NAILS | Aveniro Glass Files Review (Pretty AND Functional!)

You guys know that I like painting my nails. Like A LOT. I have talked about how I stopped cutting my nails and instead only file my nails because of the extra control I have when it comes to shaping them for those cuticle close-ups. At the beginning, I was using a fine grit emery board to keep my nail length in check, but switched to glass on the recommendation of another nail blogger. Not all glass files are created equally and over time I have used nail files that either dull quickly or were never that sharp to begin with. The Czech Republic, while known for its scenic beauty, is also known for creating some of the best glass nail files in existence (this is of course, just my humble opinion).

Aveniro is located in the northern part of the Czech Republic, near a glass-making district, so they must really know their glass nail files! Currently, Aveniro focuses mainly on wholesale distribution, but hopefully we will see an online shop for them if we show them some love! I recently received a couple of Aveniro glass files to try and not just for nails, but for feet too!

GIFT IDEA | Your Neighbourhood Nail Addict Will Love the MICRO Nail

I have mentioned before that I am not a fan of filing my nails. I love the process of painting, but any prep work is less than appealing to me. I have tons of those 4-in-1 buffers that guarantee smooth and shiny nails, but do you think I enjoy using them? Not really. I’ll buff my nails if there are some serious ridges, but other than that, I can’t be bothered.

Remember how much I raved about the MICRO Pedi in the summer (review)? Say hello to the MICRO Nail ($59.99 CDN)*, an electric nail polisher that buffs and shines your nails in literally seconds! Each MICRO Nail comes with two patented rollers: the MICRO Smooth and the MICRO Shine rotating 360 degrees and up to 1800 times/minute.

GIVEAWAY (Open Internationally) | Mont Bleu Glass Nail Files with BLING!

You all know that I LOVE doing my nails. In fact, the day I get too old to do them will be a sad day for me. I don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned this, but I NEVER cut my nails with a nail clipper. I ONLY use a glass file so now that I’ve tried everything from what’s available at the drugstore to even Julep, I can honestly say that I ONLY use my Mont Bleu glass nail file (review). The Czech-tempered glass is both smooth to the touch, yet files my nails like a BOSS. It stays sharp all the time and it is actually guaranteed for life.

I refuse to use anything else which is why I am pleased to announce that Mont Bleu is generously giving one lucky Cosmetic Proof reader a set of 3 glass files with Swarovski elements. The winner will be able to choose from either the black design above or from the following three designs:
