Let Me Pamper You, Let Me Make You Smile, First We'll Do Some Jamberry Wraps and We'll Have A Real Good Time!




Calling all ladies,

your day of pampering awaits!

No matter if you have small little nails that look more like nubs or long nails, Jamberry Nail Wraps are definitely for YOU!

Whether you're are a single gal on the go, a mom, grandma, or you're a dad looking for something for that special little girl, Jamberry Nail Wraps are THE best things since sliced bread when it comes to pampering.

We all deserve some pampering, don't we? How many times have we seen those ads for nail spa's and thought, "I would really love that, but the cost is just too much." or "I just don't have the time in my busy schedule to sit down and wait for my appointment?"

What I am offering is not a gimmick or something you'd see on television. I'm not that kind of sales lady. I'm a mom on a shoe string budget that doesn't have a lot of time to go and sit at a salon or nail spa. Besides that, I never was one that could wear artificial nails no matter how beautifully they were done.

Jamberry Nail Wraps is not only affordable but they take less than twenty minutes to put on and they look beautiful, fun, and fashion forward with over 300 designs to mix and match.


Tired of sales pitches? I am too. I am not fond of the "Buy this, it's the latest craze!" spiel. Again, I am a mom and I am on a budget. How many times have any of you out there have passed up something for yourself because your beloved family, the bills, or something has to come first? I know I do. Putting myself on the list usually means I occupy next to the bottom with things I have to do for my children, my husband, and our home. I am also very active with different social activities as well and having to squeeze in pampering or something just for me-well, turning lead to gold would be easier or pulling teeth without the Novocain.

Jamberry, unlike many other nail wraps, are made in the USA. Most of the nail products from companies we all know from the drug stores and like places, are sold here but made in another country. Jamberry Nail Wraps and products are made and sold HERE! They are based in the US. We are living in a age where we need to invest our hard earned money in products, services, and businesses here in our own country FIRST. When we opened our borders so many years ago, many of our ancestors came here in search of The American Dream. Jamberry Nails is a very good example of living the American Dream with their company that was started by three women who lived ordinary busy lives just like most of us do. They had children, families, and jobs. They had an idea and grew on that until they came up with a product they knew would be for ANYONE. They also knew it had to be the best quality as well as affordable. So in the mass market of direct sales products-Jamberry is literally taking the lead.


Look, I know the value of every penny spent. I know that when it comes to things I purchase for myself, it's like an investment since I do have a family I have to make sure has food to eat, clothes on their backs, and a home to manage. I am barely in the middle most days and for me to sit here and tell you that Jamberry Nails is a great product, is only possible because it simply is a great and affordable product to get your hands on.

Jamberry Nail wraps make me feel pretty when I put them on. I feel excited to open up the packets and pull out a sheet and start applying them. I can choose to go with something very posh and elegant to fun and flirty. The sky is virtually the limit with what looks and combinations I can choose from. I never really had nails and I never painted my nails (which were nubs that one day dreamed of being stubs) just because they were always so short. I used to be so envious of my friends who had them or that could afford to go to a salon and have them done. Then a few months ago, I discovered Jamberry Nail wraps and I wondered how on Earth I ever lived life without them. Since wearing them, my nails have grown (finally) and I don't have to worry about the designs fading, chipping, or showing wear. My wraps have lasted a whole month and would have probably lasted longer, but I like to change them pretty often.


Picture this if you will, you purchase one of my Buy 3 Get 1 deals for $45, plus tax and the cost of shipping and handling, or the exclusive limited time Ruby & Rose Mother's Day Gift Set for the same price, and add the Jamberry Nail Cleanser, Lacquer Remover, or the Cuticle Remover Pen and you have a total pampering package that will last MONTHS. There is NO SALON OR NAIL SPA THAT CAN OFFER THAT WITH JUST ONE VISIT. Even if you just purchase the Buy 3 Get 1 Free deal or the gift set minus the Nail Care products-you still have a better deal that is going to give you several looks and last longer than anything at a salon for just $45 plus tax and Shipping and Handling. WIN! WIN!

Give yourself or your loved one the gift of pampering with Jamberry Nails. There are over 300 designs to choose from, several lacquers to try out, and a great Nail Care Line to add to your Jamberry experience!

Join the nail revolution, Get Pampering!

Get WRAPPED!

