Painted nails are entertaining because they spicy up dull fingers and can convince gullible keyboards that it's raining clown noses. Embellish tips for pulchritudinous pranks with today's Groupon: for $15, you get a Shellac manicure at Trade Secrets (a $35 value). This Groupon may be redeemed at the Heartland Town Centre location in Mississauga or Trinity Common location in Brampton.

Trade Secrets creates an indulgent atmosphere for fashioning new styles and rejuvenated spirits with a variety of specialty manicures. Over the course of a 45-minute Shellac manicure, a skilled nail technician files, shapes, and paints finger shields, then sets the polish under heat lamps to seal in shine and elicit nail-biting confessions. Shellac gel clings to digits for up to 14 days without chipping, nicking, or smudging. Patrons may select from a series of shiny colours to complement new outfits or new finger puppets.
