After realising I didn't have any blacks (the horror!), I thought I''d try out a L'Oreal polish for the first time in years. I was very pleasantly surprised - The Black Swan is a super glossy, pitch black polish, that is opaque in two coats. Not to mention the easiest brush I have EVER used!
And as my latest dabblings have been around stamping and polka dots, why not combine them in the one mani?! So I used plate 323 from Bundle Monster's 2012 collection for the lacy bit as a corner accent, and then added polka dots to the rest of my nail. For the stamping I used Konad Special Polish in white and then used Barry M Matt White (which isn't matte, confusingly - named after someone called Matt White?) to do the dots. Was quite pleased with this one and had a few compliments too!
Base coat Orly Bonder, two coats L'Oreal Color Riche The Black Swan, stamping BM323 and Konad Special Polish in white, polka dots Barry M Matt White, Sally Hansen Insta-Dri top coat.

That's a really cute design! I love the lacy pattern mixed with the polka dots! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much! Learning to try and line the stamp up correctly each time was interesting :)
