COVID-19 has wreaked havoc on our lifestyles – we’re staying in (and we implore you to, as well). Life has changed. Drastically. While it’s not permanent, it’s a big shift, and we’re all feeling it. While you’re doing the right thing (spatial and social distancing + self isolating), we’re updating you with what you need to know about all the things you love. How you can still eat, drink, consume, watch and buy the things that bring you joy. How you can continue to support Australian businesses, artists, creators, makers and more. How you can stay amused, active, educated and entertained at home. How we can all stay connected to the things that make us us.
Nail salon owner Tatyana Stojanovic may have temporarily closed her doors, but this hasn’t stopped her from creating something new and beautiful to continue sharing her love of gel nails and meet the demand. Tatyana is the proud owner of online-based gel nail brand, Gelicious Nail Co, stocking DIY peel-off gel nail kits.
Reflecting on the need for business owners to pivot and embrace new opportunities during the COVID-19 pandemic, Tatyana is encouraging people to buy a Gelicious gel nail kit and learn a new skill – doing their own nails. Gelicious has launched three brand new colour collections over the past month.
Tatyana is committed to keeping up with the latest nail trends, giving home nail enthusiasts exciting colour options. She says that with everything that’s happening in the world at the moment, it’s important to make ourselves feel beautiful and to have some fun.
“Given the current health concerns, I think that these new Gelicious colours will bring some fun and beauty into life at home. The new ‘I’ll Go With You Anywhere’ collection is a celebration of our favourite travel destinations and sparkles, while ‘The Autumn Range’ highlights this season’s tones- red, emerald green, and terracotta.
“The third collection which has just launched is called ‘80s Flashback’; a chrome colour collection which is all about being bold and playful… because girls just want to have fun!
“Launching three brand new collections in the space of a month is a first for me, which is really exciting. I want to give Gelicious customers colours that they truly love and have been asking for.
“Anyone can use our Gelicious peel-off gel nail system to create salon-quality gel manicures from the comfort of the couch. If you’re bored in isolation or your local nail salon is closed, using Gelicious is a fun and safe way to create salon manicures yourself.”
The Gelicious system is ideal for home nail enthusiasts because of the unique Peel-Off Gel Base & Top Coat. This allows for the safe removal of the product at home without the need to soak in acetone, as Gelicious peel-off gels are removed by soaking in hot water for one- two minutes.
