Meeting our Nail Idol - do please read!

Last Weekend

We at Upmarket Nails are qualified to give you advice on two subjects. Subject one is your nails, we know loads about that. Make an appointment and come and see us. Subject number two is ‘what not to do when you meet your nail product idol’. Someone in the same business as yourself that you admire and and to whom you are grateful for there product and their policies regarding training. You do not need to come and see us for that advice, just read on.

We advise you to have your hair done, put your best make up on and buy a new outfit. Try and meet your nail idol on the first day of the conference that you are attending  when you look and feel your best. This will ensure that you look great in the photo that you have taken with her for your publicity and that she will look upon you as a fellow professional with whom you can enjoy a mutual respect.

We advise you not to wait until day two as what will happen will be, in our experience, the following:-

• You will go and visit a friend and consume too many cocktails and too much wine including a snack of brie in Calvados returning late back to where you are staying ‘in a right state’.  
• Do not be ill and sleep in your clothes on the sofa because you can’t find your pyjamas!!!???  
• Definitely don’t  get up the next morning feeling like death, discover that there is no hot water for your shower and a cat’s lick will have to do even though it is February and freezing. 
• Do not discover that your new top that you had saved for the occasion is a size 8 on a size 16 hanger and you have nothing else to wear as you have slept in your clothes.
• Should you scrounge a t shirt that also does not fit but at least it’s not a size 8  keep you cardy closed to hide it.  
• Do not stop in the car on your way to the tube and be sick. 
• Do not also put yourself in a position where you have to be ill in a plastic bag on the tube (thoughtfully supplied by your business partner who also looks rough but remembered to drink water before bed ensuring lack of illness). 
• Do not when you actually meet your Nail idol allow your business partner to suggest a photo otherwise you will look like this.  

As you can see Elmien Scholtz looks like the fabulous woman we know her to be. 

Developing Bio Sculpture in 1988 it was the only product of it’s kind for many years and is still the leading international brand of soak off gels. I (Avril) have used it since 1999 and it made my business in London very successful. The same is now happening with Upmarket Nails opened by myself and Rose in 2012. 

We will never drink again! Unless of course Mrs Scholtz would like to join us.
