2true - Soft Grey & NYC - Techno Foil Stamping

Hi all, Hope you're having a good Friday! Thank goodness the weekend is here!

Today I have another polish that I was sent to review from 2true for more on the company, and the other polishes I have reviewed click here. This post isn't really a review but a quick stamp/swatch.

For more colour accurate photos of Soft Grey, visit Lucy's Stash Here as I could not for the life of me get it to photograph without the green tone before stamping!

Soft grey is a medium grey creme that sometimes looks green to me, just not as green as my photo. Below is two coats that offered really great coverage, and I had no problems at all maneuvering the brush/formula, which lead me to basically no clean up whatsoever.

Base Coat: CND - Stickey

Base Colour:: 2true Fast Dry - Shade 13 Soft Grey

Stamping Colour: NYC - Techno Foil

Image Plate: Konad - M73

Top Coat: Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails

This is how the polish looks most of the time, and below is when my camera caught it looking very green.

I really love polishes that give you this kind of look in only two coats, so smooth, and as the name implies it dries really quick too.

*Product was sent for consideration of review*

Beth's Birthday Nails - We Stamp On Sundays

This week over at Adventures In Stamping the challenge was to create something inspired by/ for Crumpets daughter Beth's 9th birthday. So I decided to do purple glitter and stamp with a plate ending in 9. I automatically knew which purple I was going to wear, but I had no idea what to stamp over it. It's such an amazing polish but I can never capture how pretty it is. And because It's a glitter I never know how to stamp, so I settled on fishnet, in a purple chrome :]

Base Coat: Nail RX - Stuck On You
Base Colour: BYS - Voodoo Violet
Stamp Colour: NYC - Techno Foil
Image Plate: Bundle Monster BM209
Top Coat: Models Own - 3 In 1

You can kinda see the glitter more here, while majority of the micro glitter in this is silver, all the large pieces are holographic, and it's annoying that they choose not to shine on camera :P as this polish Is still one of my favourites, despite the gloopy formula.

And here's what I used:

So a Happy Birthday shout out to Beth! :] Hope you've had a good Birthday! & I hope everyone in the UK is having a super chilled looooong weekend ^-^

Using A Plate Ending In 4 - We Stamp On Sundays

This weeks challenge over at Adventures In Stamping was to use a plate ending in 4, I wasn't really feeling up to doing my nails when I did these; so they're a bit boring.

The base colour is a serious stunner though, OPI - Nevermore, which was sent to me as part of a swap from Iris over at Polish Amor. But more on that some time in the coming week ^_^

For this I used three different chrome polishes, a bright and pale pink, and lilac.

Base Coat: Nail RX - Stuck On You
Base Colour: OPI - Nevermore
Stamping Colours: NYC - Foil For You, Foil'er Up, Techno Foil
Image Plate: BM214
Top Coat: Models Own - 3 In 1

Dinged my midle finger again ;(

Niece's Nails & My Half Moon Mani With Nailene Stickers

I've been meaning to do a post about this for a while now. Somewhere around the start of August my brother came over with his girlfriend and her daughter, and when she saw me doing my nails, you could tell she wanted hers done too. She picked the polish and the image plate, which was a plate full of tips, but she has teeny tiny nails so the whole thing covered her nails. Painting tiny nails isn't so easy! Not my best handy work.

Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: BYS - Voodoo Violet (1 Coat)
Stamp Colour: N.Y.C.- Techno Foil
Plate: Bundle Monster BM220
Top Coat: Rimmel - 10 Day wear

And on to my nails! She sent me some Nailene stickers for my birthday. Which I got after I was done house sitting, so I wanted to do a mani with them :]

Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colours: George - Cloudless Sky & BYS - Pouty Purple
