I got this Magnificent Manicure Kit in the mail two weeks ago to review. Though I’m not actively reviewing products anymore, something about this product sparked my curiosity. According to the kit’s description, kids can learn about cosmetic chemistry while enjoying a magnificent manicure! They can create their custom-scented lotion, make crystal mud, buff and shine nails, and much more!

They immediately claimed their stake on the package the moment they saw it. I told them they’d have to wait for the weekend to do it. So come Saturday, they couldn’t wait to get their hands on it.

Since I was busy that time with the Twilight saga (think I was reading Eclipse that time), I didn’t want to get my hands “dirty”, so I just let them have fun doing the experiment. The lotion concoction really smelled good. The kids had a blast following the step by step instructions, making sure they have accurate measurements of their potion’s ingredients. They can’t help but giggle in their new found independence in going through their “lab” project.

When their custom-scented lotion was done, they were of course very happy with their accomplishment and I was there beaming with pride for them. We all enjoyed soaking our hands and feet on the crystal mud, buffing our nails, and then moisturizing them with their “magic potion”. Our house was of course filled with the special scent which had the aromatherapy effect on it so it helped relaxed us more. All in all, I would say that it was a very good educational activity for the kids and a pleasurable girly experience for all of us.
