What's New ?

Where did all the time go....this past couple of months have just been one project after another and eveything is finally going to be released under the VivCat label! We've been working on some cute nail accessories, nailart materials and work essentials that we would love to use for ourselves, so we think we should make it accessible to everyone.

First, there's the VivCat Nail Jewelry that is designed for the natural nails, and great on gel polished nails :

 

 

Then, there the VivCat NailSkins that is made from various types of materials, the first one launched being made from real snakeskin that is dyed and processed into snakeskin leather that takes your nail into high fashion :

Next up we will have all the cute and essential tools of the trade and VivCat GemBox that comes in pink and purple and plenty more !

I will post up a shopping link when it becomes available for purchase online.

Attendees to all NailQueen workshops and VivCat classes will be the first to experience these exciting products !

NailQueen Workshop European Tour

Europe is a dream - rich history, beautiful scenery, scrumptious bread & delicacy, chocolates & desserts and especially so many awesome talent in my class and working with the best nail techs in Europe. One of the experience that I always find to be true is that I never cease to learn even though I am teaching a class !

Thank you all my friends in Germany, Austria and Netherlands for such a memorable experience.

NailQueen Studio 2012 With A Touch Of Russian Culture

NailQueen Studio 2012 limited edition "Pandora Box" Certificates and Step by Step Workbook

When I developed NailQueen workshops, it became my mission to ensure that we bring the newest and most innovative techniques to the table so that all nailtechs who attend these workshops will truly be inspired and not only learn something new but also to think outside the box. This year, NailQueen Studio focused on the technique of Russian folkart decorative painting of Zhostovo using only gels, something that has never been done on nails with gel. Olga Menshikova, my guest artist for this class and I have been working on this months ahead of our class and all attendees received a beautiful limited edition step by step booklet  that they can bring home and revise after the class.

Design in progress...

Hands-on personal attention to each detail

We are so proud of the girls, some told me that they could not sleep prior to the day of class because they have not done folkart before and also worried that they could not keep up! Well, I have to say that the result of their creation after just 1 day of training speaks volume and with proper teaching aid and step by step guidance, they've not only outdone themselves but these are our first generation of Zhostovo gel artists in the making !

whether you're a seasoned professional or just starting out, new techniques never cease to inspire us

this is why we love our work so much and being able to make a difference in this industry

We have also covered many other design sculpture techniques in mixed media and here's the latest nail shape called the "Modern"

the creative people behind all these these art 

I think it's absolutely wonderful to add a touch of the west to the east; such inter-cultural influence in our nailart certainly brings a breath of fresh air to the nail industry and help us step outside our square and create a niche for ourselves.
