Safe to say I am now Jamberry-obsessed
Orchid Bouquet 
I was searching through Instagram hashtags for manicures a few weeks ago,I have been on the hunt for a safe alternative to nail polish for years that would actually work! (I have tried quite a few other polishes and nail stickers, that were free of harmful chemicals, but they never worked properly and I would always end up going back to my old trusty chemical filled products because at least 'they last'?!) I stumbled upon one of Stacey Miller's @stacy__k on Instagram (Seriously you should all go follow her, she always shares the most gorgeous nails, & awesome workout posts that always inspire me to get off my butt & get moving!!) We got to talking over E-mail and discovered that we were both entrepreneurs She is an Independent Consultant for Jamberry Nails you can check out her website to place your order, so we decided it would be fun to do a product review for you guys here using the Orchid Bouquet Nail Wraps! - I knew that I wanted to do something very springy' & fresh & they actually have an entire line using the Pantone Colour of the Year - Radiant Orchid (which just so happens to be one of my absolute favourite colours) so this seemed like a pretty easy choice for me!! & in no time at all there they were in my mailbox - Thanks Stacy !!
Colour of theYear - Radiant Orchid Jamberry Nails
What are Jamberry Nails?

  The wraps are a solid fild covering that can be applied directly to the nail to achieve a look not found anythwere else. This special material they use is both pressure and heat activated to create a water tight bong to your nail! The shields are made in the USA, using no harsh chemicals and are latex free!
This new nail treatment can be applied in about 15 minutes at home. With over three hundres styles to choose from, these designer wraps are made to last up to two full weeks on fingers and found or MORE on your toes! Unlike traditional nail polish, they wont chip, and require no drying time. Achieve professional quality manicure and pedicures at a fraction of the cost with Jamberyy Nails!! 
You get 4 full applications  from 1 sheet of Jamberry nails which costs $15 to order (so that breaks down to just $3.75 per application MUCH cheaper than you would pay at a salon)
Stacy offers a buy 3 get 1 FREE deal - It's an awesome way to get a few coordinating designs, so that you can mix and match and create a bunch of unique looks!!

Jamberry Nail Application Instructions

Step #1. Prep your Nail - Clean unploshed nails with soap and warm water, swipe each nail bed with rubbing alcohol whipe and push back cuticles. Some of the designs are clear/ translucent & can also be applied over a fresh coat of nail lacquer.

Step #2. Match nail (finger or tow) to the nail wrap that best fits. (if between wraps they say so for the narrower to achieve a better result but the large ones can be easily filed or trimmed to fit the nail perfectly) 

Step #3. Peel off nail wrap from backing with twiizers and warm with a blow-dryer or mini-heater for 3/5 seconds, or until soft and flexible. Minimize touching the adhesive part with your fingers!

Step #4. When warm, press the wrap onto the nail. Apply firm pressure all over the wrap to adhere the wrap to the nail, & use a rubber cuticle pusher to seal the wrap around the edges, at the tip and base of the cuticle.
If there is any spot that didn't quite adhere properly just re-hit it with the hear for a few seconds and apply pressure! 

Step #5. Trim the wrap at the top using scissors & file using a downward motion

Step #6. Re - apply light heat and pressure giving special attention to the tip of the nail to insure it is secure!

Here is a few more pictures of the finished product (as silly as it might sound the tiny detial of the yellow daisys may just be my favourite part), I can not get over how BEAUTIFUL they are & how simple they were to put on (even on my incredibly ugly micro-sized misshaped toe nails)!! This is seriously a revolution in nail-care product, & there are so many beautiful and varying styles I can't wait to try out this Spring & Summer (& with all the time I will be saving no longer slaving over my finger tips can be spent at the beach, where we are meant to be this time of year)
Head on over to Stacey's website - www.stacysnailbar.jamberrynails.net to get yours!
It's always amazing when I get to meet &network with other entrepreneurs and women in business from around the world and always find I walk away feeling inspired! 
Thank you again Stacy you are way to awesome !!
I hope you all had and continue to have a fantastic weekend  & remember to always...  
Dream Big Sparkle More   Shine Bright
