THE NAIL SHOP EXHIBITION x KEITA MARUYAMA PREVIEW EVENT REPORT 12.20.2011

I personally don't usually do nail art but I was interested in this event but Aya Fukuda designs LADY GAGA's nail art!  I was curious what kind of nail art would be on display and also this was a collaboration with Keita Maruyama! This is different from GEL NAILS...they are Chips that go on top of your nail so they can easily be glued on and taken off.  Convenient!

 This is a SNOW GLOBE installation by Keitaさん

 these diamonds are Swarvosky

 the chains are super gnarly aren't they!

 Keita Maruyama x Aya Fukuda

Aya has been living in New York and has decided to launch her Nail art in Tokyo for the first time.  I would say the response was great!  I felt her designs were super edgy and not just 'cute' like how the GEL NAILS are in Japan.  The Nail Shop, also opened across the street in DAIKANYAMA but I didn't have enough time today to check it out!  If you are interested in Aya's Nail Shop, please check the info below

JURILIQUE, AOYAMA - RECOMMENDED FOR PRENATAL FACIALS & MASSAGES IN TOKYO ♥

In a little alley behind Bell Commons in Gaienmae, I discovered another JURILIQUE, one which offered PRENATAL MASSAGES & FACIALS. I had to try it!!!!!  If you didn't already know, JURILIQUE is an organic cosmetic brand from Australia.. For English info click: HERE

 I have visited the shop in Jiyugaoka..but they didn't offer the Prenatal service there.. 

 good Christmas presents yes?

 #1 cleansers 

 that was a little tour of the shop...

but the real reason I was here..was for my massage.....you're not allowed to get a massage when you are within your first trimester (First 3 months of pregnancy because there is a risk of a miscarriage)..so I hadn't had a massage since I got pregnant... and anyone who knows me KNOWS that I NEED my massages like every other weeek!! It's been tough! so you can see how excited and HAPPY I was to discover this!!!!! The room was equipt with the prego body pillow...one that I really need to invest in very soon as my back is starting to hurt and it's getting more and more difficult to sleep comfortably!

 everything was organic. yay!

I will say that..this was one of the most amazing massages that I have ever had in my entire LIFE! The facial was great too!! Hubby even noticed that my skin was a bit lighter..hehe If you are pregnant and are looking for a place to get a maternity massage, I highly recommend JURILIQUE!  The staff are very friendly and well trained.  Of course they offer regular spa services too which you can find on their website.  To find this specific JURILIQUE please click here: JURILIQUE AOYAMA

妊娠してるの方にここのJURILIQUEでマタニティーマッサジーはオススメです！！すごい気持ち良かった！！！！最高です！ JURILIQUE AOYAMA もちろんふつのMENUもあるので是非CHECKしてください！！！
