Now that I've got my stamping mojo sorted out (thanks, Messy Mansion stampers!), manicures like this one have become fun & relaxing for me to do. I never thought I'd see the day!
I started with a base of Zoya Rue, and then after applying OPI Peel-Able Base Coat to my cuticles, I sponged on a gradient of Rue, Zoya Odette, and Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Trouble Maker. Once that was dry, I stamped on the stitched pattern from MoYou London Fashionista Plate 02 in Zoya Purity.
The polishes I used for this gradient definitely look pink & purple in their bottles, but once I stamped over them, they took on a much more neutral tone. I still really like how this turned out, and I even think it could be some very work-friendly nail art!
Check out that detail! The right tools make all the difference.
Thanks for looking!
It looks gorgeous! Which stamper heads do you like best? I see Messy Mansion sells a lot of different ones ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you! :) I like the medium-soft and soft stamper heads best—they're so nice and squishy and they really hug the curve of your nail while stamping.
DeleteThey are gorgeous <3
