Will show you guys soon which ones I'm getting , so excited ! And it's Wednesday, been a quiet start to my week, but back at work today and working full steam ahead ! Today I'm showing you another great nail polish from Seche .. This one is called Iconic. It's a lovely deep burgundy/ red shade with the most subtle gorgeous sparkle . I just LOVE red nail polishes like these.

Flower Inspired Mani ♥

Hi guys ! Hope everyone had a awesome weekend ! I did ! My little guy loved the circus so much. Only down side was, it was too windy for the hot air balloon ride, so we had to reschedule. :( And my little guy is a little sick, what a terrible way to start the week. Today I'm showing you guys the Flower Inspired Mani I did for Tip Top's I luv Nails campaign a few weeks back . To be honest, I'm not a big fan of doing flower nail art.. But this didn't turn out too badly. I just googled a bunch of ideas, and decided to throw them all together, and the end results was actually pretty neat. As always I used one of my favourite Tip Top colours, Fairy Dust, as the base colour for this design - And lastly the colours I used ... So what do you guys think ? Do you like flower nail art ?

Halloween Edition 2012 - SPIDERS ♥

Hi guys ! Sjoe, it's freezing here in JHB ! Almost feels like winter ♥ Today I will be showing you guys my last Halloween inspired mani , I wanted to showcase another one tomorrow, but been so hectic busy I won't be able to fit in another Halloween mani. I will however, showcase the Avon Colour Trend Nail polish range tomorrow ♥ For today's mani, I used Tip Top Grape to meet you (Purple ), and Tip Top Peach Crisp, and used the Smart Nail Templates for little spiders. Aren't they cute ?? I love these two colours together ! So what do you guys think of this mani ? I love how the orange just pops next to the purple ! Looks really cool !

Halloween Edition 2012 - Pink Polka Dot Pirate

Hi guys ! Happy Halloween for everyone that is celebrating today ♥ Today I'm showing you my NOTD (nail of the day ) , I did especially for my Pink Polka Dot Pirate outfit I'm wearing. This mani is so girly ♥ I used Revlon Fuchsia Fever as my base colour, and dotted with Tip Top Fairy Dust . For the accent nail, I used Tip Top - Grape to meet you, and Avon Matte for the skulls. I used the smart nail templates for the skulls, as I suck at drawing them. ♥ So let me share my Halloween mani with you guys. Again, this is more cute than scary - And since I got a few emails asking if I ever painted my right hands nails too, introducing my ever so shy right hand .. Hee hee hee  I have to say, this one is my favourite Halloween one so far, I will be doing two more Halloween inspired mani's tomorrow and Friday too. ♥ What are your thoughts on this mani ?

Halloween Edition 2012- I want my MUMMY !

Hi guys ! Hope everyone is having a nice day so far.. My day has gotten off to a rough start, my little guy woke up very sick this morning, but luckily he looks better now. So today I'm showing you my mummy inspired mani. Again, I like to make them cute mummies , and not scary ones. ♥ I started off by painting all my nails with Tip Top French Manicure White (the best white nail polish EVER !! ), then sponged some flesh coloured nail polish (Tip Top Meringue Surprise), and then used Black to draw the mummy parts. :) I like the outcome on this one too. Here is the inspiration from Nail Polish Wars I used for my version . Some Mummy Like you !  Hope you guys like this mummy mani as much as I do ! Was really fun to create. Tomorrow I will show some pink girly skulls nails, as I will be dressed as a girly pirate tomorrow. ♥
