Hello Everyone!!!
I never post any material that is NOT related to nail art, nail or polishes. But today I cant help but share some of my recent crazy obsession with you all. So this is gonna be my very first notanailrelatedtopic (I hope that okay !) I was quite in dilemma if I should post or not but than I thought "What the hell" So Here I go!

I went shopping with my kiddo (little sister) last week. We actually went for a hunt of some nice warm Hoodies or Sweat shirt (weather getting colder everyday) but alas I really couldn't find any sweatshirt at all and hoodies were similar to what I already owe. After roaming for about 2 hours we finally decided to gave up and was about to head back home when I suggested my kiddo to visit the mall that was on the way. Obviously we couldn't find what we were searching for but I did find some cute little EAR TOPS that blew my mind away :D Hell Yeah this is crazy EAR TOPS HAUL

There were so many cute little stuff around but I chose three ear tops that I couldn't help but buy. Generally I dont wear ear tops. The only obsession I have is of Finger rings. I was hoping to get some mid ring but everyone of them was big for me (way too oversized) When I saw these tops I knew I have to buy or I will regret it later.

I was minding my own business and trying some mid rings when my eyes fell on this cute owls. It distracted me completely. I didnt even gave a second thought. I brought it in a second. This owl top is chic and elegant plus cute. All the Rhinestone makes it pretty Cool! It cost me 85 bucks.

Second one is Mustache Ear tops. Its MOVEMBER people how can I NOT buy it. Beside it was kind of in my bucket list to owe at least one item that has mustache that I will adore rest of my life. One of my wish is fulfilled( ~~Bucket list 77- Buy anything related with owl~~ - Completed!!!! LOL) I didn't wanted to wear it as a pair so I just brought one piece (Punk Style!) It cost me 100 bucks.

Lastly The SKULL!!! You know I am sucker for skull. I am crazy about it. So you can guess what must have happen to me when I saw this pair of beauty. I Literally screamed "This is bloody beautiful" I was in cloud 9. First I thought it might be heavy and difficult to wear but it wasn't. I brought it and wore it on the spot. It cost me 85 bucks. ( I finally have a skull ear tops. Lucky Me!)

Well I hope you enjoyed my notanailrelatedtopic. I will be back with a nail art soon. May be mustache nail art? Have a great day. I will see you soon. Thank You for visiting

Until Then....

Hello Everyone!!!

If you are following me in Twitter you must know I finally made tutorials for the Bokeh Circles that I made for one of my BCA Mani. As I got few request on how to make those Translucent Circles I decided to keep my procrastination on the bay and made it. Like I always say If you want tutorials for any of my design all you need to do is just ask. I will be more than happy to make them.

Things You NeedA base Color- White (Hello Kitty Collection)
Acrylic Paint
Ear Buds
A plastic Container
Top Coat

Step 1:

Paint your nails with the base color. I chose white as it would be a better canvas to show the Translucent Circles.

Step 2:

Take your plastic container and add a small amount /drop of acrylic paint. Add some water and mix it properly. I think the most difficult part to make this circles is to have proper consistency of paint and water. Diluting the paint and water is very important step to make this technique to work. While you are making this mixture the base color will get enough time to get dry.

Step 3:

Dip one side of a ear bud on the mixture you just made and place a large spot/drop anywhere on your nails.

Step 4:

Give this spot /drop about 10 to 15 seconds to dry. Then use the next side of ear bud to soak up the middle of the spot. Try to keep the circle outline for the best result. Change the ear bud if it stops soaking. This is another important step.

There you have your Translucent Bokeh Circle.

Step 5:

Once you get hold of this technique you can place the spot randomly on your nails and repeat Step 4. Remember you can overlap the circles for more interesting design. After you are satisfied with the placement of circles add a top coat for a beautiful shine and to protect those circles.

Finish Product

Thats it!! if you got any excess polish on your fingers you can remove that with nail polish remover. If you try out these Bokeh Circle nails I would love to see your recreation.
