awesome rec for nails!!

hey everyone!
so recently, i got this nail treatment done on my nails - it's called Shellac by CND. it's fairly new, so if you havent heard of it, click here.

it's basically a nail polish, and after every coat, the technician puts your nails under a UV lamp for about a minute. after the top coat, your nails literally stay super super shiny and chip-proof for at least a week and a half. depending on how abusive you are on your nails, it can last for a month.

you can get normal colors and french tip - so you nails would look gorgeous for your wedding and the honeymoon!
i'm definitely doing this on my wedding day, because they looked gorgeous for a really long time, and i loved it. it also doesn't hurt your nails like getting acrylics or gels.

hope this helps some of you!

    I have heard of it before. And I have heard really good things about it. I might  have to give it a try sometime.

    it's really good - weird to see perfect nailpolish after a week when they'd  normally be chipped
    i'll definitely be doing this for my wedding

    My mother was telling me about this!!  She already made an appointment for the two of us to get our nails done!   Awesome to hear a good second opinion!

    The website says you should return to your nail professional for removal.  I find that a wee bit intimidating since I don't get my nails done regularly.
