Pamper Much? The Ultimate SPA Experience with Celebrity Nails


If anyone were to ask me what I enjoy the most during my down time, I would have to say it would be the few times I could let loose and give in to life's guilt-free pleasures and indulgences: pampering myself. I love getting massages and spa treatments which is why being the expert I am, I was quite familiar with Celebrity Nails Manila, which is the BEST home spa and nail service in the Metro. Trust me...when I say that... as I have gone through the whole block of new at home beauty services, I come to see myself always coming back to Celebrity Nails and in the past 2 years, trusted them with my nails spa treatments and massages.



The reason for this would have to be the professionalism, the education they instill on both therapists and consumers and hygienic practices of the company which is their golden rule. These people take nails seriously and to a whole new level, which I totally appreciate and applaud. Being the ONLY nail spa/ salon to have a CELEBRITY NAILS ACADEMY, where ALL therapists must undergo extreme training before being certified to be sent out to represent the company and do nails. In the presence of many home service nail spas, that definitely gives Celebrity Nails an edge, which also gives me, the consumer, a sense of trust and peace of mind when entrusting my nails to someone.








I've heard about the scary stories and the unconfirmed yet equally disturbing urban legends about having one's nails done and ending up with a disease or infection after. Celebrity Nails addresses this issue and probable source of anxiety (neurotic people like me have) when having one's nails done, by ensuring you all tools, even the pumice stone used to exfoliate your feet during the foot spa ritual is properly disinfected and sealed for use. All tools, from the nail file, the nipper and even the cotton swabs are prepacked in a sealed container, ensuring that they have been disinfected and are safe for use. This degree of safety they give the consumer is seriously something I appreciate and herald the company on. More so, all their spa concoctions like the exfoliating scrub, lotions, salts etc., are mixed in house, strictly for Celebrity Nail use and contain no preservatives or any harmful chemicals that are present in most mass marketed beauty fixes. Some clients, enjoy the concoctions so much they request to purchase the items for themselves! Aside from all these, all nail polish brands used by Celebrity Nails include the best brands including Orly, OPI, Lancome, Chanel and Dior, with a wide array of colors to choose from to cater to every stylista and beauty enthusiast's whim.





There are many more reasons why I love Celebrity Nails and it would probably take me forever to list all my rave reviews for this one of a kind professional home service nail and body spa. But I can only say that the best way to validate them is to try the service out for yourself. Be it by yourself or with all your girlfriends (check out their rates on SPARTIES which include fondue, chips and wine), this nail spa is definitely a must try for all it-girls in the making.


Spoil yourself, you deserve it, and do it with Celebrity Nails... you won't regret it!

Before the worst...









With not much to lose but so much to gain

Leather jacket: Topshop | Tank: Topshop | Maxi skirt: Glitterati | Purse: Deuville Bag from Louis Vuitton | Shoes: Soule Phenomenon | Accessories: Glimmer


I was very much covered on a rainy Tuesday...I figured, the spontaneous rain showers and thunderstorms provided the perfect backdrop to premiere my brown leather jacket from Topshop which I finally finally got to wear. I was perpetually on the hunt for the perfect brown leather jacket. I found one which was great 2 months ago but it had a hood and I'm not that much into hoodies- I love the whole biker vibe so I'm happy I practiced patience, not impulse shopping, and waited for this one to come along. And it did! Good things come to those who hustle. I wore it as contrast to an all black outfit: my basic staple, a black tanktop and a semi-sheer chiffon skirt from my brand Glitterati's upcoming collection... I decided to wear the black version as it is a staple but this skirt also comes in a wide array of colors- yellow, purple, white and pink! Stay tuned for that as I am very excited to launch our Back to School collection. I paired it with layered bib necklaces, both from Glimmer by Glitterati which were a combination of a mirror bib and a wooden, studded beaded bib. Kept everything as simple as possible---but paired it with my Only the Marvelous Soule Phenomenon wedged boots which perfectly complimented the look. It was a bit darker than my usual summer staples... but I love it how well brown and black worked well together unexpectedly in this look.

All That Glitters is.... GOLD!







Check out our model working the dress in our lookbook video for our new collection, Interstellar Overdrive...

Gold is always one color that makes me feel ultra-glamorous. Aside from being the "IT" color for fall (note: Gold was dubbed as the new "black"), the hue King Midas loved is a great choice on nights you just want to shine. For a glam Saturday night out, I figured, the best thing to do was to go for the gold... literally.






I wore this gold dress for Attica's VIP launch and 2nd Anniversary Party where they unveiled a bigger and better bar/club that will definitely be every nocturnelle's weekend destination. I am seriously a major bore recently and have been off the social grapevine for quite some time. My bff knew me quite well to have an inkling I was planning to ditch the night... yet again...which is why she called me the day before and ordered me to go... So I did... And it was a great way to unwind, somehow. The place was totally jam-packed and it was good to see a few familiar faces and catch up with friends. By 2 am though, I was feeling quite nostalgic for some good old Saturday R&R..So I pulled a french exit and vanished into the sea of people. *Just like that*


My People: Teej, Nina and Lissa


We miss you, Patrish!



BFF's RULE!

Me, Meryll (Mega's Deputy Editor and Yoga Buff), Nina and Jill

The upside was that I had a change of scenery which is good every once in a while. More so, the gold hue definitely set a gold standard as my friends treated me like ROYALTY. My BFF, Nina
got me cutesy stockings from Topshop out of the blue... And one of my closest girl friends slash fellow fashionista, LISSA
surprised me and got me a pair of Forever21 black platform Maryjanes inspired by Miu Miu's Spring 2010 baby doll shoes. It was just one of the best surprise gifts ever...It was better than what I actually saw since it had a whimsical polka dot print which was just so pretty. I have been whining about those shoes since forever and was so severely disappointed when Forever21 would not sell me the pair on the mannequin when I went...The depression of not having them and wanting that pair so bad put me in a desperate situation where I actually ordered the Miu Miu ones off from Ebay.. (well, there goes my garage sale earnings!) I am getting it in 2-3 weeks (bummer!) but this lovely surprise just fast forwarded me to SHOE HEAVEN/ finding my SOLE MATE BLISS...and I actually finally get to wear them sooner than expected.

The shoes Lissa gave me.... SO PRETTY, I DIE!

PS: Lissa, if you're reading this, you're the best! I love you for this surprise, babe!
Click on to see my rather drastic transformation from total NERD to GLAMAZON. I think I can put Ugly Betty's makeover to shame! Haha!





Look was inspired by: 2010's GOLD DRESSES from BALMAIN...
