Golden hour, kept at the fingertips. Savanna Halo crafts the leopard not as print but as crescent — rosettes hand-spotted along the free edge like the horizon of a warm country — and sets citrine-gold crystals where the sun would flare. Beneath, bare nude keeps the whole hand at blood temperature.

Hand-crafted

Cruelty-free
Designed to wear
again & again

Each set of ten is composed as a single gesture across the hand:

  • Leopard Crescent — four tips · Rosettes hand-spotted in two inks, sand then umber, the torn edge kept in
  • Citrine Flare — two tips · Gold-toned crystals set sparsely at the crest, where a low sun crosses fur
  • Savanna Nude — four tips · Bare nude warmed two degrees past neutral, holding the whole hand at blood temperature

Sculpted from premium soft-gel resin — light on the nail, resilient at the edge — and finished with a triple-milled, high-gloss gel top coat cured in three passes for a lacquered, glass-like depth. Pigments and coatings are cruelty-free; metallic accents, leaf and ornament are applied entirely by hand and sealed beneath the final coat.

  • 10 hand-crafted tips, arranged by finger in a crystal presentation case
  • 10 sheets of jelly gel adhesive tabs
  • Manicure stick & nail file

Detail of the Savanna Halo set

The Story

The leopard,
taken seriously

Animal print fails when it forgets it was ever an animal. So the artisans began at the source: photographs of real rosettes, which are never round, never evenly spaced, and always slightly torn at one edge — the record of a body moving underneath. Each spot on Savanna Halo is built in two inks, sand then umber, with that tear kept in.

Confining the pattern to a crescent was the second decision, and the more important one. Full-cover leopard is costume; a crescent is punctuation. The citrine crystals are set sparsely at the crescent’s crest — the flare a low sun makes when it crosses fur — and the nude beneath is warmed two degrees past neutral, because the savanna is never grey.

Wear the animal lightly and it reads as instinct, not costume.

The Craft

Two inks
to every rosette

Sand, then umber, with the torn edge kept in — spots that remember the animal. Crystals flare the crest; warm nude holds the ground.

Returns & Exchanges

We would rather you love your set than keep it out of politeness.

  • 30-day returns — items must be unused, unopened, and in their original packaging
  • Exchanges — unused items in their original condition may be exchanged within 30 days, subject to availability
  • Refunds — issued to the original payment method within 7–10 business days after the returned item is received; shipping fees are non-refundable
  • Damaged, defective, or incorrect? — notify us within 7 days with photos for a free replacement or full refund

To begin a return, email Support@manikira.com with your order number and reason for return. Once approved, return instructions and a shipping label will be provided.

Used or damaged items, custom or personalized nails, and gift cards are non-returnable. Customers cover exchange return shipping unless the item was defective or incorrect.

With the brush-on adhesive and careful preparation, each application can last up to fourteen days. With fresh jelly gel tabs, each application typically lasts three to five days. After gentle removal, clean away any adhesive residue and return Savanna Halo to its coffret — the set is designed to be worn again and again. The protective gel top coat helps preserve the hand-crafted finish between wears.

Measure the widest point of your thumbnail in millimetres — choose S for 8–15 mm, M for 10–17 mm, or L for 12–21 mm. Between two sizes, choose the smaller. The Sizing guide beside the size selector shows this as a chart. If your measurement falls outside these ranges, contact Client Care before ordering. Because exchanges require items to remain unused and in their original condition, please confirm your measurements before opening the set.

Yes. The soft-gel resin used for Savanna Halo files beautifully. Shape the free edge with the nail file in one direction only, before application. We suggest leaving the cuticle edge untouched, as it is contoured to sit flush against the skin.

When applied and removed as directed, the tabs and glue used with Savanna Halo should not damage your natural nails. Soak, ease from the side and never pry; careful application and gentle removal help protect the natural nail surface, wear after wear.

Because it should. Every Savanna Halo set is crafted by hand by a single artisan — the drift of the pigment, the depth of the glaze and the placement of each crafted detail are unique to your coffret. The photographs show one interpretation; yours is another. This is the nature, and the point, of the work.

Savanna Halo is carefully packed to arrive in pristine condition. Physical items may be exchanged within 30 days only when unused and in their original condition; gift cards are non-returnable.

The pigments and coatings used for Savanna Halo are cruelty-free. For full material information, contact Client Care.
