Everyone is buzzing about Mrs. Shawn Carter’s new video for Single Ladies (I am predicting a lot of hush engagement rings will be doled out this Christmas…) so I managed to get the insider scoop on some behind-the-scenes action of Bouncy and her younger sis Solange. These days, they are both sporting a new development in nails called MINX. My girl, celebrity manicurist Lisa Logan gave me the 411 on MINX recently and admitted that she is quite excited about this creative treatment because of the versatility it offers. (Know that Lisa doesn’t easily excite.) Obviously both Beyonce and Solange have ridiculous schedules: shooting ad campaigns in Bermuda one week and videos in NYC the next. With MINX, Lisa is able to take her clients from sizzling gold metallic to striking platinum in mere minutes without sacrificing the nail’s health which is of utmost importance to her.
Basically, MINX is a film; not a polish so there is no smudging, no chipping and no drying time. This flexible film is applied with heat and pressure and also allows for logos, graphics and other designs to appear on the nail in much less time and effort than the airbrushing of the 1990s. Plus the nails don’t look fake. Ladies, you can even apply MINX to your toes to enhance a pedicure as Beyonce did with the Gold Lightening film in the pic below. Solange showed her support for our next president Barack Obama on her MINX nails (peep his image in the 5th pic from top) while shooting her latest video T.O.N.Y. How freakin’ cool is that? Guess we can expect a cameo from Cee-Lo in that upcoming T.O.N.Y. video, huh?
The "glove" above made an appearance in Beyonce's Single Ladies video...

As a girl who hates she doesn't get mani/pedi's regularly, these nails might be thing I need to have my tips looking fly. Are they expensive?
What a clever MINX!:)
Big C, a Mini Minx Training Kit will cost ya $49.99 (including shipping) and includes:
1 Minx Crystal Nail File
10 practice sets of Minx Clear Nail Armour (manicure only)
1 set of Minx manicure and pedicure in Golden Lightning
1 set of Minx manicure and pedicure in Silver Lightning
Access to the Minx training video
However, I strongly suggest only allowing a professional manicurist to apply Minx (@ least for the first time). Lisa is based in NYC and can hook you up. Just lemme know...
