Hey Gals, 

Just wanted to let you know that there is an AWESOME deal being offered by ASK Cosmetics Inc., a Canadian company specializing in innovative, safe and effective nail, skin and hair care products.  I know some of you have tried TIPS Nail Conditioner with great success.  And some more of you have even filed with the Contour Nail File having zero grit strength.  A few nail bloggers have used it and were amazed at how it helped get rid of their "peelies".  It's specifically designed to seal the ends in order to promote longer, stronger growth.  Guaranteed - you've never tried anything like it before!



Well, good news because the set including 1 bottle of TIPS Nail Conditioner (5 ml) PLUS the Contour Nail File is still on sale for $15.99 + FREE SHIPPING internationally.  Now's the time to stock up for yourself, treat a BFF, get some Xmas gifts for friends and family or buy some "just because" gifts you might like to give on special occasions.  Just so you know how much you're really saving....... the normal cost of this set and shipping would be approx $40.00 (not including applicable taxes).


If you've been on the fence about trying TIPS Nail Conditioner, now would be a good time to give it a shot at this incredible price.

TIPS Nail Conditioner is a one-step, one product treatment for both nails and cuticles.  In just 2 - 3 minutes every morning you'll nourish your nails with lipids, moisturize them, fortify them and every TIPS application will help protect your nails from the damage water and harsh cleaning chemicals do to our nails during our everyday life.  Brittle, peeling, chipping, cracking, weak nails will be a thing of the past!

Peach & Cream by Essence


Brand new - Essence Nude Glam Series with Peach & Cream featured here today.
 
This shade is very attractive and innocent looking.  I can imagine it as polish shade for weddings perhaps.  However, as you can see for the few photos I post here, it's not a shade that is flattering for my skin tone. 

Credit goes to TIPS Nail Conditioner for the great nails I have.  Thanks to daily applications my nails are strong enough and yet flexible enough to withstand gardening, cleaning and all the sports I do.

TIPS Nail Conditioner can be worn with manicures as well.  Simply apply it around the skin surrounding your nails and generously on the cuticles.

I made a beginners mistake when applying this polish.  The first coat I applied was far too thick.  This resulted in a rather uneven first and second coat.  Things just didn't get any better during the second application, even though my toes were crossed.  Therefore, I'll only leave you with a few shots of this elegant shade and hope for better results next time round.
 
Always make sure your hands are moisturized.  Nothing looks worse than a well-groomed, manicured hand and dry cracked cuticles and/or parched hand skin.  I would highly recommend using a hand lotion that does not contain any waxes or silicones.  Why?  Well, these waxes and silicones found in many hand and body creams/lotions will:
  • strip your hands of their moisture leaving them dry, cracked and possibly irritated;
  • leave a "silicone glove" on your hands which builds up over time.  This so-called silicone glove will not allow the penetration of any nail care products you may be using.
Why would anyone use a lotion with waxes and silicones in it to begin with?  They are not natural to our bodies; they are not found in our bodies.  These ingredients are simply "fillers" for many personal care items such as:  hair conditioners, hand creams, body lotions, facial creams, etc.  You get the picture.  So be an aware consumer - anything ending with "cone" belongs in the silicone family.
 

 
So, keep your hands in tip-top shape at all times. 
 
Thanks for reading this today.  I really enjoyed writing for you and please don't be shy to leave a comment.
 
Have you ever considered what ingredients are actually in your skin lotions?

Gorgeous Bling Bling by Essence

My fascination with Essence continues.  Out shopping I saw a new display with several summer shades.  This one in particular caught my eye and made its way into my shopping cart.
 

Gorgeous Bling Bling has very tiny speckles of bronze and gold throughout.  As you can see for the photos below this glitter effect goes on very evenly unlike some others where you have to fish for the glitters particles, and then they are all over the place and very difficult to apply evenly.  If you look closely, even the lid displays the shade and glitter very accurately.

A truly gorgeous shade - not red, not brown, definitely not orange, but a pleasant mixture of all three tones. 

It applied like a dream.  I find the Essence polishes wear fairly well - 5 - 7 days if you refresh the top coat every other day to ensure longer wear.  But who actually keeps a shade on their nails that long?

Many of you know from other posts that I always finish up my manicure with a healthy cuticle treatment of TIPS Nail Conditioner.  This product keeps my nails in great shape.  It is so simple to apply:  1 product, 1 daily application first thing in the morning, 1 step is all it takes to replenish essential lipids, protect your nails from water/chemical damage, moisturize your nails and cuticles, strengthen and fortify.

It certainly lives up to its name - Gorgeous Bling Bling.  I for one, hope that Essence brings out more of such awesome shades with a hint of sparkle in them.
 
