Boyfriend Nails

VMA's

Hi guys! Maybe you've watched the MTV VMA's the other day? I've seen really freaky things, but if Lady Gaga can get away with wearing a meat dress, why not put your boyfriend on your nails? Well, that's what Katy Perry must have thought. Katy made her appearance to the event while wearing custom made Minx Nails that were made only a few days before the awards. Being a celebrity really opens some fantastic doors! LA-based manicurist Kimmie Kyees applied the Minx nails to Katy, so her fiancee Russel Brand would by her side after all!

Ha, I think these nails are really well done, funny, wouldn't take this too seriously. Of course they're ridiculous, but who doesn't love ridiculous! Love how she rocks the "My Little Pony"-do as well. Wouldn't it be awesome if you could design your own Minx nail design? I'd totally do it. Would you too wear your boyfriend on your nails or would you come up with something different?

Minx releases World Cup nail designs

I still haven't gotten around to getting some Minx nails done, but in the meantime I got some news!

Minx nails Releases World Cup Nails for Fans!

"The FIFA World Cup is well under way, and to help celebrate this exciting occasion Minx has created a fabulous and fan-worthy line of designs called the FANstastic World Cup Flags! There are a total of 13 great countries represented by their nation’s flag, allowing fans to extend their support and patriotism to their very fingertips."

These look kinda fun don't they? I've seen so much World Cup mani's pop up in only 2 weeks time, I love it. Normally I'm not really into soccer (or football if you must), but this whole World Cup brings so many people together, so fun!

I can imagine not everyone feels like spending hours on bustin' out a perfect flag, so these could come in handy.

The flags
USA	Argentina	Australia	Brazil	France
Germany	Italy	Mexico	South Africa	South Korea
Spain	Saint George	United Kingdom	Finland

Too bad Italy and France are already eliminated. Apparently Finland isn't even participating in the World Cup? And no Holland? Aw :-(

Who do you think is going to be the World Champion?

Get Minxed!

The other day I went to see Sex and the City II. I'm not a big fan of the show or the movies, but there's no way around this: Kim Cattrall's nails were HOT. Throughout the movie she is sporting around 8 different Minx designs, all done by Naomi Yasuda.

What are Minx nails exactly?

Minx is a solid film with an adhesive back that is heat activated. The heat gives Minx the conformability to fit over the compound curves of nails and seals it onto the nail bed. The patent pending proprietary material Minx is made of can be easily removed with heat by either the manicurist or the client.

There are many celebrities rocking this look at the moment, like Lady Gaga, Kate Perry and Beyonce. They sure know how to turn me into a jealous little vixen.

Seriously, I think they're amazing. Me and my dear friend Judith were already planning on getting some Minx nails done, but now I'm seeing them pop up everywhere they're stuck in my brain. I bet it's going to be pretty expensive, but I think every nailoholic should allow themselves to experience something like this once. Right?! I'll definitely show the outcome on here!

But, this is where it gets nerve-wrecking: what design to choose? There are so many cool ones! You can see an overview here. I'm totally drooling over the "Deep Blue with Silver Lightning Moons" design right now, but I can't make up my mind.

The latest

Minx also has come up with two designs to celebrate the World Cup this year, unfortunately they didn't design a Dutch flag, so uhmm I'll skip that one just to be safe.

If you had to pick one design, which one would it be?