Jamberry Nail Wrap Tuesday Tip

Jamberry Nail Wrap Tuesday Tip 



When you buy a B3G1 deal and add a Jamberry Nail Care item(s) you are creating the ultimate gift of pampering for yourself, a friend, or someone special but more than that-you are saving money. How? Let me tell you how! 

We all do not have a money tree growing in the back yard. Most of us have bills, kids, and responsibilities. Some of us have never even been to a salon or nail spa. 

So why is this a great money saver? 

Stay with me. 


Each sheet of Jamberry nail wraps are guaranteed to give you TWO manicures and TWO pedicures. So with FOUR sheets you can get 8 manicures and pedis. ADD UP 8 VISITS TO A MANICURIST OR SALON AND TELL ME IF IT WOULD JUST COST UNDER $60 FOR ALL 8 VISITS. 

Seriously-let me know who would charge you for 8 manicures that would include color, pattern, or choice of French Tips? 

My guess, no where in the USA. 

So now that you are thinking of looking through over 300 different Jamberry wrap designs and color options-remember, you still have to keep your cuticles in great shape as well as the Jamberry Nail Lacquer Remover and Nail Cleanser will not only make removing quick and easy but will keep your natural nails with their non-acetone ingredients, looking healthy and beautiful while they are under wraps. 

The Nail Cleanser will take all those oils and residue off your nails without damaging them and the Nail Lacquer Remover not only will remove Jamberry's special nail lacquer with ease but will remove wraps as well. 


The Jamberry Cuticle Remover Pen makes it easy to get rid of having to push cuticles back. The cuticle is a very sensitive part of the nail and using this cuticle remover pen, you can remove the excess without risking applying too much pressure with an orange stick or cuticle pusher and perhaps doing damage.

The Jamberry Cuticle Oil Pen makes it easy to apply healthy cuticle oil to keep our cuticles healthy and looking beautiful while wearing our lacquer or wraps. 


So you're probably thinking, "These look great, but they probably cost an arm and a leg." 

Don't worry, you get to keep your arm and leg. Jamberry has made all 4 of these quite affordable. Each of the Nail Care items separately, are all under $20. 

So for $100 you have a total of 16 mani/pedis in total (add up 8-16 salon visits) and by choosing one or two of the Jamberry Nail Care products you have your very own customized nail experience that you can keep for yourself or give as a gift to a loved one or friend for a special event, holiday, or for no reason at all.

So the Jamberry Nail Wrap Tuesday Tip is to get in on making the most out of Jamberry by getting in on the Buy 3 Get 1 Free Jamberry Wraps and add one or more of the Jamberry Nail Care products.

Nail Stickers? Not Jamberry

STICKERS?
 
 
NOT WITH JAMBERRY!
 
 
 
When I went to my first Jamberry party, I thought the same thing, "Aww, how cute, nail stickers." Then I got my first sheet and I saw that they are definitely not stickers. So what are the Jamberry Nail Wraps?
 
 
 
 
 
Aside from being the best thing since sliced bread-Jamberry Nail wraps are not stickers. They are the hottest trend right now and were even featured on The Today Show April 6, 2015.
 
 
The wraps come in over 300 designs that range from mattes and solids to patterns. They have an assortment of French Tips as well as clear wraps with opaque designs that go great with a base coat of Jamberry Lacquer. They even have an art studio where you can design your very own wraps. How neat is that? Still want to know what the wraps are, huh?
 
The Jamberry Nail wraps are a type of high quality vinyl that are imprinted with the various designs and styles of the Jamberry lines. When applied correctly, they bond to the nail without damaging it and form a seal. These nails can last anywhere from two weeks to a month. Each sheet of wraps will do 2-3 manicures depending on the size of the nail and two pedicures. The Junior Jams can give up to six manicures. There is no salon or nail tech that will  give you this kind of guarantee. Jamberry Nail Wraps will NOT chip or fade. They will not cause nail infections or harm your nail in any shape or form.
 
 
Applying them is pretty easy and takes far less time than any salon or nail spa.
 
Here are all the things you need to get started.
 


                                The first thing you will do is wash your hands with Dawn dish soap and dry them completely.  If you don't have this kit-it's alright. Just make sure you have a file, nail scissors, and some cuticle pushers. You will also need either the Jamberry Mini Heater or your standard hair blower.

