Mani Against Woman & Child Abuse

Hi guys ! Hope everyone had an okay week. Mine was hectic, and was incredibly busy week too. I feel like a zombie in need of coffee. So REALLY glad it's weekend ! Today's mani is especially for Tip Top South Africa Facebook page challenge. The theme this week was a special black Friday mani in support against woman and child abuse. Sadly, this is something that's a universal problem, and you might even know someone who was abused somewhere down the line. I had a very dear friend get beaten really badly by an ex boyfriend a few years back, it's such a scary thought that it could happen to someone you know. So this mani is especially a dedication to that dear friend of mine♥ For this challenge, you had to have 4 Black nails ( Tip Top Black Forest ) and a White accent nail ( Tip Top French Manicure White ) with a special design on your accent nail. For my design I chose to do a heart with crackle polish( Tip Top Black Crackle Polish ), so it looks cracked and a littl...

China Glaze : Black Mesh

Hi guys ! Whoohoo, it's finally Friday ! I'm still down with the flu, hoping to feel a lot better tomorrow, feeling like the walking dead at this stage still, and have a very busy weekend planned . Today I'm showing you guys another crackle polish, this one is the black crackle from the China Glaze Range. Firstly, I have to say - I L♥VE China Glaze's crackle. It doesn't get gloopy quickly, and I like how it goes down smooth onto the nail . And I just LOVE the uniqueness in every nail crack. :) I used one THIN coat of China Glaze black mesh over Tip Top Rosebud Cherry, but you can use a thicker coat if you want the bigger cracks. I have to say, China Glaze knows how to make a fantastic crackle nail polish ♥. I love the Black Mesh especially, since you can use it with ANY colour and get fantastic results. Hope everyone will be having a fun weekend !

China Glaze : Haute Metal

Hi guys. Wednesday already, been a hectic busy week again so far ! Can't wait for the weekend . Today I'm showing you guys one of the China Glaze crackles - This one is from the China Glaze Metallic Collection. Tip Top also has 4 Crackle polishes, but I prefer the China Glaze ones.  They have 3 crackle collections, and a variety of different colours . China Glaze  has glitter ones, normal ones and then the metallic ones. Today I'm showing you the pale pink one from the collection - Haute Metal. Firstly, why I prefer these, they don't go all gloopy and hard so fast. I bought my one in March, and its still the same texture as when I bought it. I also like that it's smoother after applying. You'll hardly now your nails got crackle on... I used Inner Beauty as the base colour, next time I'll try a darker one, so the crackle stand out a little more... Personally, I love this combo, its not too in your face , but you can still see the prett...
