New Stamping Plate M73

I would just like to say that my mom is also amazing. :)  She got me this awesome Konad plate, M73!  It is the one with musical notes on it and I am super excited to have this one now, because I have been dreaming about doing a Phantom of the Opera mani, and I am just so excited. :)

Here is the plate:




Here is my first time using the plate, How awesome is this? These are my sisters nails, because I wanted to use the new plate, and didn't want to take off my current polish, so she let me do it on hers. :)

I absolutely love this stamping plate, I don't think I can say that enough.

I used 2 coats of Sinful Colors Snow me White, and stamped on Wet N Wild Black Creme.  Then of course topped it off with Seche Vite.



LOVE IT!

The perfect White and Black

I found my perfect white and black. 

My perfect black is Wet N Wild Ebony Hates Chris which I have used as a base in many of my nail tutorials. It coats in one perfect coat. I absolutely love it. I don't think I have stated how much I love it before, but it is my go-to black. I didn't use it in this post though, I just wanted to share that it is my favorite black.

My new favorite white is a white that I picked up on clearance at Rite Aid for 99 cents and it has not let me down.  My new favorite white, and also the white I have for you in todays Mani is Sinful Colors Snow Me White.  It covers perfectly in two coats(although I need to buff my ridges out. Its that time again lol)

I have found an amazing black to stamp with, Wet N Wild Black Creme.  I had read on a few other blogs that it was good for stamping, and I wanted to try it out myself.  I used an intricate lace stamp design, which I wasn't able to pick up with other colors, to see if this black really was the real deal, and lo and behold IT IS.  Who knew that you didn't have buy an expensive black polish to stamp with when Black Creme is only 99 cents and is amazing?

I will go ahead and show you this really cool mani. Hope you enjoy!

So in this mani I used Sinful Colors Snow me White and Wet N Wild Black Creme as the stamp, with a stamping plate that I got from the set at Rite Aid.

What are you favorite white and black polishes?

Christmas Argyle Print

Sooo I was in the Christmas mood yesterday, and I was excited to get my new Red Angel Plates, but I won't receive them until next week, so I used a stamp that I got in my set from Rite Aid.

I used an argyle print stamping plate, China Glaze Vertical Rush as the red base and Color Club Perfect Mol-Ten as the stamping polish.  I have found that the Color Club foils are the absolute best for stamping.

Sephora 212 by Sephora by OPI

Sorry I have been gone for so long! I got out of school and came home, and have been resting.

Today I have Sephora 212 by Sephora by OPI.  When I first heard of this polish I didn't think I needed it because I already had Orly Foul Play.  But they are very different and I'm glad I own both.  The only real similarity is that they both contain flakies.   Here are a few swatches of 212 to show the difference.

Here are the Orly Swatches:  http://caitlinscreativecorner.blogspot.com/2011/10/orly-foul-play.html

Quick Post: I have the best sister ever.

I have a quick post right now, and it is to state the fact that I have the best sister ever.  She won this polish for me in an auction online bidding all her points, because she knew that I liked the pumpkin polishes so much. How sweet!

It is a pink glittery black light polish.

So just to state this again and so everyone is clear, I have the best sister ever!  :)



(I have OPI DS Reflection on my nails, and I will be doing a post on it soon. :)
