Mobile manicurist delivers the full experience DAWNMARIE FEHR

eeping up appearances can be hard during a pandemic when salons and beauty parlors have closed their doors in compliance with state and
country regulations. Antioch resident Jennifer Kreva would like to help keep at least your hands looking their best. Her business, Beautylicious by Jen, brings the salon experience right to the living room. “Basically, I’m a mobile nail spa,” said Kreva. “I offer service of gel manicures, dip powder nails and acrylic nails and I specialize in at-home spa parties.” Kreva said many of her clients will have small gatherings with the ladies in the family or close friends, and serve mimosas and brunch or margaritas and tacos. While the group chats and snacks, Kreva works her way through each participant, giving them the perfect manicure, accompanied by hot towels and aroma therapy massage. Kreva has been running her mobile nail spa for five years. She created her business after leaving a career in law enforcement because her husband – who is in the Navy – moves often. She said she has easily been able to establish clientele in every state she has lived in because her nail art sets her apart. see Manicurist page 13
