Team Odyssey Nailed Top Spots at Nailpro Competition

It could not have been a more challenging Nailpro competition season with so many international competitors, both novice and veteran division. It's a very humbling experience to see so many amazing entries and to compete amongst the best in the industry. I personally love the friendship forged outside of the competition arena and be able to meet all these amazing talents that this industry has to offer.

Nail Studio Makeover

We spent 4 days working on this makeover for the nail studio, it's more spacious now and I could live here ! More work to be done in the classroom but that will have to wait till I catch my breath.

New Designs

I'm super exhausted this week working on new designs, but enjoying every moment of it! It's such a joy working with my hand models and my sis has been such a great help and motivation in translating these work into pictures. Here's a sneak peek of some of it taken with my own digital camera, I'm too excited to share this on my blog and I can't wait for the actual pictures to be poster ready :)

Creativity is flowing

I've redecorated my nail studio, cleared up heaps of nail stuff that I've bought and collected over the years and received some more new collections of colors and great stuff. I'm very excited to work on more new, radical designs and in the midst of working on a nail design book with my good friend Viv Simmonds. It's due to be released in September, hopefully !

Trying Out New Stuff & Techniques

I can't help getting bored so quickly with available nail designs, I guess it's a good thing because it pushes me off any limits as to what you can create with all the cool nail stuff out in the market. I think that nail artists these days are so priviledged as there are tons of products out there that you can use to your full advantage. Most importantly, one must not be afraid to step out of the box and try new stuff, you'll be surprised with the results.

NfuOh New Jelly Collections

I'm loving the new jelly collections

Mixed Media Fantasy 3D Class, Malaysia 2009

Sweet Spring

Cupcakes ?

Spotted Wendy with these cute cupcakes on her toesies!

Gambantei!

These talented Japanese nailists just completed their advance training with me and my two wonderful educators Yuka and Kumi.

Time for some Gel Practise !

I've been playing with acrylic nails so much that the HRTE class got me practising with gels again. Being in classes with all different nail techs around the world keeps me inspired and constantly grow as a nail artist. I love my job !
