Nail Artists at Work in Sydney








Check out Samantha's Geisha girl ! I'm so proud to see her finished work, I had such a great time working with the class. This is only the stepping stone and I'm sure we'll see more wonderful work from her! Thank you Samantha for sending me the image and I really hope to see the rest share with us here.

Sydney







I just had the most wonderful trip to Sydney, beautiful country, warm and friendly people and I had the pleasure of training a bunch of very talented nail techs who does awesome work. Viv Simmonds, my host held a competition class prior to the show and her team scooped an amazing 15 awards in total, one would expect nothing less when groomed by a national champion with more than 38 awards and counting...

Buyers Beware : NfuOh Victorian Nail Enamel (Alert)




The real thing is a beautiful victorian corset figure-shaped bottle originally created by Nfu.Oh Korea in 17ml and beautiful finishing with embossed design on the bottles and the enamel is made in France. The copy version is printed with the Nfu.Oh logo, in a square or OPI-inspired bottle, and manufactured in China.

Beware Of FAKE NFUOH from China






Nfu.Oh products are getting so popular that there are copies emerging in the Malaysia and Singapore market. These copies are made in China and they claim that the Nfu.Oh Korean company manufactures in China which is untrue. Using nail products manufactured under questionable origin and sources is unsafe and irresponsible. So technicians, beware of being misled by such misinformation. Technicians who are familiar with Nfu.Oh products will recognize the difference right away but not to a novice or a person new to this brand. Currently these copies are spotted in YSnow Beauty KL and Ann Beauty JB. Will list out more when we discover them.
Please contact your area's distributor for verification of the resellers. For Singapore & Malaysia, you may contact Ecsalonce at 65-62381890 or email ecsalonce@pacific.net.sg for your nearest resellers. Visit http://nfuoh.blogspot.com for details.

I'm loving the pointy, sexy look of stilettos. Did this on my left hand and added some bling for a different look.
