The Deal

A Nails-By-Ria beautician shapes clients’ nails and neatens the cuticles in an express manicure or pedicure. With the canvas ready, the nail technician then applies a coat of either hybrid gel Shellac or Gelish polish, both designed to create a high-shine finish that resists chipping. Clients can also upgrade to French polish for a supplement of £5 per set of nails.

Choose from the following options for nail treatments with Shellac or Gelish polish:

• £9.90 for an express manicure or an express pedicure (51% off)

• £17.90 for an express manicure and an express pedicure (60% off)
