  1. I've been making lotion bars & butters for aprox 3 months and it is amazing what they have done for my nails....can't keep them trimmed enough!!! Don't know if it is the oils, the massaging of the oils into the cuticles or a combo but it is definately working.

    If I could just get that thru my clients head. If you use the oil, it will heal. Acrylic nails are porous and beneficial oils like jojoba and sweet almond penetrate down to the nail bed keeping your nails healthy, thus the acrylic will adhere better to a healthy nail. (I just know everyone wanted a lesson on nails, didnt you)*getdown* I know the jojoba oil can actually be absorbed into the skin because of its malicular(sp?) structure. A lot of oils like mineral just sit on the skin and really dont do anything. The pro brand I use at my shop is awesome, but I would love to be able to say I made my own. Hopefully soon I can figure out which to mix with what.
  2. I didn't mean that as a criticism. Sorry you took it that way

    Sorry, I didnt mean to sound like I was ripping you:embarasse Did'nt mean too. But it really is kind of a cool concept if you can keep it away from the stupid people.

    I would not worry about a lawsuit with it, just like everything you do, you can get sued for it. I know people that live for it sadly.

  3. Actually we have these in our salon but a different brand. The wax or whatever it is , is NOT hot at all. It wont burn you, just blow out the flame of course and use the little scoop to put the wax in your hands. Its totally safe as long as a responsible person doenst run their fingers thru the flame like an idiot. They smell fantastic too. Its makes your hands incredibly soft. Our message therapist uses them sometimes for message. You have to experience them before you can criticize them.

  4. Does anyone have a great cuticle oil recipe? I think my nail clients would just love this. I know the name brand cuticle oil I use at the salon contains jojoba oil, sweet almond oil, rice bran oil, tocopherl acetate(??) I wouldnt even begin to know what meaurments I would use. I just think it would be fun to have other scents beside good old almond scent.

  5. I want to make this sinus scent close to fall. It smells just like Vicks. I am going blank on somthing to make this unique:undecided . Color, name, additives, especially any clipart to make a cigar band for it. Any ideas?? By the way I got the sampler from NG. They smell great

  6. That is the website I am getting flaky clipart from. I am looking for things related to scents, floral, ect. But most from microsoft clipart are kind of :tongue2: . For instance "Love Spell", you would have something with a heart right, not too difficult, But those are really generic. Anyhoo, just wondering if there were any better websites.

  7. I am finding nothing but flaky clipart. I am trying to make some labels to put on my new white oval boxes I got today (Thanks again Malinda). Since I am on a very small scale of selling these soaps, I dont want to go through too much trouble making these labels, but good clipart can really make or break a label. Well atleast mine.

  8. I just got some new soap molds(for MP). I have seen some awesome looking soaps with them on the web, but how do you get multi colors in them. For instance, a sunflower mold with the brown and yellow. I can barely get one color in ok, let alone two.
