I have been lazy and haven’t used stamps in a while. I had a purple shirt so I decided to use a purple polish to match. I used the Sephora by OPI in Domestic Goddess. It was a little messy because the full nail plates are not big enough so I have to stamp multiple times to fill up the empty spaces. I still don’t know why they can’t make the images larger. There is room on the plate.

This one was from the ’10 holiday season. I’ve used it several times but haven’t had a chance to take pictures for the post. This is Sephora by OPI “Looks Like Rain, Dear” (don’t you like the puns?). Its a gold nail polish with very fine gold glitter and also has larger flakes that reflects all colors as you can see pictured in the bottle below. Most glitter nail polishes are mostly clear with just a little glitter, but this one is packed with glitter and has full coverage. With just two coats, you get a solid gold color, not a few specks of randomly scattered pieces of glitter. It reminds me of a glitter Christmas ornament. The only thing I don’t really like about it is that the finish is rough, as you get with glitter polishes, but a top coat helps fix that a bit. All in all, its a great fun polish.

Finally tried the Del Sol polish I received as a souvenier gift. Del Sol sells items that change color in the sun. The polish color is called Superhero. It is a light baby or sky blue with a pearl finish. And when in the sun, it changes to a light shade of purple. This is very good quality polish. Usually I get a chip the next day. It’s been 3 days and still looks good. I did not use any base or top coat. Here are some pics I took today.

It’s been a while since I have stamped my nails. I just got a new polish so I thought I’d try it out. The polish is china glaze in Avalanche. Its a shiny gray with a hint of purple. I used black polish for the stripes on the BM20 plate and Poshe for a top coat. The image is too small for my nails so it doesn’t fill the entire nail. You can’t really notice it on the smaller nails. I tried to center it. But on my thumb I had to stamp multiple times and line up the images which I always have a hard time with.

I bought the BundleMonster nail plates from Amazon. This is the first time I used them. They’re such a good deal. 21 plates for $17.99. They work just as well as the Konad plates for a lot less. The full nail images are smaller though, but there are six images on the plate instead of four.
What I used:
Plate: BM16
Polish: Sephora by OPI “How cute is that?”
Stamp: Konad White

A couple flowers in my garden bloomed yesterday, so I decided to use a flower stamp on my nails. Aren’t the flowers pretty?
The big white flower with the red center is a Kopper King Hibiscus. And the Pink flower is a Gladiolus.
On my nails I used…
Sally Hansen HD Laser. They had new colors on display, so I had to get a couple. Plus they were buy one get one 50% off. Can’t pass that up! I used blue Konad and plate m54 for the flower stamp.

I did my sister’s nails today. Sorry, it’s a little messy. Took the pictures before it was cleaned up. No hand eye coordination either… =) I got two new Savina nail polishes. I think they’re a good deal at 3.97 a piece. The bluish color is Morning Glory and the black is Midnight. The pictures without flash show the color more accurately, but you can see the nails better with flash.
I alternated between the Morning Glory and Midnight. I then used blue konad polish and stamped on top of the black nails.
The image used was on the Konad m69 plate. I don’t have black konad polish so I used the Savina polish to stamp the Morning Glory nails and I think it worked pretty well. Since it is dark, it shows up nicely.

I did my nails with a nice summer color. This is the first time I used this image on the m74 konad plate. Since this image looks like two separate ones, I only used the top half you see here.
This is what I used:
Revlon Tropical Temptation nail polish
m74 plate
white konad nail polish
Poshe top coat
I agree with the previous post that the images for the full nail stamps are too small. Even the Konad plates don’t go completely accross some of my nails? Anyone have any suggestions on what to do when it doesn’t fit the whole nail?