                              Second-take either an alcohol pad or acetone and go over each of your nails to make sure they are free from any oils. Then fit your nails to the according Jamberry strip and use your scissors to cut them out. I get a small tip sharpie and outline on the gray side with the clear plastic still in place and then cut around that so I have a more accurate size for my nail.

                             Third step is to peel the backing from the nail wrap and give it a few seconds of heat. I usually give it a 10 second count. Using your fingers-be careful to not touch the sticky side of the wrap or use tweezers. Tweezers are HIGHLY recommended.  Line it up on your nail and make sure it covers your nail but not your cuticle.

                            Fourth Step is simple-use your orange stick or finger and press the wrap on and rub out any puckers or air bubbles. Then shoot the heat to it. I usually count to twenty. You do not need to hold the dryer or heater right on the nail. Don't burn yourself.

                           The end result will be beautiful nails that everyone will be talking about and you will have saved time and money. Jamberry Nail Wraps only take about 15 minutes-as opposed to a trip to the salon or spa. WIN! WIN!




                            Right now you can buy 3 Jamberry Nail Wraps and get 1 FREE! That's a great steal of a deal that won't last forever. Get your Jam on and make it Jamberry Nails!

Prom Night 2015

    Prom is something just about every girl dreams about when they start high school. Well, I did anyhow and so did most of my friends. We watched the upper classmen talk about where they were going to eat, who was getting a limo, and most of the upper class girls always had magazines where they pointed out the dresses they would have sold their right kidney to possess for one special night. When I was a junior in high school, I couldn't wait! Instead of a boyfriend, I took a friend. The prom theme that year was "Lady in Red". 
I ended up being the Lady in Pink. My grandma did not think unmarried girls needed to wear "red" or "black".  I think it was because all the dresses I wanted were either off the shoulder or strapless. If my grandma would have had her way I would have looked like I had just stepped out of Gone With The Wind but she settled for a tea length pink lace tulip sleeve dress. I didn't complain because it was better than the mauve monstrosity-which begs the question-why do so many grannies like dirty pink? That's what mauve looks like-pink with some dirt mixed in. Okay, I'm straying from my story here. 

In 1993, getting ones nails done was not affordable. I mean it probably was but I didn't have any nails (not like the gorgeous Jamberry ones I have now) and I sure didn't have the $65. I didn't even get those beautiful satin dyed shoes everyone else was getting but I was happy to get what I did. My mom and grandma both out did themselves and after a trip to the salon-I looked pretty good, I have to say. They even got me Lee Press Ons, which my sister Kim put on with glue. I had beaten the system-or at least that's how I felt when I looked at my little pink kitten claws. I just figured I wouldn't go to the bathroom or try to pick up anything. Simple, right? I was determined.

Now this is where the magic night kind of takes a downward spiral. My date, who was a friend, began acting funny. Maybe it was all the romantic songs being played or all the black vases with fake roses tucked in them, but for some reason-he began thinking he was Romeo and I was his Juliet. Sweet, right? Wrong. He wasn't a bad guy-he was my friend after all but it's hard to be sweet on someone that kept talking about the rate of car accidents on Prom nights and survival rates of said crashes. Kinda puts a damper on things. 

We sat at my friends' table and we were laughing and conversing while eating our chocolate covered strawberries and cheese cubes until my date-Romeo, began shrieking like a little girl who just had her Barbie ripped away. I didn't know boys past puberty could do this but apparently they can. 
"Oh My GOD! You're Hair!" 

Instantly, my first thought was, "OH MY GOD I HAVE  A SPIDER IN MY HAIR!" because why else would something about my well coiffed hair be something to be afraid of?

He reached over and grabbed something out (pulling well hair sprayed hair I might add) of my hair. I didn't want to look, but I did. I was praying I didn't see eight legs or worse. 

No, what I saw was a frosty pink Lee Press On nail  and his horrified face. 

"Are you okay? It's your nail! You're entire nail just came off! Are you okay? Let me see.." 

M-O-R-T-I-F-I-C-A-T-I-O-N

Short of using death threats and looking to see how I could have made a shank out of my plastic fork, I was prepared to kill him but no one else around our table seemed to have noticed his outbursts and my friends snapped out of their "deer in headlights" stare. I got him calmed down and just as I was going to drink some more of my cherry coke, I noticed something floating in it and something that was missing from my hand. 