So, thanks a million for stopping by and viewing my latest manicure.  I wish you all the best for the rest of the day.
 
And be sure to let me know - what YOU think of this shade?  Is it calling your name?
 
Take care, Lisa M

Linda's Nail Transformation using TIPS Nail Conditioner

Bare Naked Nail Challenge sponsored by ASK Cosmetics Inc.



Week 0 - Photo taken Jan. 8th, 2012.

By the picture you can see that my nails are in rough shape. I recently trimmed them as I had a couple break back at work. I would like to be able to grow them longer but have them strong enough to endure the kind of work I have to do in retail. By getting on a regular routine/schedule with T.I.P.S. Nail Conditioner I know this is possible. Looking forward to the challenge. Thanks for the opportunity.
 

Week 1 - Photo taken Feb. 10th, 2012.
 
I can start to see the progress especially around the cuticle area.  They feel moisturized and my hangnails are becoming fewer.  My nails seem to withstand the wear and tear they get at my job.  Will keep you posted.
 

Week 2 - Photo taken Feb. 17th, 2012.
 
A picture is worth a thousand words, as the saying goes.  My nails are growing well and they feel great.  I continue to notice the soft, hydrated cuticles I have now thanks to TIPS Nail Conditioner.
 

Week 3 - Photo taken Feb. 27th, 2012.
 
 
Week 4 - Photo taken March 6th, 2012.
 

Week 5 - Photo taken March 13th, 2012.
 
 
 
Week 6 - Photos taken March 28th, 2012.
 
Here is an update on my nails.
I am really liking the fact that my nails seem to grow faster. They are unbelievably whiter and stronger. The tops of my nails are so smooth which I think is a good indication of the TIPS product (use of the Revival Skin Milk included) making them not so dry and so nice to apply polish on them. Having said this I do have to trim my nails more often but love using the file. Hope this encourages my “TIPS Family” to keep using this amazing product.
 

 
Week 7 - Photos taken April 3rd, 2012.
 
Here is my weekly updated picture.
As you can see my nails are very white & have grown very fast from my last picture taken just 1 week ago.  I am extremely pleased with your product and I know that it works. Consistency and patience really pays off.,,I am going to trim my nails as I find them too long for my liking so my next picture will look different as far as length goes, but I am confident my cuticles will remain the same.  Thank you for letting me share my progress.


Week 8 - Photo taken April 19th, 2012.
 
I have been faithfully using ASK Cosmetics products - TIPS Nail Conditioner on my finger nails since Feb. 10th, 2012.  I have found the product to be extremely successful on my cuticles & nails. My cuticles are in great shape. The surface of my nails is soft, yet the nails are strong & whiter. I found my nails growing faster also as I have had to trim them more often to a length I was comfortable with.  I plan to continue using this product.
Thank you for the opportunity for me to do so.

How to apply T.I.P.S. Nail Conditioner

TIPS Nail Conditioner has helped millions of fingernails become strong, yet flexible with a vibrant, healthy colour. 
 
 
 But, in order to achieve the maximum results TIPS has to be applied according to the instructions, which are by no means difficult. 
 
 
 
How do I apply T.I.P.S.™ Nail Conditioner?

Apply T.I.P.S. daily to your cuticles, the entire top surface of your nails, the underside of your nails and the skin around your nails.  It is important to treat the area around the root of your nail, which is located just before your first knuckle.  For optimal results apply the T.I.P.S. treatment when your nails are driest, which for most of us is first thing in the morning.  Be sure to apply T.I.P.S. before exposing your hands to water, as it is designed to treat and protect your nails and cuticles from the damage caused by water and other harsh substances throughout the entire day.  If you wear nail polish or acrylics, simply apply T.I.P.S. to the cuticle area, the skin around the nail and underneath your nails.
 
Just remember: shake the bottle prior to every application, apply generously even the areas surrounding the nail itself, then gently rub your hands together as you would apply a hand lotion. There is no need to wait since completely dry nails will absorb TIPS Nail Conditioner immediately. So, it is a one-step daily manicure treatment for your nails and cuticles that only takes 2 - 3 minutes to complete. Your nails will thank you for it, believe me! Mine have.
ASK Cosmetics Inc. has an incredible promotion at the moment.  Contact me at lmueller@askcosmetics.com for more information.
Have a great day, Lisa M.

What is T.I.P.S.™ exactly?

Nail Conditioner is a treatment for your nails and cuticles designed to replenish the lipids, which our everyday life has stripped them of.  As the name implies T.I.P.S. protects our nails and cuticles from the damage we expose them to on a daily basis, namely: water, chemical products, harsh cleaning products, waxes as well as silicones found in numerous body care products, etc.
