5 Ways to use Lip Liner

December 16, 2019 | Articles, How to ... & Tutorials | Leave a Comment

Lip liners define the lips and help prevent lipstick from “bleeding” into cracks and fine lines, while helping your lipstick last longer. Lip liners can be used to outline the lips before applying lipstick.  Alternatively, you can create a “stain” under your lipstick or lip gloss by lining your lips and then coloring the lips…

Has your make-up expired?

August 18, 2019 | Articles | Leave a Comment

Many women are guilty of using expired make-up and cosmetic products on their…

Sugar is something we all try to reduce in our diets, but when it comes to our skin using a sugar rub (scrub) in your skincare routine is something you cannot deny. Priding itself as a two-in-one beauty ritual, raw sugar crystals gently buff away dull skin cells and unclog pores while virgin coconut oil nourishes, hydrates, and protects your skin resulting in a gorgeous island skin glow.

Size:  240ml tub (with scoop)
Available in Bamboo Lychee, Coconut, Frangipani or Hibiscus scents.

Six ways to become your nail tech's favourite clie Six ways to become your nail tech's favourite client:
1. Book in advance - Timely allows you to book up to three months in advance at Rambling Rose Nails.
2. If you want art, have a (vague) idea of what you want. It gives me a starting point.
3. Arrive on time. If you're running late or stuck in traffic, please let me know.
4. Keep your hands on the table. Gel polish is sticky, even after it's cured - I need this sticky layer for the next layer of polish - getting lint, fluff or hair in it means your polish won't look great.
5. Relax your hands. It's impossible to get perfect polish application on fingers I can't move.
6. Follow aftercare advice. Cuticle oil prolongs your manicure. Picking off your polish will damage and thin your natural nails.

If you're getting a pedicure, you're welcome to have a power nap as long as you've chosen the polish colour you'd like.
