Kicking off my hand-modeling career with a manicure spread in Oct's Cosmopolitan! #ikid - about the hand modeling.
So much thanks to Liz, Candice and Clare the Cosmo ladies, Melissa the makeup artist & manicurist behind my ultra beautiful nails, Brandon the model, and Caleb and Gladys the photographers, for being nothing short of sweet and patient with me (and my curly-wurly fingers)!
Haha, to be honest, it was helluva awkward for the most part. Posing for the photos was nowhere as sexy as the end results. There were a lot of standing on stacks of magazines (because Brandon is so much taller than me), kneeling, ducking my head & hiding my face so that it won't be in frame etc., and in just that day alone, Melissa had to put on and remove 5-6 sets of acrylic nails for me. Yes, my nail beds were hurting pretty bad by the time she pried the 5th set off my fingers (I'm sure everyone at the studio can vouch that I was wincing away!), so she decided that I should just go home with the last.

What I thought would be one of my life's biggest challenge (I'm sorry I'm such a prude) turned out to be a whole load of fun. Seriously though, I don't think my hands have ever looked so good.
