Burst out <\/em><\/strong>of winter shoes and spring into<\/em><\/strong> sandal season!<\/p>\n We were created for beautiful things. It is part of God placing eternity in our hearts. Just think about it: Does anyone seek out a stinky, swampy, grey environment to relax in? No!<\/p>\n Thus the manicure and pedicure! I see my nails as a possibility for pops of happy color. But I\u2019m extremely chemically sensitive, and I can\u2019t stand the smell of polish. When I do get through doing my nails, after a few days the polish chips, and I have to start all over again. Booo! But then I was introduced to Jamberrys.<\/p>\n Jamberry\u2019s are high-quality vinyl, heat- and pressure-activated nail wraps that last for weeks at the fraction of the cost of a salon visit.<\/p>\n Yes, please! The Jamberry Pedicure Now let\u2019s get Jammin’. Make a cup of tea, get comfy, put on your favorite music, and do something for you! Or grab a girlfriend for more fun, giggles, and conversation.<\/p>\n What you will need<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n A hair dryer, an orange stick, tweezers, rubbing alcohol, a nail file, sharp clippers or rounded cuticle scissors, and cotton balls<\/p>\n 1.<\/strong><\/span> Clean feet are happy feet. Using an orange stick or a cuticle stick, push back the cuticle and wipe the nail bed with rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover. This helps remove natural oils.<\/p>\n 2.<\/strong><\/span> Size nail wraps and make the cuts shown in the following illustration. You will need to slightly round the edges for the little toes.<\/p>\n 3.<\/strong><\/span> Use tweezers to remove and lift the wrap off of the clear plastic. Do your best to not touch them with the natural oils on your hands. Gently warm the wrap 3 – 5 seconds with dryer and place on your toe nail.<\/p>\n 4.<\/strong><\/span> Once you have it in the right place, apply firm pressure around the edges with an orange stick to begin sealing and smoothing out the wrap. Trim the remaining tip with little rounded cuticle scissors or sharp clippers. Heat and smooth out again, applying firm pressure and paying attention to the edges and tip.<\/p>\n 5.<\/strong><\/span> Wait till cool, then file straight down to remove excessive wrap. (I always like to end with a little more heat and pressure.)<\/p>\n<\/a>Do we, as women, ever feel good or confident when we look like we have mopped the floor with our face and hair? Nope! Being sloppy and unkempt does nothing to make us feel beautiful. And the way we feel about ourselves, positive or negative, can be acted out! That’s why I choose beautiful and positive!<\/p>\n
