NAIL POLISH TIPS FOR THE PERFECT APPLICATION

Don’t paint your bright colours in direct sunlight
Dehydrate your nails with an alcohol based product - wipe perfume or tequila (kerrys fav) over the nail bed
Push the cuticles back with Glitter Gal’s Pina Colada cuticle oil, yum, yum
Using a base coat avoids nail staining
Allow a couple minutes drying time between the coats
Don't press too hard down on the brush when applying polish, this leaves streaks
Apply diamond finish top coat to protect the polish and creates extra brightness and shine!
Match your bright nail polish colour with your favourite handbag!
Use our holographic for dynamic colour effects

SMOKY EYES MAKEUP TIP
null

To achieve this intense eye lid colour:
- Use your Glitter Gal blue eye pencil and colour-in the entire lid.
- Apply our charcoal blue eyeshadow, on top of the pencil colour, this seals the intensity (wax pencil with a dry eyeshadow stops smudging).
- Blend, blend, blend eye shadow in upward motion to create smoldering sexy eyes. This simple, but effective technique will create long lasting, smudge proof eye makeup!

COMPETITION
Submit your makeup question to Kerry, the best makeup question of the month will receive Glitter Gal eye makeup palette and blue pencil! Competition drawn 15 July and announced in our July news letter!

WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR EACH MONTH
As Kerry's (partner of Glitter Gal) background is makeup artistry we are going to give you monthly makeup tips.

HOT MAKEUP TIP FOR MARCH

What do to when you accidentally drop yor favourite Glitter Gal eye shadow and it has chips or cracks.
The secret to “fix” the broken eye shadow is to spray pure alcohol (not Vodka or Gin - ha ha ha !!!) over the top, it then regroups and sticks together again - this is amazing! However, if you smash it to “smithereens”, there is “no hope”.

Contact Kerry, our award winning makeup Goddess (go to our contacts page on our blog) to ask any makeup questions.

We have slightly modified our Blog page and as you can see it still a work in Progress.
We originally posted an interesting article on Formaldehyde in Nail polish and some interesting facts and comments were revealed.
We think it is important to keep everyone informed so with that in mind we are reposting this article.

We found this article really interesting and thought you might like to read it too. It sets out to explain some of the truths and the myths behind formaldahyde in nail polish. It was published in the February edition of the "Professional Beauty".

If you are interested in this please have a read and comment if you want to. We are interested to hear what you have to say.

BTW ..... We use only the purest and safest methods of making our Nail Polishes and only use chemicals that are approved for use by the industry. Our advice is that if anyone has any reaction such as itching, redness or swelling from any beauty product, whether it's ours or somone elses, the safest thing to do is to stop using the product and allow time for the symptoms to settle down or disappear altogether.
