The perfect present for any spa-loving female--and especially appearance-conscious teens--Style on Hand presents sumptuous photographs that illustrate proper manicure, pedicure, and nail-care techniques, including tips for reflexology massage and nutritional advice for the healthiest nails. Elisa Ferri, manicurist to the superstars, and Lisa Kenny, a professional hand model, reveal their tricks of the trade, including money-saving ones (such as that most nail polish formulations are identical, and less expensive brands may be of better quality than their chi-chi, richly packaged counterparts). Homemade beauty masks for the hands and feet, guidelines for manicures for men, and hints for professional-looking nail extensions ensure that this book will make a much-used reference.
Book Description
A good manicure, like the right haircut or healthy skin, is a basic part of looking and feeling great. Whether nails are long and polished with a knockout color or simply shaped and buffed, anyone with well-cared-for hands looks finished and feels more confident. Yet not everyone has the time or the budget to maintain this look.
Style on Hand puts even the most sophisticated salon techniques within the reach of the home manicurist, with dozens of professional tips for achieving a flawless manicure. Its expert authors not only share simple solutions to hand and nail care, but also demonstrate creative ways to make hands and nails a statement of one's personal style.
With chapters covering nail nourishment, massage therapy, remedies for nail problems, choosing colors and creations for everyday and occasions, accessorizing--and , of course, step-by-step directions to a do-it-yourself, salon-perfect manicure--Style on Hand is an essential addition to the beauty regimen and personal library of any woman on the go.
