Pink nails

Hi everyone!

I am showing you another pink mani today to remind you that October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Keep yourself checked and beg your beloved ones to do the same.

Let’s go back to a happier note i.e. the nail art! My base is Catrice ICONails no. 31 Vegas Is The Answer stamped with Bornpretty special stamping polish in pink no. 16 and trasparent silicone stamping plate no. 4* from tosave.com. I mattified the mani with TNS Flash Mat top coat, except for my last photo where you can see the glossy version.

 

 

It’s my first time using a silicone plate and it’s way more difficult to use than the standard metallic ones. I’ve tried several stamping polishes and stampers but every time I get polish left all over. I begged for help in a Facebook group and several ladies told me the key is the scraper. You gotta use a firm scraper and scrape hard. I have no very hard scraper over here so I used the firmest I could find and this is the best I could get with it. You can see that there’s light pink all over the nails, out of the pattern itself. Honestly I’m giving it up. I can’t spend all this time on a mani, I’m all about being quick. 10 minutes is the max time I can spend on a manicure. Seriously. I am definitely going back to my beloved metallic plates. There are tons of them and they are gorgeous. I need no new funky stuff.

In the end I would say silicone plates are not what you want if you are beginners. If you fancy trying them though you can get a silicone plate and a very good clear stamper for just 1$ at tosave.com, so you won’t go bankrupt for sure. And if you are into hair extensions you can check SheinHair, too.
