The launch of Minx Nail fashion is a new and glamorous way for women to extend fashion to their very fingertips. Minx nails have become the latest must have fashion accessory for the celebs, being worn by names such as Victoria Beckham, Christina Aguillara, Rihanna and Beyonce to name but a few.
Minx is a solid film with an adhesive backing that is heat activated. The heat gives Minx the conformability to fit over the compound curve of a nail, and seals the film onto the bed. The patent-pending, proprietary material that Minx is made of can easily be removed with heat
HOW LONG DO THEY LAST? This depends on several factors; the most important being proper application. From our Minx users, it appears the normal range is from one to two weeks. But, during this time, Minx does not chip
Minx nails have become the latest must have fashion accessory that has taken the States by storm, with celebs such as Victoria Beckham, Christina Aguillara, Rihanna and Beyonce appearing in glossy fashion magazines showing off their new Minx nails.
“Minx is for those who love to stand out from the crowd,” declares Master Minx Janice Jordan. “For celebrities who wore Minx nails on the red carpet for the American Music Awards and the Music Rocks event, Minx opened up a whole new area of fashion. Once you’ve tried it, you can’t go back.”
With hundreds of designs to choose from, Gigi Rouse says, “There is no other way anyone could apply these designs to both natural and enhanced nails in such a quick time (15 minutes). With Minx, Nail art is beautifully and tastefully done and, most importantly, affordable!!”
makeupbuzz.net sums up an article on Minx as “Beyonce loves Minx!” in the photo she can be seen on the red carpet minxing up her designer dress by wearing matching gold Minx nails
Minx was origanally invented by Janice Jordan, Minx chief executive, after getting frustrated with her nails wearing down while working at her vehicle graphics business, Janice says: “I’m hard on my nails so I had to come up with something that would work better. “I’m not an engineer, but I have an engineer’s mind and I’m a problem solver.”
After six months of developing her Idea Janice partnered with Dawn, an expert in the salon industry. The two tested the product in the market and found 100% of the salons they approached were interested, tried Minx, and wanted more. Because of the uniqueness of the product, word soon spread to magazines wanting to do stories on Minx. Realizing the damage that can happen when a company cannot supply demand Janice and Dawn ended the test with the conclusion they needed to set up the manufacturing facilities and infrastructure to support sales.

Acknowledged as the world’s finest top coat Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat is now available at RMUK.
Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat formula allows it to penetrate through the nail lacquer to the base coat forming a single solid coating over the nail plate for a much more durable finish which is guaranteed not to yellow.
Seche Vite is unmatched as a top coat leaving the nail silky feeling, stronger, more durable, absolutely will not chip and creates the highest gloss of any product on the market today.
Apply thickly, get a nice bead on the end of the brush, then set softly down on the first nail painted and watch how Seche Vite flows over the wet nail polish self levels and will not drag or streak the underlying manicure.
It takes time to master the application and when perfected it is possible to apply in only three strokes.

Hands and feet need pampering too! Receive advice on strengthening and growing your nails.
ACRYLIC NAIL EXTENSIONS £ 40.00
Acrylic nails are applied to the natural nail to extend the appearance of your natural nail. We prepare the nail first by trimming back the natural nail if needed and tidying the cuticle. A plastic tip is then stuck to the free edge or the nail we then blends the tip into the natural nail so that the join is not visible then apply a layer of acrylic powder and liquid over the tip and natural nail, this is the strength of the artificial nail. We then file and blend the acrylic so that it’s nice and smooth and more natural looking. This process takes approximately 1 hour once the nails are complete you can either have them painted with a French white tip or a colour of your choose. We recommend you have the acrylic nails filled in
(Re balanced) every 2/3 weeks.
BIO SCULPTURE GEL 32.00
Bio sculpture gel makes nails beautiful, flexible and strong naturally. It is easy to apply and instantly dry’s.
After your nails are shaped, clear or colour gel is applied. Each coat is set under a ultra-violet lamp which leaves your nails strong yet flexible. The gel won’t damage your natural nails. The gels will last 2/3 weeks and then we recommend you to have them soaked off and a new set re applied, if having them on your toes they may last slightly longer maybe 3 /4 weeks because your feet are covered up and aren’t used as much as your hands are.
JESSICA MANICURE £18.00
This is a hand and nail treatment which lasts approximately 45 mins this treatment includes a hand and arm massage, cuticle soak, trim file and polish. It’s a very relaxing treatment and you will also have beautiful nails by the end of service. Just like skin and hair Jessica do a variety of treatment basecoats for all different nail types and conditions whether there damaged, dry, brittle or normal all nails can be treated.
PEDICURE £26.50
This is a manicure of the feet and takes approximately an hour. We file the toe nails and cut back the cuticle we then apply a foot scrub after that we massage the lower leg and foot to relax tired aching feet, then a chose of nail polish is applied to finish we also advice you bring open toe shoes as the polish takes a while to dry.
