If you would like a shellac nails manicure, nearly all beauty salons offer them.
To finish up, I applied the CND top coat and is all set
using a UV light. Mine were just painted with normal polish and top coat
on line and at beauty supply shops. Enjoy a glass of bubbly, then an Arbonne Luxury Facial followed by shellac
nails and Toe treatment. It has been four days with them now and they still look absolutely fabulous and theres not a
scratch or chip in sight.
