Have You Been Minxed Yet?
If you follow celebrity fashion or keep in touch with the latest music videos, you might be wondering why the nails that the ladies are sporting look extra spunky these days. It is thanks to a revolutionary new nail treatment called Minx made from flexible film strips applied to the nails using a heat lamp. The high gloss, long wearing coating takes about 15-20 minutes for application and needs absolutely no drying time, therefore avoiding accidental smudging or denting. They are supposed to last for 1-2 weeks without chipping. To remove them at home you just warm up the film with a hair dryer and peel it off.
So, if you are tired of your run of the mill, timid polishes and can’t stand fake nails either, check out Minx’s stunning array of selection. The solids are anything but boring (think gold metallic like Beyonce in “Single Ladies” or chrome silver) .
The patterns range from intricate, delicate bridal laces to bold and brash animal prints. You could even custom design a favorite photo into a nail coating. How is that for a choice? If you are worried about any harsh chemicals in the formula, you can relax. Since it requires only heat for application and removal, it contains no harmful substances and is totally eco-friendly.
This hot new trend sported by the likes of Beyonce, Rihanna, Mariah Carey, Pink, Fergie, Christina Aguilera, Victoria Bekham among others, can now be found at Spa Nordstorm Escape. Or, to find a Minx nail salon in your part of the country, try the spa finder at Minxnails.com.

Here’s Beyonce’s new ad for Emporio Armani’s Diamonds. I don’t know about you, but she’s always so perfectly polished and gorgeous that it’s almost boring to me. She’s like that popular girl at school whose sweaters never peel, whose hair never gets flyaways and whose shoes never get scuffed. Sigh. Plus, I think I’ve seen this photo before, like 5 times.
