Bornprettystore rose stamping plate review!

BP-73

Hey y'all! Today on the blog I have a review of a round stamping plate from bornprettystore.com to share with you. As per usual with these round BPS plates - I was very happy with the quality of this plate. Along with the cohesiveness of the plate, the etching was deep on all of the images which means a clear image upon pickup! YAS! Let's jump right into the specifics of the plate, how my mani turned out, and where you can find this little guy!

The theme of this plate is ROSES! I was drawn to this plate because I feel like roses can be used in a multitude of different mani ideas, adding a classic and beautiful twist to your nails. This plate in particular is nice because it can be used just for the outline, for advanced stamping decals, or for lead lighting purposes. With such a versatile plate - the possibilities are endless, making this plate good for any stamping lover. 

I started out with a base of Lorelei Lacquer Hypnotic on my middle and pinkie, and Liquid Chrome by Shinespark Polish on my index and ring. Once my base was dry on the index and ring, I stamped the image from the top middle of the plate using M Polish Cayuga and my Creative Shop Stamper from whatsupnails to create the base for my rose lead lighting. Once my stamping outline was dry, I went back in with Shinespark Ballerina Bunny and Max Splash from the 90's Kids Collection to create the color on the petals on the roses. Once that was dry, I top coated with Seche Vite and that's it! 

I highly recommend this plate for anyone that enjoys that floral look in your manis - especially if you love making stamping decals. If you'd like to pick this plate up, you can find it HERE. Don't forget to use my code, PPPQ10 for 10% off your order of originally priced items!

Jamberry inspired!

Hey y'all!

Today on the blog I have this Jamberry inspired nail art to share with you. A group of nail friends and I partake in a weekly challenge and this mani was a product of a "recreate a Jamberry wrap" weekly challenge. I was really pleased with how they came out. I'm also playing around with hand poses so I am showing a new one in this post. 

Let me start with showing you what I used to create this mani:

Left to right (front): KBShimmer Clearly On Top, Qtica Natural Nail Growth Stimulator, NYC Tudor City Teal, Orly Steal The Spotlight, and Sally Hansen Xreme Wear Pep-Plum. (Back): Acrylic craft paints for the details

So I started out with the Qtica for my base coat as usual to protect my natural nail and then added a couple of coats of NYC Tudor City Teal to my index, middle, and ring fingers as a base color for the nail art. I added Orly Steal the Spotlight to my pinkie and thumb for some sparkly goodness. Once my base color was dry, I used white acrylic paint to make the dots, Sally Hansen Pep-Plum for the base of my roses, and light purple acrylic paint for the details of the roses. I went back with two different green acrylic paints for the leaves of the roses. Once it was all dry, I topped with KBShimmer Clearly On Top to seal everything in! 

Here's another shot of my mani with the wrap on the left to show my inspiration:

What do you think of this mani? Have you ever used Jamberry or recreated one of their wraps?
