The metallic invasion.

Hello everybody!

How are you today? I am very happy to tell you that ,finally, my days are getting better, especially because I have the necessary time to write on my blog.

Today, I am going to talk to you about another 3 polishes I recieved from TipTop . As you already know, they sent me to review 5 polishes. You can see the first 2 HERE

I decided to make 2 different posts because the polishes are very different. The 2 pastels and 3 metallic ones.

I think that I've stated very clearly my opinion about TipTop nail polish in my first blog post. What I am going to add, is that in my eyes, TipTop nail polishes surpassed big companies. (there's no need to say more than that)

Since I firstly applied them on my nails , I knew they are great, because they covered the nail perfectly in one coat. I still use 2 coats because I think that's best ... but you don't "NEED" them.

The 3 nailpolishes I used today are :  (from left to right) ARMOURPLATE, GOLD DIGGER and my personal fav ASTRONAUT.



I like every one of them but the blue one is amazing.

I was never a big fan of metallic nail polishes, I just didn't knew what to do with them, but now I see them in a different light.

I think that a metallic nail polish can give that special "something" to a manicure.



I will start showing the designs I did in the order the nail polishes are in the pic above.

With this silver I decided to do something very simple but special manicure. I think you can use this nail polish for a night out with the girls and also at a wedding.
On the middle and ring finger I added another glitter from GoldenRose- Jollie Jewels.


This second mani I did on my mom's nails yesterday. I tried to do a non-even french mani. I really like the way it looks.

And last but not least(my fav) :

Isn't this colour GORGEOUS? I absolutely love it.( I think I am in love with this colour) .
This is also the first time I did a mani using stripping tape and i liked it a lot.
Unfortunatelly my nails broke since I did the mani...but I will use this polish constantly.


I think that these nail polishes are very good for doing galaxy nails. The first time I'll do a galaxy I'll use them and I will show you.

So. what do you think lovelies?
I would buy them ALL, and love them ...and LOVE them!
I hope everyone of you has the possibility to use them, because they are amazing.

The clowny nails with TIP-TOP

Hello sweeties!

How is your week until now? :) Mine keeps getting better and better: I am home, I have my babies(the nailpolishes), I am enjoying my vacation AND  the sun is finally up in the sky. (I think there were 2 weeks full of rain and no sun, and it was very depressing).

What am I going to talk about today is a brand I discovered recently, even if the company was founded in 1981. TipTopNails
They are located in Johannesburg, South Africa.
The company has a very strict philosophy behind producing and developing their nail polishes, making sure their products are described by 4 elements: Durability, Innovation, Toxin & Cruelty Free.
I am not an experted in Vegan nail polishes, but I know the components that are harmfull, TipTop  developing nail polish that is completely FREE of: Formaldehyde, Toluene, DBP (Dibuthyl Phthalate) and Camphor. 
One thing that makes me believe this, is the pleasant smell the nail polishes have. ( the smell is very important to me, because I have a very sensitive nose, and strong smells make be feel ill)

 What I recieved : 


They are 5 amazing colours(from left to right) : ARMOURPLATE(970), GOLD DIGGER(971), ASTRONAUT(967), CHA CHA CHA(980) and MELTING MARSHMALLOWS(903).
I like a lot all the colour, but I think I just found THE pink for me.

 You can see in the pic above, a quick swatch. What would you say: 1 or 2 coats? Be prepared to be amazed: ONLY ONE COAT. These are simply amazing. The formula is very very nice, it's very easy to apply because it's quite liquid and it also dries super fast. (If you are on a hurry but still want or need a gorgeous mani, you can choose one of these mani colours TipTop has to offer)

Today I will be showing you the last 2: CHA CHA CHA  and MELTING MARSHMALLOWS.
I love pastel nail polish because I think they are very good as base colours and also as a very suble and elegant manicure.

I did the design on my mother's nails, since she's been very eager to help.
As an inspiration I had this pattern :

I was always in love with clowns...not scared like many people are and I decided to do a "tribute" mani for them.
I hope you'll like my mani as much as I did. I think it's very fun to watch and wear.

 I wanted in a very long time to do this tipe of mani. Since this is sort of a french mani, and how I am a frech mani addict, I absolutely LOVE it.


The mani is "3 days old" and keeps standing: no chipping no nothing.(I also used the Farmec 3DGelTopcoat) 



This is my "clowny" nails I did using TipTop nail polish.
As a conclusion I can say that they are amazing: they are Vegan,they have great covarage in one coat, they dry fast, don't smell bad and they have a very gorgeous shimmer without any topcoat. What else could anyone wish from a nails polish?
I personally, love them, and I would recommend them to anyone.

Untill next time, I wish you a good week.
