Andrea Horan
Nail Art has really taken off in the last few years, this is in part thanks to the fabulous Nail Bar Tropical Popical.
Tropical Popical has always been a firm favourite with Dubs but thanks to Saoirse Ronan mentioning it on the Ellen show a couple of years ago, their reach went far wider.
Their reach is getting bigger again as Tropical Popical CEO Andrea Horan has once again thought outside of the box and has teamed up with the National Gallery of Ireland to launch the Renailssance exhibition.
Andrea joined Sarina on Saturday’s Plan B to share how she has taken nail art from her nail bar to the National Gallery of Ireland.
She also revealed that curating an exhibition in the National Gallery was always a dream of hers but she didn’t know how it would happen. Vision, hard work and people willing to take a chance has turned the dream into a reality.
With the success of Tropical Popical, many have wondered why Andrea doesn’t open a chain of nail bars across the country – she would make a fortune!
However, money doesn’t motivate Andrea. It is a necessity but putting out positive vibes, and doing what she is passionate about does.
