Weekend Beauty Magic: Repairing A Broken Nail With A Tea Bag

Broken nails were never an issue B4J (before Jamberry) because I didn't have any nails. I had nubs dreaming of one day being stubs. Now that I have nails, I literally want to cry because I have nails now and I hate it when they break.


       One great tip I found for repairing those nails was on a tutorial on You Tube. I was a bit skeptical about it at first but now that I know what to do-I'll never go back to tips, acrylics, or anything like that again. So follow these steps and you too will have a great looking nails.
   



            Things You Will Need:

             1 ordinary tea bag (don't use your best tea, okay)

              1 pair of small scissors preferably manicure scissors (they are really inexpensive but regular scissors will work too.)

              1 glass file (they sell these at beauty supply stores or you can use a fine grain buffer block)

               1 bottle of clear polish *Jamberry Strengthening Coat works great at strengthening your nail without all the harsh and damaging properties that regular polish may have.

                Clean and dry nails *Jamberry Nail Cleanser is great at removing oils and residue off nails*

              To Start:
  Start by cleaning your nails-be careful around the part of the nail that is broken.  Next, open the tea bag and pour the tea out. Sorry but you won't be needing it for this. You simply want the bag. Take your scissors and cut a piece only big enough to cover the part of the nail that is broken.  Apply clear to entire nail and then apply your tea bag patch.Now you can cover your entire nail *as shown below*  but you will have to do just a bit of extra buffing and filing.

 

 

 

       Next when it is dry, take your glass file or buffer block and gently buff or file down any rough edges and smooth out the nail. If you are doing this over acrylic nails, go very easy so that you don't ruin your manicure. Those get costly. Once you have it filed or buffed down and it is somewhat smooth-apply another coat of the clear base. Let it dry completely. You should not see the tea bag patch and if you do it should be barely visible. Now the nail is ready to lacquer, gel, or wrap and the nail will hopefully fuse back in place.

#Because of Jamberry

#Because of Jamberry

  I became a Jamberry Consultant because I really REALLY loved Jamberry. I had never seen or  heard of anything like Jamberry Nail Wraps before and of course, I didn't just jump right in-I had questions and even doubts. I've never been a sales person. Jamberry was NOT like Avon, House of Lloyd, Garden Party, Pure Romance, Home Interior, or even Tupperware. Those are all great companies by the way, but I never really had too much success with hosting or getting my friends and family to purchase anything or even purchase enough for hostess rewards. I would work my guts out making sure my house was spotless even with small kids running around, fixing finger foods to entice people to come, and doing everything that the consultants asked of me to do to ensure sales. It was frustrating beyond belief and when I was approached with being a Jamberry Consultant, I didn't want anyone to feel like I did-because of my budget that I was basically wasting my time trying to achieve some unattainable level of success. That's no fun for anyone but Jamberry makes it really easy!

    For starters, most of Jamberry's products are affordable. One sheet is still under $20 in the US and Canada and just a few dollars more with sales from Australia and New Zealand. I also looked at how easy it is for not only myself to make money but for each hostess to have the potential of getting hostess rewards with ease. I also looked at how easy it would be to get women who wanted to feel empowered about making their own income to sign up and be part of my team. So it was a no brainer to invest and join the Jamberry Sisterhood.

 

       Because of Jamberry, I don't take any time away from being a mother, wife, Ni Ni, my home, or the things I love doing. I still read books and I still write novels and novellas. I still do crafts when the opportunity comes up (right now I am making author SWAG and Jamberry SWAG for parties-just another reason to be a hostess with me). I don't stay huddled in my house nor do I beat down doors or spend money on gas I don't have driving all over town and the surrounding areas throwing catalogs and samples at people. I work from home at my own pace.  I get asked, "Well, how much money have you made?", now I would love to say that I bank roll the commission. I haven't quite reached that level yet but I'M ON MY WAY! I will say that since beginning in March 2015, I have made a little over $150. I have had 2 successful fundraisers in which a lot of money was raised for Relay For Life and most recently money for my grandchild who was diagnosed this past summer with bi-lateral hip dysplasia and had to have the first of two grueling major surgeries that requires her to have a SPICA chair which costs up to $250.


     Because of Jamberry I feel as if I am growing as a human being. Does that sound silly? I have always been a very passive and shy person. Since becoming a Jamberry Consultant, I have been thrust out of my safe little comfort zone and had to challenge myself. I have met so many women who are like me, many who are the total opposite of me, and women who inspire me to really believe in myself and obtaining my goals. Every day women who for the most part are stay at home moms and moms who work full time jobs have supplemented not only their income but have had life changing experiences all because of Jamberry Nails. Recently I attended a Jamberry Summit and none-literally NONE of the women who were speakers because they were some of the top sellers in the company were over night successes. They shared their wisdom and there was not one drop of self serving at all in the crowded room. Women from all walks of life were there and had the same desire I had-to be successful, to improve their business, and because Jamberry is a company that really cares about every single one of us. How many companies do that? Most companies and industries treat their employees as a disposable work force; they're just numbers. Because of Jamberry-we're not disposable. We are not just numbers.


          Because of Jamberry I want to offer you, dear readers, a chance to improve your financial situation. Because of Jamberry I want you to know you can do a job-belong to a company that recognizes you as an asset NOT disposable or a number. I want YOU to be part of my team!

