New York: Bloomie Nails, not Bloomingdales

Bloomie Nails, New York

We had read about Bloomie Nails in a guide book, but we couldn’t find the place, so we asked for directions, but a lot of people thought we meant Bloomingdales, not Bloomie Nails:)

Compared to Denmark, it is a lot cheaper to get your nails done in New York, so this is a luxury I often allow myself, when I’m visiting. Though finding a nice salon, which is still affordable can be quite a challenge. When I was in New York this year, I tried Bloomie Nails, and I was so happy with the place that I’ve decided to blog about it.

Bloomie Nails is a chain of manicure salons with branches all over New York. Their salons are nice and clean and the nails technicians seem skilled and fast. An ordinary manicure is around $17, but do not forget to tip.

Due to a calculation error, Cecilia tipped a lot less than the lady, who did her nails expected, which resulted in a very fast finishing of her nails (no neck-rubbing for her) and a premature translocation to the bench, where she could sit and wait for the polish to dry. Cecilia apologized and handed the nail technician the correct tip (20%) as we left.

In addition to a broad range of manicures and pedicures, Bloomie Nails also offer different kinds of spa treatments, and if you have a secret passion for celebrity spotting, you might want to look out since Bloomie Nails according to the posters on the walls, have a lot of famous regulars.

Ninja Air Fryer 4-in-1 Pro
$89.99

I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They're easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They’re easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I like that you don’t have to fuss around with settings to get good food out of it. Vegetables turn out crisp without drying out, and chicken comes out juicy with a nice golden crust. It’s one of those kitchen gadgets that actually lives up to the hype and ends up being used all the time.

Ninja NC301 CREAMi Ice Cream Maker
$199.95

The Ninja CREAMi is hands down the best ice cream maker I’ve tried. What I really like is the texture. The ice cream comes out so smooth and creamy, better than anything I’ve managed with other machines. It’s also incredibly easy to use: you prep your base, freeze it overnight, and then let the CREAMi do the rest. With several one-touch programs, you can make ice cream, sorbet, gelato, milkshakes, or even smoothie bowls, and the re-spin function lets you make your batch softer if you prefer. You can go all in with decadent gelato, or make lighter, low-sugar or dairy-free versions. You can even add your favorite mix-ins like chocolate, nuts, or fruit to make it your own. It’s a fun, reliable machine that makes experimenting with flavors at home so much more exciting.
