Glamour Session Bag from Roo Beauty

I have taken the leap and have purchased the Glamour Session Bag from Roo Beauty in Imperial Purple.  I chose purple as my logo is purple, and it's my favourite colour.  This bag also comes in Black, Pink and Teal.

This bag is fantastic, It can fit in my LED or UV lamp, daylight lamp and extension lead as well as all my application and removal tools, including extra nail art bits.  I can also fit a couple of towels in as well.  The front and back pockets have individual pockets for bottles, you can squeeze 2 shellac bottles in, and they also hold the OPI bottles, I am certain that Gelish would also fit.

I am so impressed with the bag and the amount of padding it has.  I would have no issue with carrying this around all day as I would feel confident that my equipment is safe.

My bag is currently packed for 3 clients and an event, and there is still space for more!!

The only criticism I have is that the elastic bits in the main part of the bag are slightly too high for my OPI bottles of remover and sanitiser, but fine for my CND ones, but this isn't too bothersome!  Just an observation!  

I would recommend this bag to any mobile nail tech, or any session tech.

Over the weekend I am doing the nails for a bridal party who have asked for both Shellac and OPI GelColor nails.  I will update with how this bag works out using both systems and lamps!

I also have the Roo Beauty Session belt, but I am now considering some of the polish bags as well.

When contemplating purchasing this bag I could not find any detailed pictures, so I hope that this helps you!!

What Roo Beauty products do you find most useful?

UPDATE!

I used my bad for a bridal party today, where I used both OPI GelColour and Shellac for 6 clients.  The bag held all my product and lamps as well as extra nail art products.  As I had so many clients and 2 services, I carried my towel separately, but if using one system this bag would give you plenty of room, I even had extra space!  Very impressed with this bag, and hope it wears well as I will be using it a lot!!

Halloween Inspired Nails using OPI GelColor Comet In The Sky

I managed to get my hands on the limited edition black and holo glitter Comet In The Sky from the OPI Holiday 2014 range. I thought it would look great over orange, so inadvertently ended up with Halloween nails!! 

For this look I used the NEON Juice Bar Hopping and Comet In The Sky.  A coat of alpine snow was applied under the NEON to ensure I really got a bright result.

I love the glitter, it has different size pieces and really sparkles under the light. 

Have a great halloween!!!

Nail Art Ideas

These last few weeks have been crazy busy which I love, in-between various events I have managed to pull together these nail art ideas which have been inspired by much of what I have seen at events, other techs and social media!


Hope that they inspire you guys!!
