Final Stamping Month Update & Upcoming Blogs!

It pains me to inform you that I am out of the stamping challenge for this month as my nails started breaking at the quick and I was forced to file down to the nubbiest of nubbins. However I am planning a challenge for October and will participate in that one whether my nubs are nubby or not. Hopefully a couple of weeks will be enough time for them to grow out so I can make them look at least half decent. It happens to all of us. :(

So this means that instead of daily nails, I'll be working on some other reviews instead. 

Stay tuned! I have lots of exciting things in store even if it's not my nails.

And as a last update, this was Day 12 of Stamping Month - Bugs

Setepmber is Stamping Month Update!

Stamping month update number two! This stamping guide has proven to be a little challenging. I only have two large plates and a handful of small circular ones so I have only a select number of images to work with. I've had to get creative and make up some of my own themes for a few of the days. Here's my update to today and for daily updates along with swatches and random mani attempts please follow me on Instagram here!

Day 7 - Hearts

Day 8 - Dragons

Day 9 - Fish.

I didn't like my first attempt at underwater creatures, so I went for a new theme. Travelling with a view.

Cadillacquer Crystal with Mundo De Unas #16 stamping.

Day 10 - Trees

I went with a beachy theme using Girly Bits #islandtime as a base with Mundo De Unas #6 stamping

Day 11 - Books

Today is supposed to be a book theme. I don't have any book stamps, so instead I decided to tell a story with my stamps.

A handsome Prince Charming, an adoring Princess, they fall in love, and live happily ever after in their castle. (So cheesy.)

This is Lilypad Lacquer Vixens Wear Violet with Mundo De Unas #1 stamping.

August is Indie Month Day 23!

Day 23 of Indie Month, I can't believe it's almost over! Don't worry though, we have another monthly challenge on the way.

For today I'd like to present you with the absolutely *gorgeous* Lilypad Lacquer Vixens Wear Violet. I absolutely love this polish. It's one of those *_* holos that is entirely distracting and keeps you staring at your nails and flashing a light on them for the entire time you're wearing it.

I've worn this one a couple of times before and got good wear out of it. I change my nails every 3 or 4 days so it lasted about that long with no major chipping or other issues. The application is perfect every time. 

This is two coats, no top coat. If you don't have this polish, you should!

Another Chiclet Mani - Soft Blue/Blurples!

Boredom and a desire to use more of my polishes has inspired a new chiclet mani. I apologize for the poor little broken nubbin that made it into some of the photos as well as the unfortunate cuticle situation right now, working on it! :(

Gorgeous colors! These are all two coats, no top coat yet applied. Look at that holo on Rezipped! All of them applied well, a little bit of trouble with Rezipped being thick but with two coats it was fine.
