Finding the time to book in manis and pedis is always a challenge, so thankfully I've come across some helpful hints that might ease the burden.
If you're lurking around Oxford Street on a shopping spree, head to Debenhams and try out the new Gelish service from Filthy Gorgeous. An award-winning hybrid of gel and polish, Gelish is painted on to the nails before being set under a UV light, delivering long-lasting colour and shine. Chip and Smudge-free, it won’t damage nails, is loaded with keratin to help promote healthy growth and lasts up to 21 days. Available in 13 shades including classic French, I chose a gorgeous shade of coral - the perfect shade for my holidays. £55 for manicure or pedicure or £90 for both. Visit www.filthygorgeouslondon.com for more information.
If you would rather relax and unwind with some at-home pampering, Unlisted London is one of the ciy's best-kept secrets - the ultimate home spa service. With an A-team of nail technicians, make-up artists, stylists, beauty and skin care specialists, massage and fitness experts, therapists can arrive at your door (within Zone 1) from 9am to 9pm, 7 days a week. After a stressful day in the office I arrived home to the lovely Eva, who proceeded to pamper my tootsies like never before. The gorgeously relaxing experience left my feet soft and shiny, with perfectly painted nails (better than I can ever do myself...) that still look fabulous two weeks later. Having a treatment in my own home was great, and knowing you can schedule it in for a time that suits you to a T is priceless. I was even left with a heavenly-scented candle which I have definitely been putting to good use! Pedicure £50, visit www.unlistedlondon.com for more information.
