Purple Doodle Stamped Nail Art

Purchased Myself Contains Press Sample

Hello readers,
When I was swatching the Zoya Whispers collection I hypothesized that the Eastyn's pigmented formula would make it a good stamping polish.  I decided to test that theory out in this mani.  I started out with a base of Zoya Dannii.  Then I used Moyou London doodles collection plate 03 and Zoya Eatsyn to stamp on the design.  A coat of Girly Bits Glitter Glaze sealed everything up.  Photos were taken in daylight spectrum lighting.

Black and Nude Lace Nail Stamping

Purchased Myself Contains Press Sample

Hello readers,
I'm in the midst of swatching the Zoya Whispers collection (coming soon to a blog near you!) but I thought I'd share some nail art I did with one of the shades first.  I used Zoya April, a rosy toned nude, as my base.  Then I used China Glaze Liquid Leather and Moyou Bridal Collection Plate 07 to stamp on the lacey design.  I dabbed a little Julep Estell on the center of the lace design to add some subtle sparkle and finally sealed everything up with one coat of Girly Bits Glitter Glaze.  Photos were taken in daylight spectrum lighting.

OPI Starlight Floral Stamped Nail Art

Contains Press Sample Purchased Myself

Hello readers,
Today I have some stamped nail art I did recently with two shades from the OPI Starlight collection.  I started out with a base of I'm In The Moon To Love and then stamped on a floral design using Press * For Silver and Moyou London Pro collection plate XL 06.  Despite having 'silver' in the name, Press * For Silver looks more like a rose gold.  Whatever you want to call it, it made a great stamping polish.  Finally, I sealed everything up with a coat of CND Super Shiney top coat.  Photos were taken in daylight spectrum lighting.

Jelly Gradient With Paisley Stamping

Purchased Myself

Hello readers,

Today I have a mix of nail art techniques to show you. I started out with a base of Model City Polish Fritillaria, a soft flecked peach orange. Then I built up a jelly gradient using Nfu Oh JS26. It looked more purple in the bottle but ended up looking more fuchsia on the nail with the hint of orange showing through. I only used the brush to apply the jelly polish, starting at the tips and then slowly working my way down with each extra coat. Finally I used Moyou London Fashionista Collection plate 11 and China Glaze Liquid Leather to stamp on a paisley-esque design. Finally, I sealed everything up with a coat of HK Girl top coat. Photos show this mani in daylight spectrum lighting.

Happy polishing,

Michelle

Happy polishing,