That's my prom story and my senior prom was leaps and bounds better but I keep thinking back to if they had only had Jamberry Nail Wraps-I would have not had this problem. I would have looked even more spectacular with my mixed manicure and would have even had my toes decked out-not that they would have shown but who knows-Post Prom is even more fun than formal! 

Is your daughter ready for prom? Are you looking for something that goes above and beyond the call of the nail tech and salon prices? 

You are cordially invited to Jamberry Prom 2015. The theme is Facebook casual. There is going to be fun games to play as well as special discounts and maybe some give-a-ways! It only lasts until Wednesday April 15th. Bring a friend and have them bring a friend to Jamberry Prom 2015!

Now Featuring, Jam Mama Abigail Shoeff of Bluffton, Indiana's Journey with Jamberry

Abigail Schoeff  is a lead consultant for Jamberry Nails and leads a pretty busy life. She is living proof that ANYONE can have success with Jamberry. Here is her story of her journey so far. She's also my Jam Mama and I am honored and happy to be part of her team!








       My Jamberry Journey. A friend of mine had been posting pictures of Jamberry wraps for over a year. I had always ignored them because I never even painted my nails. I am a mom to 3 amazing children ages 4, 5 & 7. Waiting for nail polish to dry in between making PB & J, doing laundry and cleaning house was not an option for me. One of my kiddos has also been diagnosed with Kabuki Syndrome & Autism. We are always on the go with doctor & therapy appointments. I am also a full time college student working toward my BS in Elementary Ed & Special Ed. So, i really don't have much me time. Anyway, right before Christmas, my friend posted a sale of her wraps. I decided to purchase some to support her. Once I got them, I placed them on a shelf and let them collect dust for a month. I was really nervous that I would mess up the application. 



        In January, she started posting about opportunities with Jamberry. I thought, maybe. We really needed the money, because we are a one income family, with me in school & our daughter in therapy & doctor appointments, we were kind of strapped. So, I sent my friend a message. She told me what I needed to do & I signed up that very day, January 9, 2015! I started a Facebook party for myself and earned back the price of the kit plus some. I had a few more parties that totaled $857 in sales & I signed a consultant under me. In February, I did $1057 in sales & signed 2 consultants. In March, I did $1583 in sales & signed another consultant. I have advanced twice to Lead Consultant, which has more earning potential. Each level that a consultant advances earns more money. Plus, I make money off of my team members. 





    


     The commission is one of the best compensation plans that I have seen. Jamberry has been very rewarding for me. It has pushed me out of my comfort zone but in a good way. I enjoy getting together with friends and new people and sharing Jamberry with them. I really love the products & I have an amazing team. I provide incentives for them to reach goals & I truly want them to be successful! Give Jamberry wraps a try, you will LOVE them & you may even want to join our team.

The World Is Big Enough For All Of Us Nailers, Wrappers, and Picassos


     I was talking to a friend today because I'm trying to drum up a customer base. She giggled at me as I did my little speech (which I thought I sounded pretty good-she said I sounded like I had something up my nose). She asked me something and it made me wonder how many other people feel like this. The question she asked was, "Girl, do you think these things will put people out of jobs? I mean like they go to cosmo school and everything." First off, Jamberry Wraps are not trying to replace artificial nails. Jamberry is less hassle, more economical, and for the ones who can't do false nails-Jamberry is there to meet their needs. To my manicurist and salon friends out there-Jamberry is a tool you too can use! You can offer your clients something more than what you are used to as well as offer the services you do now. So it's not going to put anyone out of business. I would never support a product or service that would put people out of a job. The world is big enough for us all. 

    Jamberry has wraps and lacquer (think of your best nail polish and times that times ten and you might have something almost as good as the Jamberry lacquer) and their products appeal to those of us who can't get to a salon, have small nails, and may not can tolerate false nails and the prep. Jamberry nail wraps do not cause nail infections, fungus, nor will they do any damage to your nail beds. Jamberry has cuticle oil and encourages users to take proper care of their cuticles while using their wraps. They have over 300 designs to choose from. All of us love nail art. I think those that can do them are totally cool but I never had the length or money to afford all those beautiful and neat artsy designs. Jamberry not only has such a wide variety to choose from but their wraps can be made to fit any size nail as well as their Junior Jams which are smaller and popular with little girls. Not all nail artists can do designs let alone art work on small nails. 

