Special Saturday Pedicure

Today my mani became a pedi. My Mom surprised me by taking me to a nearby nail salon to have my first ever pedicure! It was very fun. I didn't know what to expect when I went in but I thought it was fun experiencing a new thing. It's much better and easier than painting your own toes.

My salon had a kid sized chair. I got the pink chair. It was the one closest to the adults so I could sit by my mom.

First they had me soak my feet in bubbling warm water with something that sprinkled in. I am not sure what it is called. I asked my mom what it was and she said it makes the bubbles in the foot bath.

After trimming my nails, she painted them in a color that I had picked out. I forgot to get the name of the polish (sorry!) to post but it is very similiar to the polish my friend Elena gave me only a little darker. To see the polish Elena gave me - click here.

Then we walked over and to where you dry your toes under a light. They also have a spray like Elena's you can use if you are in a hurry. It was empty and my Mom's toes were taking forever to dry. Mine dried fast.

All in all, it was the best new thing ever! I can't wait til I go back. But I still need to paint my nails when I get home. After all it's Saturday!

Saturday Manicure on Friday with Elena

Hi everybody! This is my friend Elena. She came home with me after school yesterday and we did our nails together. A few weeks ago, Elena went on a shopping trip and brought me back some nail polish. We used it to paint our nails. I needed practice.

 A good tip  is to put wax paper under your hands to keep the polish off the table.

Another tip is I use a blow dryer to dry my nails faster. Elena uses a spray that you buy then put on your nails. I think I am going to have to get some of that spray!

This is us all done! Don't we look good? It's a purpley pink color. It looks purple in the bottle but more pink when you put it on. But I love it! Did you paint your nails today? It's Saturday!



Girlie Nails and the Saturday Manicure

Girlie Girl Nail Stickers


Guess what? It's Saturday again! That means it's time for another Saturday Manicure!

This week it's Girlie Girl Nail Stickers in white with red hearts. The hearts also come in blue in the same set. I wish that I had found these to wear to my friend's sleepover party. I think the other girls would have loved them!

Even though they are a little bit long sometimes, they can be cut to the right size. And they are great to wear on your nails and don't bother you at all.

The secret to keeping the stickers on is to put a coat of clear nail polish on top of the stickers. Then to remove, use nail polish remover as you would normal polish to remove the top coat then pull off the sticker.  Simple!

I would love to see any great manicure ideas that you have! Check back later!
