This year, Nailaholics’ biggest annual event takes a stronger stand on environmental awareness.

Do you know that Water is the world’s biggest natural resource? Our oceans cover more than 70 percent of the Earth’s surface and with that much, it is unmistakable how vital these marine environments are to the planet, and how much there still is to be explored.

Our seas hold not only that matchless natural beauty that make life more scenic and interesting, it also holds life. Yes, in the seas lie abundant life – millions of species that live and thrive in the depths of our oceans. It is in this enormous body that we acquire nourishment and natural resources that help us produce so many things we use in our everyday lives. Furthermore, it provides us that significant ecological balance so that even living things at land can prosper. It gives us not only a source of living but a more balanced quality of life as it can also provide leisure and wellness. Needless to say, it is a resource we evidently cannot live without and for that reason must be protected by all means possible.
Though large and seemingly endless, the sea and its resources are finite.

Nailaholics, the country’s pioneer in bringing specialized nail salons and spa outlets, again conducts its annual National Pampering Day. The brand’s very own original creation is now on its 4th year, and this day of pampering is turned into an ecologically saving act tied up with self-care.

This October 17, 2019, from 10:00am to 1:00pm, all Nailaholics branches nationwide will be generously giving FREE SERVICES to its customers who would make a Php50 donation to its cause. Participants may avail of a FREE Manicure, Foot spa, or Foot massage with every donation, where all the proceeds will go to its partner beneficiary, Save Philippine Seas Organization.

As the world’s second largest archipelago, the Philippines has over 7,100 islands. Unsurprisingly, we Filipinos depend on the sea for livelihood, tourism, economy, and basically most of our lives. Thus, it is only essential for us to practice environmental conservation diligently – in many ways we can.

Indeed, employing kindness to oneself should translate into caring for our planet and vice versa. By choosing the right sustainable lifestyle changes, we can all empower each other to make a change. That is the advocacy Nailaholics wants to impart.

The advocasea does not end there. In aiming to create a holistic approach, Nailaholics will literally dive into action. A special raffle promo awaits the participants of the National Pampering Day wherein one lucky donor will win an all-expense paid trip to Siargao. Siargao Island is named the best island in the world and it practices respectable eco-tourism.

In this special promo, one lucky winner and a companion will not only appreciate the marine life and splendour of our own Philippine seas, but also be able to join a beach clean-up program led by S.E.A. Movement, and volunteer at the Siargao Art Recycling Studio. This is really the complete environmental awareness package that will immerse a willing participant.

Now it’s up to you, nailaholic! We all can take active part in this movement of caring for ourselves while caring for Mother Earth. We only have one planet, we only have one home. There is no planet B so love your own.

When you choose yourself, you choose right. Choose self-care that saves.
It’s time to make your wave, one sea at a time!

Pamper time with TITANIA products!!

Hey! Mommies are you all done with the entire task at your house? Are you done with the assignment of your kids or reviewing them for their exams? Well, It’s time for you to relax and have some pampering session with the help of TITANIA products that for sure you’ll enjoy. Just follow these easy steps:

 

First thing to do is to prepare the foot soak. You don’t need a fancy foot spa, a basin large enough to accommodate your feet and have them fully submerged is fine. Pour warm water into the bin. Use water as warm as your feet can stand. Add 1 tablespoon of Titania VITAL FOOT BATH SALT (for every 1 liter of warm water). Titania Vital Foot Bath Salt contains Dead Sea salts that invigorate and stimulates your tired feet. It also disinfects your feet. Regular use prevents foot odor and athlete’s feet. Soak your feet for a minimum of 10 minutes and an ideal of 20 minutes. Let the warm water work on your tired feet and soften your hardened skin.

After you soak your feet in warm water. It’s time to file your feet.

Remember: Never try to file/scrap your feet when dry, it may cause bleeding and may thin the skin to the point of sensitivity.

After the soak, touch the bottoms of your feet, singling out the rough areas that will need foot filing attention. You should be able to find the calluses, which are most commonly on the balls of your feet, sides of your feet and, of course, and the heels.

Lay a towel next to the basin, and place your feet on them, drying them gently. You can now start using the foot file to slough away dead skin and calluses. Work back and forth on the callused areas until there is no more callused skin to remove; the foot should be smooth.

                ***There are different types of foot files available – emery, pumice, metal rasp.

All of them are effective in removing dead skin cells and calluses. Each one has a coarse side   and a fine side. Use the coarse side (front) to remove hard corns and calluses. Then, use the fine side (back) to get a soft and gentle smooth finish. All Titania foot files can be dipped in warm water and disinfected for sanitization purposes. Available in Soft Touch line version.

Time to do the nail cleaning; to easily remove your unwanted cuticles, you can use Titania cuticle cutters. Use the soft rubber tip at the other end to push back and shape the cuticles. Then, gently slide the cuticle cutter around your cuticles to easily remove them with its flexible blade.

*Remember to soak your fingers in warm water first for 5-10 minutes to soften your cuticles before using the cuticle cutter. Available in Soft Touch line version.

For the perfect manicure and pedicure used the Titania chromium-plated quality nail cutters with its precision-ground cutting edges. When you’re using a nail cutter, you want to start from one side to another, just clip your way across until you get your desired length. Apply pressure on the lever, being careful that the head of the clippers remains in place. With Titania’s special plastic covering, you don’t have to worry about leaving messy nail clippings when you’re cutting your nails. Just remove the covering after to throw away the clippings. Available in Soft Touch version.

Nail files are used to smoothen any rough edges left by the nail cutter. Filing your nails can prevent them from cracking and breaking. File the nails straight up from the side and move it from one side to another. Make sure that you file your nails in a square shape to prevent ingrown. As you file your nails, the surface of the nail file may form a layer of build-up, causing it to be less effective. Wipe it off periodically to ensure that the surface of the nail file is as effective as possible.

***Wooden files, emery files and sapphire files are available. Titania sapphire files are made of flexible feathered steel. They stay straight throughout.

Now, to give your dull nails a glossy look without chemical treatments or expensive manicure &/or pedicures, a nail buffer can do the trick. A nail buffer helps remove the uneven ridges of the nail, giving it a smooth appearance. Aside from that, buffing is also believed to promote blood circulation & stimulate the growth of healthy nails.

So when you buff your nails, buff only in one direction, either forward or backward. Do not buff vigorously, as aggressive buffing will make your nail thin.

And now you’re done! As easy as 1-2-3 Thanks to TITANIA for making pampering easy like pro…

Here are other TITANIA products that will help you.

               

PUMICE SPONGE is also effective instruments for taking out dead skin cells and calluses. Titania pumice sponges are made of special polyurethane which makes it easier to clean and reuse than natural pumice stones. Unlike natural pumice stones whose holes close up when you’ve used them once, Titania pumice sponges disintegrate as you use them so they open up new holes every time. Mini pumice sponges are also available. Ideal for small callus areas on your feet or callused hands.

                               

CORN CUTTER is for those calluses that are too thick and difficult to scrub off with a foot file or a pumice sponge. Use a corn cutter to gently slice off the layers of calluses. Pull the cutter across the callus in one direction and in a gentle shaving motion. When the callus area is relatively thinner, alternate to a foot file or pumice sponge to scrub it off. Do not use a corn cutter if the callus isn’t too thick as you might cut your skin.

Always make sure that your cutters are sharp to prevent unwanted accidents. Refill blades are available. To replace the blade, push the middle of the cutter to disengage the blade tray from it. Available in Soft Touch version.
