Gabriella Salvete: #54 Hot Plum
Pink shimmer

The formula of this pretty shimmer is really good and so is the coverage. I used two coats for full opacity and the drying time was good.

I stamped a heart design on it from the stamping plate “Marianne Nails No. 67”. I stamped with the stamping polish “Vinous” from El Corazón.

This is the final design, including a layer of topcoat.

And here’s “Hot Plum” alone, two coats and no topcoat.

Nail Kind: Pink Elephants

 Nail Kind: Pink Elephants
Dusty pink crème

"Pink Elephants" was included in a beautybag I received recently. I probably wouldn't have picked the dusty pink colour myself because I'm not that big a fan of dusty polishes. But the rule is that they need to be worn before they get rehomed so I'm wearing it today.

The formula is amazingly good and so is the coverage. You could easily get away with one single coat if you wanted to. I used two coats though. The drying time was good.

First I applied a layer of Painted Polish's holo topper "Diamond Dust".

Then I stamped on it. The leaf design is from the stamping plate "Marianne Nails No. 13". I stamped with two stamping polishes from El Corazón: "First Kiss" and "Restless Night".

Here's the end result, including a layer of topcoat.

I really like stamping gradients like this one.

Here's a super blurry picture of the things I used today. :D

 

I must admit that "Pink Elephants" surprised me. I was SO ready to not like it, but I must admit that it has grown on me. It's a keeper!
