r/nailstamping

My first successful stamping of a whole nail set before I rage quit. I think I got it down now and very excited to finally play with my plates! Tips and tricks welcome 🤝💅

I had this idea for a while and I finally pulled it off!

All nails

- Essence Colour Grip Base Coat

- Emily De Molly Water Based Top Coat

- Glisten & Glow QDTC

Blue

- Kiko 030 Cobalt

- Essence Swirl Pool

- Essence Gloss And Roll (clear)

- Born Pretty SP008

- MoYu Silver Dust

- ILNP Take a Bow

Gold

- Shaka Light Gold

- Kads 12 (probably pearly brick red?)

The gold nails were pretty easy: two coats of metallic gold, then I stamped the starfish from the Whats Up Nails A019 Beach Mode plate with Kads 12 and a marshmallow stamper.

The bue nails took longer. I first painted a layer of Essence Swirl Pool, then I dripped a drop of Kiko 030 Cobalt, a drop of Essence Gloss And Roll and a drop of Essence Swirl Pool on a silicone mat, swirled them around with a dotting tool and smushed an ice cube stampers into it, then stamped onto my nails. After that I used the same ice cube stamper and Born Pretty SP008 with the Whats Up Nails A025 Silhouette Menagerie to stamp the coral/algae, then I added some fish from both plates stamped with MoYu Silver Dust and a marshmallow stamper since the ice cube one wasn't picking up the designs cleanly.

I topped all nails with Emily De Molly Water Based Top Coat and after 10 minutes I added a super thin layer of ILNP Take a Bow on the blue nails, and finally a coat of QDTC on all of them.

I'm really happy of how they turned out!

I am stuck inside due to the heat wave, so I decided to make my nails extra bright and cheery.

Plates are maniology M332 and the pinky and underside is MXM032.

Colors are maniology honeydew, sunrise, watermelon float, and coconut.

Press ons are BTArt box short almond

I'm so glad this plate was included in the PPU Rewind!

Desperately 😭

Officially the 3rd time doing my nails with both gel and stamping :D

I did these gorgeous neon cow print nails that look like summer in a mani 🤗 loved the result. One of my fav manis I've ever done. Are you a neon person?

Does anyone know of a plate that can replicate this comic book look? I would like to do this in another color but haven’t been able to find anything similar.

I know my clean up could use some work but it was 2 am lmao. I’ll go back in with acetone and a brush when I have the energy later. Used my Twinked T mat and the polishes pictured
