Jennifer Champion believes
sparkle makes everything
better. Acrylic stiletto and
Champion almond are her shapes
of choice because they are flattering
and supply more room for creativity.
Champion is also a big believer in
rhinestones. "Different colors and sizes
make them much more dramatic," she
says. Champion adds sparkle by using a
brush on sealant, metal tongs, and clear
acrylic along with a good carbide bit
for removal. "For Halloween I will be in
Hawaii with my field lacrosse team and
we are dressing up as gnomes. I plan on
matching my nails perfectly to the color
of my shorts and maybe throwing in a
gnome head on some nails," she says.