            In my opinion, we are still going to go to salons. That's never going to change and cosmetologists and nail techs are still going to create gorgeous manicures and artwork. Jamberry is going to be a compliment I think because their wraps are such a high quality product that is affordable to everyone. So before you panic-no one is hoping that spas and nail salons go to Hades. We love our spas and nail salons. Jamberry is a revolution in something different and something that is for all those who always wanted pretty nails but either couldn't afford it or thought their nails were too short. 

        The world is big enough for all of us whether we be nailers or wrappers. Jamberry gives you everything you want from a salon manicure without having to go to the salon. You're a fan of originality? I am too! However, originality from a trained nail tech can run you some money. Jamberry's Art Studio allows you to design your own wraps and order them to wear or give as gifts. I don't know of any salon or nail tech that will let you sit down and do a nail design for under twenty bucks for all ten fingers and toes. 


           Jamberry also allows for it's customers the unique experience of being an independent consultant. Nail techs have to go to school and have to be licensed. Jamberry doesn't require any of that. Their Jamberry U is a tool to use but you will never have to worry about updating a license or pay for classes. Jamberry Nails pays their independent consultants by offering them a very nice commission percentage and ways to get even more income.  Jamberry also doesn't require a lot of chemicals such as nail resins, buffing and shaping tools, UV Lights, air brush or other equipment other than orange sticks, a heat source such a hair blower or the Jamberry Nails Mini Heater. 

         For me, personally, I love the fact that this isn't just some sort of gimmick to get people to spend money they don't have and have the ability to make money on such an easy product. 

              So what are you waiting for?

It All Started With Facebook

By now you have probably read the small little box that tells you about myself. Let me tell you a little bit more. I am a writer-that much is true and I have always loved it, but until I can make a career from it, I have been really stuck trying to make extra income. The day I got a party invite for a Jamberry party was really by accident. I had accidentally clicked on Events on my Facebook profile and it looked kind of nifty. There was some games going on and I thought they looked fun. The hostess, I knew because she had gone to the same school as I had so I figured, "Why not?". I won a few prizes and the consultant began telling me about Jamberry and how she had made money from selling it. I was pretty skeptical because hello, I had gone through my phases of throwing product parties of various products and I never could reach the minimum sales. I literally beat myself up over trying to afford a picture from Home Interior. I just would get so close but never enough. However, there was something about all the information about Jamberry and her own story and experiences really hit home. She was a mom just like me and lived on a budget too yet had taken this leap of faith with this product. I began to do my homework and I began to wonder-"How had I never heard of this product before?" It was started by 3 moms-wives and none of the goals for consultants were so high that one couldn't obtain them. I began to believe I could do it too! There was just one tiny little hindrance-the cost of the starter kit. Two days had already passed and the lady hit me up just to see if I had any questions and how I was feeling about the whole consultant part of Jamberry. I told her my concerns and she gave me a way to help pay for my starter kit. The rest is history. I had my first online Facebook party and while I didn't earn my Fast Start and get at least $150 in sales, I haven't let that discourage me. So what makes these wraps the best thing since sliced bread? 1. They are affordable. Each sheet gives 2 manicures (Jamicures) and 2 Pedicures. They are $15 each or Buy 3 Get 1 Free 2. There are over 300 designs to choose from plus Lacquer Jamberry has over 300 designs including their charity wraps that give either Autism Awareness $2 from each sale goes to either Autism Awareness Society of America or Heart Health. 3. Jamberry Nails rewards their consultants and it's WIN! WIN! 4. Women are making money and still able to be a mother and friendly. 5. PRODUCT! FREE PRODUCT! Who doesn't like that? 6. All the Consultants and those over them help each other and thrive and are there for support as well. 7. Did I mention that you can make money? So I hope that you will keep coming back because I intend on chronicling my Jamberry Nails Journey to becoming a Lead Consultant and don't forget to visit my links! Jamberry has a great promotion going on right now with Buy 3 Get 1 Free. That's a total of 8 manicures and 8 pedicures for $45 USD and there is NO SALON anywhere that will give you that nor can guarentee that a salon manicure with nail art will last a minimum of 2 weeks with no chipping or fading.
