The Thrifty Closet

Well, hello there, December! The most festive month of the year is here! Hooray! Anyway, today my sister asked me to accompany her to a nearby nail salon, just walking distance from home. I gladly obliged and came with her since I feel my hands and feet need pampering as well.

The name of the nail salon is Must Luv Nails and I found out from my manicurist that they just opened 2 months ago. As any nail salons, they offer mani/pedi, waxing, spa, massage, among others. The things I love about this place (aside from being very close from home) is that it is clean and well-kept, has nice couches, accommodating staffs, and best of all affordable service. For just P250.00 I got a mani-pedi combo! My sister got the foot spa and pedi combo for only P400.00.

It’s the right shade for me because I’ll be presenting our thesis already this Saturday and I don’t want the attention on my hands. Simple and clean is what I want and this shade achieved that look. 

I also found out that Food Network’s Giada De Laurentiis’ choice of nail product is OPI’s Bubble Bath as well. I love love love her show and always wonder why her nails are amazing despite all those cooking! Now I know why! 

For my toenails, I chose to be adventurous and picked a red shade also from OPI. Among all the red shades available in the salon, only this stands out.
