i wanted to share my first attempt at doing a stamping mani that i actually intended to wear out. i used Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Purple Haste as my base color and used a Konad stamping plate with Konad White. i've played with using some China Glaze polishes, and i wasn't happy with the way they came out! i like using Konad polishes... i get that feeling of using the right tool for the job. i'm happy with the way this mani turned out, i love the purple and white together. i did smudge my middle finger stamp a bit, but this is one of those things where practice really helps! definitely, the more you do it, the easier it gets :D
Konad White dries dull and seems like it would pick off easily, so you definitely want a topcoat. i used my trusty Seche Vite!
we're already halfway through the week, i hope it's going well for everyone! Ria :)
it looks great!! was it hard to do it on the sides of the nails, like when you curve around the nail? I've always wondered, if you have to move it over the curve to hit the sides or if it all works out.
ReplyDeletethank you :D it's actually easy to do that, you just roll the stamper over your nail. the rubber stampy part is curved and squishy!
Deletevery nice!
ReplyDeletethank you so much!!
DeleteYou did an awesome job!! Isn't stamping so much fun? It gives you so many new options when doing your nails that you didn't have before!
ReplyDeletethank you!! i love it, because i'm quite tragic at free handing... and even my dotting is pretty awful :D
DeleteYou did awesome! Looks beautiful! I love stamping it looks so crisp and neat and is so much easier than freehand!
ReplyDeletethank you so much, i really appreciate it :D
