Sparkling Lids for the Holidays.

We absoltuley love this product, not only is it cheap ($1.99) but its beautiful. 

This is the smallest grade of glitter we have found so far. This is perfect for those who like glitter but want to keep it classy and not overwhelming. You can add this to the inner corners of the eye or to the brow bone for a hint of sparkle.

Navarro carries this brand and many other drug stores. 

Where to get Shellac / Gel Manicute

For people like us that like to change nail color every two days, this is definitely not for us. Shellac or Gel nail polish is for those that really do not have the time to get a frequent manicure and wish to have perfect nails for a very long time, 2 weeks to be exact. 

These polishes are a process and they need to be done at a salon with a professional.

Here are the top 5 places to get Shellac / Gel polish.

1. Marisol`s H2O: 1400 Salzedo St. Ste 105. Coral Gables. (786)326-5284

2. Mimi's Touch Salon: 123 Madeira Ave. Ste 100, Coral Gables  (305) 442-4533

3. Brickell Nail Spot: 630 S Miami Ave Miami.  (305) 373-5544

4. 7 Salon: 1821 Purdy Ave.  Miami Beach.    (305) 674-7777

5. Nails by Kelly: 7800 SW 57th Ave. ZenMe Spa Ste 109. South Miami   (305) 283-5649

Complete Bridal Makeover Giveaway.

The perfect gift

These are a few perfect little gifts for Santa`s list this year. what are some of your recommendations?

1. NAKED by Urban Decay

2. O.P.I "Bold" & "Temptation"

3. Dolce & Gabbana "The One"

4. MAC Lipstick any color

5. VS Pj`s are a must. They are giving free slippers with purchase.

6. Godiva Chocolate. plenty to choose from.

7. "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett, Great read.

8. St. Ives Apricot Face Scrub. This is a must have.

Newspaper Gift Wrap.

Besides the recycling aspect, this looks mighty elegant. Make sure to find pieces that have no color printing on them.  Usually newspapers are not long  nor wide enough to cover a present, therefore you will need a few sheets. use clear tape and a big bow to decorate. the bigger the bow the prettier and a black bow looks extra nice, even better if it has sparkle.

Holiday nail stickers

You can find these nail stickers in all drugstores. Sally "Salon Effects" has a wonderful holiday selection as you can see on the picture above. For a longer lasting sticker add a top coat.

Hair for the Holidays.

This look is very simple. This is a romantic look which like any other romantic style, requires curling of the hair. for the bump use some hair spray, wait till it drys and then tease/ back comb.

Seasons Greetings

Happy Holidays! from QuickFix.
