A while back I was send the most awesome 3D nail Jewels from a local company here called  NailCandi  that stocks the most gorgeous and unique nail jewels. One of the sets I was send was this Pegasus nail jewels, and I decided to pair them with some rainbows since they look so close to a unicorn .. And let's be honest who doesn't love rainbows and unicorns ? So onto the actual nail jewel. Yes.. This isn't the most practical everyday nail art idea.. But for something fun and unique.. YES ! They are perfect statement pieces. I placed mine securely on the nail with Seche Vite, but you can use nail glue too. (For a more secure hold.. Although with Seche Vite topcoat.. The Pegasus stayed in place until I took it off. Removal : I used a cotton bud dipped in polish remover and gently started on the corners of the Pegasus until the polish there dissolve...

Autumn Inspired Mani

Hi guys ! Can you believe its Wednesday already ? This week has flown by super fast.  Since Autumn has officially started in South Africa now, I think it was only fitting to make a fun autumn inspired mani , since it's my favourite season. I used the zip lock bag nail art method as I showed  HERE  to make some autumn coloured inspired colour blocks, and used a leaf scrapbook stamp to stamp out some cute little leaves.  The colours I used were all Tip Top colours. My base colour was Tip Top Nail Addict Coffee Bean, and the leaves were the following colours : Top Nail Addict Deadly Salmon Tip Top Nail Addict Smitten Tip Top Super Trooper Tip Top Gold Digger Tip Top Traffic Lights Tip Top Hot Fudge Tip Top Adrenalin Junkie So onto the mani - I really love the little leaves on my nails. :) I love wearing some more darker colours in autumn and winter on my nails , so looking forward to showing you guys tons of fun new polishes for the sea...

Tip Top Nail Addict : Coffee Bean

Hi guys ! Hope everyone had a fantastic week so far.. Mine has been super busy , and this weekend is another busy one too . Today I'm showing you another colour of the Tip Top Nail Addict Range that is exclusive to Foshini stores. This colour is called Coffee Bean . The name alone sold me - I'm a BIG fan of coffee... Can't live without it. ♥ Tip Top Nail Addict Coffee Bean is a rich brown with the most gorgeous fine gold-ish brown glittery shine to it. As any Tip Top polishes it went on like butter and took two easy coats to be opaque. Seriously... Tip Top is always impressive and their polishes never lets you down.
