You will soon be able to do Minx (well sort of) at home! Minx and OPI have teamed up with Sephora to distribute OPI Chic Prints for Nail Design Appliqués. Now, of course there’s a catch to this “at home Minx” application. Peep what the founders of Minx had to say…

The OPI Chic Prints will be marketed as nail fashion that lasts one to two days, and they are applied using only hand-generated friction. Initially, eight designs will be introduced, with additional designs for holidays. None of the designs will be the same as the professional designs that we offer at the MinxNails.com online store.

The OPI Chic Prints are not in any way an alternative to the original Minx nails, which must be applied by a nail professional, and which last 4 to 8 days on the fingers, and up to 4 weeks on toes…

Yep!! Tennis star Serena Williams is in Nail School! I personally think she is sooo cool for doing this! Serena teamed up with a company called HairTech to do her own nail collection. So she decided that in order for her to know more about the nail biz, she would go to school to be a nail tech. Check out more of her nail school adventures, on her blog, at Global Grind. Go Serena! I wish you the best!!!
