LOLLIPOP NAIL STUDIO EXPANDS SERVICES + OPENS LARGER SPACE AT THE CAMP
WHERE
ORGANIC AND GLOSSY MEET
The New Studio
Offers Organic + Healthy Mani-Pedi’s, Eco-Friendly Polishes, Scrubs, Soaks + More
Costa Mesa, CA – Lollipop Nail Studio, a chic, organic nail studio that is dedicated to natural, organic products and services, is proud to announce its new Orange County location at the CAMP.
Tripling its space from the original store, Lollipop is not only
growing to accommodate more Orange County women, men and children seeking its
signature, organic manicures and pedicures but also adding to its services
thanks to the movement towards non-toxic beauty treatments. From nourishing,
water-based nail polish to lotions, scrubs and soaks made in-house of only the
freshest organic ingredients, Lollipop strives to make getting a mani-pedi as
safe, luxurious and enjoyable as possible.
With mid-century lounge treatment chairs embroidered with the
Lollipop logo and a vintage bamboo sofa where clients are offered treatments,
the large, bright space also features several large tables where classes and
parties can be accommodated. A vintage
candy display that now showcases Lollipop’s organic and natural recipe
ingredients, welcomes clients as does the smell of the four essential elements
used in the studio’s signature manicures and pedicures: almond, rose, camellia
and geranium.
Inspired by Jackie Dalton’s young daughter to offer a nail salon
free of chemicals, owners Jackie Dalton,
an FIDM alum and former designer and boutique owner, and Hope Allen, an actress, launched Lollipop Nail Studio in September 2012.
“We feel so blessed to have grown so much in a year,” says Dalton. “People are
just learning about all the nasties in nail polish and cosmetics and have
embraced our fresh mani/pedi experience. Our
clients are often surprised to see all of these gorgeous nail colors in
formulations that are much healthier for you.”
HEALTHIER
NAIL POLISH: Offering nourishing nail polish that is safe for your skin in a
wide variety of shades and colors, the treatments are safe for adults and kids alike.
Lollipop has grown its offerings of non-toxic nail polish that are free of
Toluene, DBP, formaldehyde and camphor, including:
·
SpaRitual, which is a vegan, 5-free line of polish that has
great lasting power and incredible, saturated colors.
·
Hopscotch Kids, a line of non-toxic
water-based polish for kids and kids at heart, which is safe for little fingers
and has a really quick drying time for children since they usually can't sit
still very long. They’ve got great, bright colors that kids really love.
·
Scotch, another line offered at Lollipop, is also water-based
and has a more sophisticated range of colors.
·
Zoya polishes have also gotten a great response from the
customer looking for healthier nail polish.
NEW ORGANIC
APOTHACARY PRODUCTS + CLASSES: Striving to ensure a teaching environment, educating clients on
healthier beauty options, Lollipop will also soon offer classes on how to make
your own scrubs and oils. Also, Lollipop’s artful apothecary, where signature
products are mixed to match treatments and needs, is the inspiration behind a
soon-to-be launched product line using the finest quality organic ingredients.
PARTIES: Lollipop’s loyal clientele frequently hosts parties at the studio. Now with the new location, larger groups who want to use the studio as a gathering space to host events and parties, including bridal, birthday, fashion and charity, can be accommodated.
SIGNATURE LOLLIPOP NAIL STUDIO MANICURES AND PEDICURES: For each service, Lollipop sterilizes all stainless steel tools, and uses only brand-new files, sticks and buffers, as well as new liners for each pedicure. Manicures are waterless, performed with hot towels and custom-created oils.
Prices start at $25 for an adult manicure, $35 for an adult pedicure; $15 for a child manicure and $15 for a child pedicure.
HOURS AND
LOCATION: Lollipop Nail Studio is now open Monday-Saturday 10:30 am to 7 pm;

Rookie Defensive Phenomenon, Kiko Alonso, Signs With Cutters Gloves
ROOKIE DEFENSIVE PHENOMENON KIKO ALONSO
SIGNS WITH CUTTERS GLOVES
MINETONKA, Minn. -- Cutters Gloves is proud to announce that it has added NFL defensive rookie sensation, Kiko Alonso of the Buffalo Bills, to its roster of professional endorsees. The middle linebacker from the University of Oregon signed a three-year deal with Cutters, where he will join a star-studded list of professional football and baseball players who turn to Cutters Gloves for the ultimate in performance, grip and durability.
Cutters is turning heads across all professional and amateur sports with recent innovations in its proprietary C-TACK™ Performance Grip material. The company announced that a new line of game changing football gloves, to include the REV and REV PRO, will hit retail stores in March of 2014. Professional players from the NFL were part of the development and testing of the new line, and as word spread about their superior performance, players have been lining up to get their hands on--or more accurately, IN--the new gloves.
In just the eighth week of his rookie season, Kiko Alonso is second in the NFL in tackles having notched 81 to date, including a blistering performance against the Cincinnati Bengals in which he racked up 22 tackles, the second most tackles in a single game in NFL history. On top of that, Alonso has shown that he has great hands with his four interceptions, a number that ties for the NFL lead this season.
"Kiko Alonso is a very special and very rare talent," said Tony Armand, CEO of Shock Doctor Sports and Cutters Gloves. "He is a complete athlete who is unwavering in his dedication to his sport and to his team, and he is the epitome of integrity and fearless performance on and off the field."
Added Armand, "Kiko has a bright future as a professional athlete, and we at Cutters and Shock Doctor are thrilled to have him on our team."
Alonso currently wears the Cutters X40 gloves, and he will wear a custom version of the Cutters REV gloves for the 2014 season, designed in the color scheme of the Buffalo Bills. Consumer versions of the line will be in stores in March of 2014, just in time for Spring passing leagues and other training camps.
The all new REV line of lightweight gloves that will be worn by Alonso and other professional players are designed with advanced fit, flexibility, progressive levels of palm-conforming constructions, and the legendary C-TACK extreme grip technology that has made Cutters the industry leader in performance gloves. The line has models for players of all abilities, including the REV PRO 3D in adult sizes, and the REV PRO and the REV models that are available in both youth and adult sizes.
ABOUT KIKO ALONSO
Kiko Alonso attended the University of Oregon, where he played for the Oregon Ducks football team from 2008 to 2012. After redshirting in 2008, he spent the 2009 season as Oregon's primary reserve middle linebacker. He appeared in the final 12 games, accumulating 13 of his 16 tackles unassisted. Alonso was named the 2012 Rose Bowl Defensive Player of the Game with one interception and five tackles, including career-highs of 1.5 sacks and 2.5 tackles for loss. In his final season, he started in all 13 games and earned second team all-conference honors while recording 87 tackles, including 16 tackles for loss, a sack, four interceptions, seven pass deflections and two forced fumbles.
On April 26, 2013, Alonso was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the second round (46th overall) of the 2013 NFL Draft.
Alonso made an immediate impact for the Bills notching 9 tackles in his first NFL regular season game against the New England Patriots. The next week against the Carolina Panthers, Alonso had a total of 10 tackles, 1 interception, and a sack to lead the Bills to their first win of the season. With an interception against the New York Jets in week 3, Alonso became the first Bills player to record an interception in back to back games since Jairus Byrd in 2009.
On October 3, 2013, Alonso was named the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Month for the month of September.
In a Week 6 game vs. Cincinnati, Alonso had the biggest game of his young career, where he recorded 22 tackles. Although Buffalo lost in overtime, Alonso got nominated for NFL Rookie of the Week for the second time of his career.
