Femme fatale Lantern waste and tribal stamping nail art with glitterplacement "Hunting Aztec"

Introduction

Good day darlings, non traditional take on Aztec nails today. First of all I wanted to combine it with glitter placement for our macro challenge prompt and second I really wanted to use those cute images of man and various animals on HeHe plate. So I decided to add little action to the tribal ornament from Bundle Monster plate. The glitter placement part was the hardest, as I have only really small glitters and making a full nail glitter placement was out of question with my skills. Stamping ornament and placing glitter on top definetly helped though. I'm really happy with final look, except that pastel pink MDU lost its colour after I applied top coat, it did not happen previously, so idk what really happened. Oh, and did I mention base polish Lantern waste? It looks so freaking amazing with all the flakies and shimmer, I simply love it.

30 Days of Colour: Indie polish neon watermarble and Mundo de Unas stamping with MoYou Explorer 23 "African masks"

Introduction


My second June entry for 30 Days of Colour challenge Neon/splatter is a actually a stamping over neon water marble, so no splatter part. Water marble was done using decal technique, you can find detail in the original post. I was not sure which king of stamping to do and used African tribal masks from MoYou Explorer plate. It looks rather unusual, and I can not decide how I feel about this mani. My favorite is ring finger with sad mask, even though this stamping image makes nail look a bit crooked.

Tribal stamping nail art with Enchanted polish Freeze machine "Triangle gradient"

Introduction

I hope you are not tired of thermal polish, because today I have stamping combined with glitter gradient and thermal polish. If you follow my blog you might recognize two previous swatches as a base for this tribal stamping (Termo trio 1 and Freeze machine). I simply love this final version with stamping, all elements just works perfectly together and due to the thermal sensitivity you have several different looks in one mani.  My favorite is medium cold version with purple background and dark blue tips. I can say that my love for thermal polish gets dipper every time I use one.
