April visit of Valentina Denisenko at the headquarters of „Paznokcie” magazine is behind us. It was last seminar and training with Valentina this year and shortly before her maternity leave. Nail star cooperates with our magazine for quite a while and has already conducted a few educational events. This time it was a presentation of trends for 2011 and a 2-day training of UV gel designs and a 2-day training of the 3rd level of acrylic paints which finished with a diploma „Platinum Brush”.

Sunday seminar gathered a great group of stylists from Poland and abroad who were willing to learn about the newest proposals of Valentina designs for 2011. She presented a variety of nail art created with gel, acrylic and acrylic paints. Among the designs there were  those of salon-style quick and easy as well as very artistic and labour-intensive. Everybody could find something to please their taste. During the seminar participants could purchase „Edge” magazine no. 2 by  Valentina Denisenko with her designs step-by-step as well as her signature brushes which she works with every day. All participants received diplomas of participation in Sunday seminar.

Ideal complement to the 2011 trends presentation was a short demo of nail colourization with EF exclusive and RaNails gel-polishes. Gel-polish manicure is the greatest hit in the nails world all around the world. The seminar ended up with a drawing of three rewards: start kit of EF exclusive gel-polishes, Valentina Denisenko’s magazine „Edge” and the nail art brush by Valentina.

Following 4 days of Valentina stay in „Paznokcie” magazine headquarters were dedicated to the intensive training for 18 professional stylists from Poland and abroad. Two first days were devoted to nail art with acrylic paints. It was already 3rd level of sophistication so the training was at very high level. The agenda was very full, thus any minute couldn’t be wasted and the participants were very focused on practising the designs presented by Valentina. They followed her advice and directions. The training ended up with certificates of „Platinum Brush” of Valentina Denisenko Styling School.

Next two days were dedicated to gel designs. It was the first training of this kind in Poland conducted by such a nail star. It turned out that incredibly beautiful designs can be created with gel under condition that you have possessed proper knowledge about it and undergone sufficient practice under thorough supervision of your teacher. Although the training was difficult and very demanding, participants left our headquarters with a sense of time spent in a valuable way, wiser, with new friendships and full of inspiration for future activities. As a token of gratefulness for Valentina’s engagement, warm atmosphere and training itself, she was given a beautiful gift that will surely reminds her of the moments spent in Poland.
