Party Fauxnad

Posted by on Monday, March 21, 2011

I went to an aftershow party on Saturday, and so I felt some stamping was in order to spice up my nails. I haven't played around with my stamps for a while, so it was a nice experience. I need to work on layering them, I've seen people do incredible things with three or four different designs on one nail.

I stamped a white Allura French Manicure polish (very nice and opaque, ideal for stamping) over Nails Inc Queensgate Mews. I love this colour - it's probably one of my favourite Nails Inc colours. This stamps surprisingly well also, although it does lean purple. I used a Bundle Monster plate for designs.

To jazz it up even further, I added some glitter:

It's a Funky Fingers polish that I won in a giveaway hosted by the lovely ChaosButterfly over at The Phalanges Files. I sort of sponged it over using an Allura nail buffer which I will rant about in another post. Such a joke. Urgh.

Did you guys have a good weekend?

I'd quickly like to thank everyone that commented on the sponsored post and also on the post before that in which I asked your opinions on the topic - your kind replies are much appreciated!

  2. Thanks, JadeyLou!

    I'm still gtting the hang of them as well :P I haven't bought the special Konad ones, but I noticed Born Pretty sell a set of similar ones for a lot cheaper? I might pick those up at some point.

    I think there are some blogs that keep a list of polishes that are good for stamping, though I can't think of any off the top of my head. Sorry!
    Thanks for your comment :)
