Nudey Spots With Pink Sparkle

Hiya, happy first day of June! Can you believe we are half way through the year already? No, me neither. It's scary how much quicker time goes when you get older! Today I have my second attempt at using my Bundle Monster stamping plates. As you can see I also added some rhinestones to the mix which is very exciting as I've never used them before either. I know, I know, sad huh?

So to start with I Painted my nails with two coats of Essie's Sand Tropez. I'm an idiot and forgot to take pictures of the Sand Tropez before I stamped, whoopsy daisy, sorry. I really like it so I'm sure I'll be wearing it again soon. But anyways, I then added a generous layer of my usual Sally Hansen Maximum Growth Plus. I'd heard from various people on Youtube that if you add a good amount of topcoat between your colour and stamping, if you make a mistake you can just remove the stamping polish without disturbing the colour underneath.

So I began to stamp, and to my joy it actually seemed a little easier this time. I nearly did a little happy dance, and I may have done if I hadn't of had my nail stuff on a lap tray... I think I'm starting to feel more comfortable with the rolling action, it just feels a little easier.

After the stamping I then got the pale pink rhinestones out of their wheel. I decided to use some tweezers and top coat to add apply these little beauties. I literally dabbed a little of the topcoat on to the flat side of the stone and carefully placed three of them in a line. They are a little fiddly to pick up but I found it got easier the more I did it.

I then added another layer of topcoat to finish off the mani. So there you go, that concludes my second attempt at stamping. I think it does look a little better and as I've already said it seemed a little easier, so if you struggled on your first attempt, get those stamping plates out again!

Thanks allot for reading my post, I hope you enjoyed it. Take care all, byeeeeeeeeeee x :-)
