Kit Contains

• Fuse LED lam

• Cleanser
• 12 lint-free wipe
• Double sided nail buffer and Manicure stick

Fuse Gelnamel has been developed for people who did not want the multiple steps & 2 week wear of a full gel polish, but still wanted no dry time. Fuse is described as being neither a full gel, or a standard polish – it’s a combination that applies in 1 coat (you can do 2 if you prefer), cures in 30 seconds and lasts for up to 7 days. what I love about this kit is that it is portable! You know when you are going on holiday, you have had your nails done and then you chip one - annoying! Well rather than carry half your manicure kit with you, all you need is this box of joy. 

 The lamp, is designed to fit one finger in it at a time, so if you are like me and like to take your time to do your nails to ensure each one is done properly, well this little beauty is just amazing! You can either plug it in at the mains, or whilst you are sat commenting on blogs, or even writing your post, you can use the USB adaptor and use it whilst blogging or reading the news or whatever - what a good idea that is right?  I think it is amazing and it is currently my favourite gadget!

Fuse polishes are available in a wide variety of colours and cost £15 each and again there is a current offer of buy one get one half price on these polishes.

For initial treatment apply one coat without colour. Reapply daily over existing coats until your nails improve. After 5 days, remove with mild nail enamel remover and re-start the process.

A multi solution product with Argan Oil & replenishing mineral complex.These ingredients help provide the moisture balance necessary to have flexible nails and prevent brittleness & breakage.

This formula also contains a unique mineral complex designed to help moisturize, condition & strengthen

I have been using all three of these products for last 6 weeks and have noticed some improvement in my nails.  I suffer with weak nails, they split and peel which is really annoying, so by using the All in One solution, whilst my nails are not perfect, they do peel less than they did.

The final present for any nail lover has to be a decent nail file, especially one which is as cute as this from Catseye London, everyone knows how much I love cats, I have three of my own, so for me, this nail file set and mirror would be a perfect addition to any stocking.
