Sobe Soleil, Memphis Mint and Brooklyn Wine Bar!  One more amazing than the next. Each individual bottle sells for $6.00 and are available at www.duri.com

These beautiful colors are like an Easter basket for your nails.  I choose Baton Rouge Blues to demonstrate how amazing these colors are.

I found this polish to be a one-coat wonder.  Yes that is only one coat on my nails and as you can see the coverage is amazing.  Now not all of the collection can be accomplished with just one coat but all of the opaque colors certainly can.  Some are matte finish other have a glossy glow so you get the best of both worlds in this collection. Keep in mind that Duri nail products are environmentally friendly and free from DBP, Toluene and Formaldehyde.

Two (2) lucky Rosey The Coupon Coach or Nail Girls Manicure Mondays (this is my other blog) fans will have the chance to win a set of (3) of these beautiful Duri nail colors each.

Duri Nail Polish Review - 12 Shares of Desire!

As many of you know I am a licensed manicurist in the State of New Jersey.  Although I am not actively working at this time in a salon I do keep up with the latest trends and products through professional publications I receive on a monthly basis.  I also give free manicures to my friends and family to keep up my skills.  

So when the folks at Duri asked me to review their "12 Shades of Desire" collection inspired by the movie "50 Shares of Grey" slated for release this February, I was thrilled.

The company describes this collection as "12 distinct color hues, including intimate soft neutrals, bold take charge brights, dark sultry hues, sensual shimmers and a few shades of green with envy."

• Amoretto
• Pie In The Sky Green
• My Darling
• Parisien Tango
• Tatiana
• Playboy Bunny
• Ice and Desire
• Sensual Delight
• Hot Ice
• Runaway Bride
• Undisclosed Desires
• Grey Area

Although the photo at the top of this post does not do these colors justice, each is unique and beautiful in it's own way, you will love them all.  I had a very hard time deciding which one to choose to show you in my actual photo.  

(And yes I chopped off all my nails, stop crying they will grow back in no time flat!)

This is "Undisclosed Desires" don't you just love it?  This polish goes on like a dream smooth and coats evenly (a manicurists worst nightmare, polishes that streak and are very hard to blend.) 

Duri nail polish sells for $6.00 per.  You can purchase all 12 shades in this collection at the Duri's website or at a retailer in your area that carries Duri nail products.
