Back in September, I was invited to a bloggers event at Zen Lifestyle's new salon in Edinburgh's Hanover Street. I am only getting round to telling you all about it now, bad blogger!
The evening was lovely, we got to see the new salon, which is amazingly swish, and got a to choose a few treatments. We could choose from Shellac nails, HD brows, Blink & Go lashes, and Dr Murad skin mapping. As I had a wedding coming up that week, I went for Shellac and lashes.
The Shellac process was very straightforward and quick. My nails were shaped, and then a base coat applied which was cured under the UV light, then 2 coats of colour, then a top coat, with curing between each coat. It probably took less than 20 minutes altogether. The result was amazing, completely dry, shiny nails, that last for up to 2 weeks.
Sorry for the rubbish phone photo, but this shows the nails 1 week on. There is some nail growth showing, but other than that they still look perfect. I removed the Shellac just before the 2 week mark, following instructions I found on youtube, as it was a bit far for me to go back to Zen to have them removed.
It was then over to the lash and brow area, to have blink and go lashes applied. (No, thats not me, its Amanda and Rani)

Again, application was quick and easy. The tape is there to stop my lower lashes getting in the way. It felt a bit strange, but that's all.
The event was great overall, thanks Zen! There were amazing nibbles and fizz, nom nom!
Those coronation chicken wraps were so tasty, took all my willpower to not eat the whole plate!
If you fancy checking out Zen lifestyle, I saw on their website that they have Christmas shopping evenings coming up, so have a look- Zen lifestyle.
Oh I'm so jealous!!!! xxx
