Jake and Jessica Are Preparing to Get Nailed

PopSugar — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 05:04:00 -0700

We wouldn't have pegged Jake Gyllenhaal as a personal umbrella holder kind of guy, but there it was yesterday on the set of Nailed in Columbia, SC. It's a little silly, but his hands are full and he does have that injury that has had him using crutches recently. Joining Jake on set was his co-star Jessica Biel, looking so much better with darker hair, who kept busy playing with her dog Tina in-between takes. The plot of this movie sounds bizarre, but hopefully these two will make it worth seeing.

Jake Gyllenhaal and Jessica Biel Get Nailed... By Al Gore's Daughter

BuzzSugar — Mon, 05 Nov 2007 13:28:13 -0800

The title of this post is scandalous and strange, but so is this film news. Al Gore's daughter Kristin Gore is co-writing a screenplay titled Nailed (not based on either of her novels Sammy's Hill or Sammy's House). Jake Gyllenhaal and Jessica Biel are attached to star together in the movie.

Here's the plot: "Biel would play Sammy Joyce, a socially awkward small-town receptionist who has a nail accidentally shot into her head by a clumsy workman, eliciting wild sexual urges. The uninsured Joyce goes on a crusade to Washington to fight for the rights of the bizarrely injured. She meets an immoral congressman (Gyllenhaal) who takes advantage of her sex drive and capitalizes on her crusade as Joyce heads into her own career in politics."

I'm picturing something along the lines of Secretary, sort of dark and bizarre and sexual, but Jessica Biel is no Maggie Gyllenhaal. I'm curious to find out how Kristin Gore's foray into screenwriting goes. What do you think of this movie news?

Silver Nail Varnish Is Making a Comeback!

BellaSugarUK — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 06:00:00 -0800

Silver nail polish is definitely not a brand-new trend, in fact, it was popular in the 80's and then re-surfaced about a year and a half ago with basic-coloured metallics like silver and gold. Many permutations like gunmetal, blue and chrome, spawned from the basics, while gold and silver seemed to fade with the season. Now it's back again and this time, we're seeing silver on some of Hollywood's hottest girls like Lindsay Lohan (spotted in Paris) and Paris Hilton (dressed up as a Pussycat Doll). Below are my picks for best silver varnish - do you have a favourite shade too?

Creative Nail Design in Silver Anniversary (£10) is a shiny, fast-drying metallic nail colour. It's creates a mirror-like finish lasting up to six days before showing signs of chipping and it imparts a high-shine finish.

To check out two more stylish silver nail varnishes, read more.

OPI Give Me The Moon (£9.50) is a lighter and slightly more sheer shade of silver, however, it creates an intense shimmer and a slick, wet-like effect on your fingertips.

Nails Inc. The Thames (£10.50) launched last December, yet it remains one of the company's best-sellers. This sparkling grey was inspired by the catwalk and creates a sexy, smooth and glossy result.

Fake 'Em Till You Make 'Em: Acrylic Nails 101

BellaSugar — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 08:00:03 -0700

There are few people with long, perfect nails who aren't using at least a little - and usually a lot - of acrylic nail powder. Acrylic powder is a polymer that, combined with a setting agent, creates a resin with properties similar to your natural nails, except even stronger and more flexible. Which means it's a great way to cover up a myriad of nail issues, and a life-saver even for non-biters and people who've never had a chip. To learn about the best ways to use acrylic for yourself, keep reading

Trend Alert: Grey Nail Varnish

BellaSugarUK — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 07:30:00 -0800

I first remember reading about grey nail polish about a year ago and I never thought it would actually catch on. At the time, silver was big on the scene, and the multitude of metallic variations were making their splash. However, it looks like lately, grey is the polish of the posh. Recently we've seen Gwyneth Paltrow at the Two Lovers Premiere, Victoria Beckham at Beso and Lauren Conrad at the D&G boutique opening party all groomed with gloom. Below are three great grey shades for you to check out.

Models Own Nail Varnish in Grey (£6) is a cool-toned shade that dries to an extra hard finish. Two coats of this matte, concrete colour is all you'll need for a high-shine result.

For two more grey nail polish picks, read more.

Nails Inc. Charlotte Street Nail Polish (£10) is a pale grey polish with a subltle hint of shimmer. This fashionable choice stays put for up to eight days without chipping (as long as you keep reapplying a top coat every other day).

Barry M Nail Polish in Rich Grey (£2.89) is a long lasting, quick-drying nail varnish that won't break the bank. Known for it's fashionable colour selection, this rich grey is a sexy, on-trend colour for winter.

As you may already know, the French clothing company Paul & Joe has branched out into developing beauty products. I couldn't resist writing about their ultra chic metallic nail polish color called, Etoile Scintillante, $12.
