Like any parents in the world – you wonder what to do – when you lil’ girl decide she wants to play mummy or fashion model.  Yes! i’ve been meaning to hunt down non toxic nail polishes for my daughter – who loves dressing up but hates the smell of grown up nail polishes. Albeit a bit expensive – i wouldn’t risk giving the kid hives because she might be allergic to some ingredients of the usual nail polishes.

Piggy Paint is as “Natural as Mud” in the sense that every ingredient in the polish is biodegradable with no traces or residues left behind, thus it would make an excellent addition to your mulch pile or as a feed for farm animals.

Our water-based nail polish is non-toxic, environmentally safe, hypoallergenic, with an odor that is extremely low, nearly nonexistent. It has the same look and durability performance as traditional kid polishes, but without the drawbacks of foul odors, toxicity, and damage to our environment and to your little ones’ nails.

June 10th, 2009Nail Spa

How many of you go and get your nails and feet done regular..??  in a nail spa..??  not just a girlfriend’s house.. or a party for you and the gals.  Like a real spa..??  so that your nails gets professional help..?? not just for nail art.. but for the wellness of your nails.

Well a nail spa is not like your neighbourhood facial place that also does nails.. or your toe nails by filing it down and painting it the color you want.  At a nail spa, one can expect a little more than that.. and you are supposed to get more pampering .. than the usual nail place.  A nail spa usually give you and your hands and nails .. a relaxing hand massage.. and spoils your nails and hands with lots of fabulous lotions.  The ones I go to.. they make you dip them in paraffin wax as well.  You can really feel the diff .. after using a exfoliation massage and then the dip.. and more massage.  Yes.. ! i do pay a little more.. than the usual nail place.. around the corner of my store.. but that means..i don’t have to buy so many piano sheet music that week if i am going to a nail spa.  Afterall, a girl needs some pampering every now and then eh.

When Easterly Showers Fall On The Sunny West Episode 6 was up for watching .. but i had a nail appt.  So what i did..??  of course .. i put the show on my USB key.. and then brought my laptop into the nail salon and watch it while i did my nails. Crazy awesome right..??  The other mummies there .. was really amused.. they asked if i mind they share the show with me.. i said.. not at all.  Now the nail salon lady boss is thinking of setting up a big screen.. and putting up tvb shows .. muahahhaha!!

August 26th, 2008Soft Hands All Year Long

I donch usually get the luxury of time to go for a manicure.. and we all know that taking care of our hands are very important. Even though i do alot of dishes and housework.. i still need to take care of myself.. and the most basic starts with one’s hand. What about you ..?? To keep my hands soft all year long.. i make sure to moisturize it .. every nite.. and as soon as i am done with my dishes.

But using the right stuff is very important as well. I was told that looking for a hand cream that has got petroleum in it prevents evaporation of water off the skin and with Shea butter .. it is not only soothing but moisturizing as well. Since shea butter has a high fat content it replenishes the fat content that one’s skin need.

Of course, taking it a step further is always good.. like grooming of your nails.. and having a DIY manicure is always a plus. I don’t use anything that is too expensive.. i believe that if you take care of your hands daily.. any cream will do.
