Emily de Molly Natural beauty Baby boomers and Shamrock foil stamping

Introduction

Good day darlings. Belated post with st. Patrick's nails designs. My base was a baby boomer french with Natural beauty Emily de Molly. On top of it I did foils stamping using gold and green holographic foils from born pretty store. And finally I added one coat of green jelly with holo microgliters - Ursula. Honestly I liked all three stages of this design, especially baby boomers, which look more delicate and feminine compared to regular french.

Introduction

Good day darlings. It's already Saturday and I'm ready to share my Aqua/Turquoise design for 40 great nail art ideas collaboration. This time I was supposed to make houndstooth, tweed or plaid design, as you can see I chose plaid with a little twist. First of all background is made using two glow in the dark Dance legend polishes, their mix creates perfect base. And second on my accent nail I added heart shaped foil stamping, because Valentine's day is approaching so fast. Let me know in comments what do you think about this nail design.

Nail art with colorful foil stamping fireworks "Happy 2016"

Introduction

Good day darlings. I could not resist and made another firework stamping to celebrate new year. I was inspired by awesome blogger Zlata and used multicolor foil with added round glitter on top to write 2016. Unfortunately after glitter placement, fireworks became less bright, luckily I took some pictures before. If you are interested how I do foils stamping take a look at my video tutorial. So many people ask me about it and what are the trick which I use, that I decided to make a Foil stamping troubleshooting tutorial, with pictures and real time videos. It's gonna take me some time to put all info together, but I hope to post it this month.

"New year's fireworks" with holographic foil stamping

Introduction

Good day darlings. New year is just around the corner, so I could not resist and made firework nail design using holo foil stamping. In the shade it looks just like gold stamping, but in the sun you can actually see those hypnotic folo beams and they become real fireworks. I used wonderful Pet'la plate for this design (fireworks), turns out it has perfect etching for foil stamping. My stamping polish was Konad Black pearl and top coat Revolution by Picture polish. Oh and background is fantastic dark teal August 2014 from Enchanted polish, although you can not see all its beauty covered by fireworks. Also I made another video tutorial for you. Happy new year !!!

Challenge your nail art: foil stamping nail art "Christmas presents"

Introduction

Good day darlings. Today I have another foil stamping nail design. It's called "Christmas presents" and is inspired by gifts which my little son got from Santa this year. I used two beautiful polishes with names which fit fantastically to this mani: pink shimmery polish Once upon a dream from Fair maiden and super interesting blue polish Up above the world you fly Femme Fatale. For stamping I used multicolor foil, which does not look super interesting on its own, but gives fantastic colorful images with stamping.

Reindeer wrapping paper inspired nail art with foil stamping

Introduction

Good day darlings. Today I have nail design of which I'm really proud. In order to combine two challenges, I wanted to make something inspired by wrapping paper with reindeer. Among all beautiful gift wraps which I found online, one with  simple light brown background and foiled reindeer design really cough my attention. I decided to replicate it using foil stamping technique which last time turned out so great. Moreover this time I had special foil top coat from Picture polish called Revolution. It was recommended by one of my readers, the owner of Pins patterns and polish blog. Thank you, thank you so much  it works so perfectly for foils, does not smear them or interfere with holographic shine. However, since I was using White Konad for stamping and red foil it was way more difficult to get clear image. All the tiny bits where foil did not stick where showing right away. I had to repeat several times until it started to work well. So my recommendation is to use stamping polish similar in color to the foil. Unfortunately non of my red stamping polishes worked well for this technique. I also tried to cover entire nail with foil and this worked very well with Color club Berry and bright as a background. Finally, to finish this look I stamped Christmas tree and snowflakes on top of the foiled nails and covered everything with two coats of Revolution. This top coat helped to preserve foil for several days, needless to say it made me super happy.
