Hot In The Hive: OPI Axxium Gels For Perfect Nails!
Posted in: Uncategorized  | There is nothing more feminine that a well-done manicure. The precise prettiness and the pampering makes it lovely to be a woman. With a fresh manicure, you can be wearing your weekend sweats and still feel polished and put-together. I prefer to give myself manicures purely for the reason that it’s cheaper for me to do it at home. I can’t stand chipped nails and as soon as my manicure gets a little ratty, I whisk off the offending color and put on a few new coats. The problem is, it is a fast-paced world and we are only becoming busier and busier. A busy schedule is a manicure’s worst nightmare as polish becomes dented or chipped easily and there’s no time to fix it. What is a girl to do?! Nail polish companies have long been pumping out products that promise long wear, chip-resistance, press-and-go, and peel-and-stick options. Some work better than others, but none work quite as well as OPI’s new Axxium Gel for nails. These little tubs of color are made from the same substance as the acrylic nails that many of us have been so used to. The difference is that these gels are thinner than their early counterparts and are pliable as regular polish, therefore look more natural and real. They also form a bond to the nail after being set with a UV light and can be painted over with regular polish if you want to change it up! They last up to 3 weeks chip free and require just a touch-up fill after that. They are easily removed by soaking the nails in an acetone-based solvent for 15 minutes and are a favorite for busy celebrities like Beyonce! So the next time you want to give your nails a little loving, ask about the OPI Axxium Gel polish. Sessions are on average $40 and up. Or get the kit and save yourself time and money at home! Price: $40+ for salon manicure, $108.95 for the Axxium Intro Kit |