        I am not offering a sales pitch here. I'm offering a means to be more-to go further than you ever thought possible. Because of Jamberry, you can have extra money for your family, extra money to make that car payment, sports or fine arts lessons for the kids, to take that vacation that you've been dreaming about, to buy that outfit you've been dying for, and even money to help pay off those school expenses. Whatever the monetary need is-Jamberry can help! It's work-I won't lie to you-you get what you put into it but there's no gimmicks. There's no shady hidden costs or obligations. You won't be left alone nor do you have to feel as if  you're part of Stepford. Everyone who is a Jamberry Consultant is a Consultant because they choose to be one and have a passion for this new company. No one no matter how great the wraps look would invest if there was not opportunities to make money and to grow.


     Because of Jamberry I want to give you a means to make your own money but most of all to join a Sisterhood of successful women. I want to empower you. I want to help you set and achieve goals. For everyone whether you live here in the states, Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, that signs up with me before November 17, 2015, I will give you $25 towards the purchase of your kit when  you schedule to host a party with me and it reaches at least $250 in sales. If your party reaches $500 (I know it looks like a huge number but it really isn't) then I will give you $50 towards your kit. For my International ladies, I will make the appropriate conversions. Let's get those parties going and get you making your own money and have a business that is all your own. Don't be just a number!

The Ten Myths of Jamberry

Jamberry Myths Exposed

                    and 

       DEBUNKED! 




      Like any good shopper, I like to know what it is I am buying.  I won't say that I don't like to take risks, but when it comes to a beauty product-I do my homework. So I'm going to debunk some top myths about Jamberry Nails and their products and you'll see that you're missing out by not joining the Nail Revolution today! 



 1.  "Jamberry Nails are just stickers." 

  This is so not true. Pure poo here folks. Stickers for the most part are made from adhesive backed paper, foil, or plastic. JAMBERRY NAILS  are made from an adhesive backed high grade quality vinyl that will adhere to the finger nail that is non toxic and chemical free. Jamberry Nail Wraps can last anywhere from two weeks to well over a month if applied correctly. 

2. "You can't get your hands wet with Jamberry Nail wraps." 

 This is FALSE. Once the nails have been applied correctly and have set, feel free to do the dishes, laundry, hit the shower/bath, swim, or even the hot tub. They are pretty much water resistant. I am a full time mom and believe me, there isn't anything I haven't put my nail wraps through. 

3. "They are difficult to apply." 

This is not true either. When you first get your wraps, there is a slight learning curve because everyone has their own way about doing them. If you opt out of purchasing a mini heater, then it's a matter of adjusting your hair blower and applying. This tutorial is by far the best, easiest, and fastest way of applying Jams (Jamberry Nail Wraps). 

THE ABSOLUTE EASIEST JAMBERRY APPLICATION

4. "Jamberry Nails is expensive." 

Jamberry nails are not expensive. They cost less than a trip to the salon. Each sheet will give you TWO manicures and pedicures. There is no filling, no chipping, no fading, and no peeling with Jamberry Nail wraps. Here is the break down of what you will save by going with Jamberry Nails. 

5. "I love getting acrylic or gel nails. Jamberry wraps don't do falsies." 

 Ah, total myth here ladies. Jamberry wraps can be used with acrylics and gels just as easily as they are used on your natural nail. They are going to look fabulous no matter what. 

6. "I have short nails, and I don't have anything to wrap." 

    Now that is just stinkin' thinkin'. I too had little nubs of being stubs once upon a time, and I can honestly tell you that Jamberry can wrap even the smallest of nails. Jamberry even has a line just for little girls and little nails; the Jamberry Juniors. The Jamberry Juniors are great for those who have very short nails and they come in a variety of designs and styles. You can still have a sensational styled custom mixed manicure that puts even your little nubbies on center stage. 

7. "Jamberry only sells nail wraps." 

 On the contrary, Jamberry Nails has not only a nail wrap line that has over 350 designs, but they have special formulated lacquer and a great Nail Care line. Jamberry also has application kits that are going to give you an orange stick, a cuticle pusher, manicure scissors, alcohol pads, and crystal file with buffer. Jamberry also sells their mini heaters which makes application easy.  There are also their exclusive cuticle remover pen and cuticle oil pen. So if you're not really into the wraps just yet, there are several lacquer options, their Nail Care line that includes vitamins for healthy nails and the Jamberry Nails Nourish line for hands. Jamberry Nails also has gift certificates as well as a Mommy and Me line and their wraps dedicated to charity.

8. "Style Box gives me no options." 

Style Box is a GREAT option that is customized to your budget AND your own personal style. When you order Style Box, you choose whether you want to get a 3 month, 6 month, or 12 month subscription. Every month you will receive a box full of goodies with two carefully selected Jamberry Nail products valued at $30 or more, nail file, orange stick, and monthly style guide. This is also a GREAT option for gift giving. 

9. " There's no way to design my own Jamberry Nail Wraps." 

Jamberry has a unique feature called The Nail Art Studio where anyone can use non trademark or copyright images to create their own designs. This is a great option for those looking to create a special wrap to promote their business, fundraisers, club, or event. The Nail Art Studio allows you to let your own creativity shine. 

10. "Consultants do not make money selling Jamberry." 

TOTAL MYTH! Being a consultant is VERY rewarding! Consultants work from home at their own pace, hold in-home parties, and online parties. Jamberry wants to empower women and their consultants to be able to supplement their income selling their products. See the chart below to see just how rewarding it is to become a Jamberry Consultant.

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.
