NailNation is the Name, & Stamping is the Game!

Today's Bundle Monster Stamping Month technique was inspired by some manicures I've been seeing in the nail art community. I absolutely LOVE the stamped designs that are filled in with color, and after trying it myself, I've grown more respect for those who can do it so flawlessly!

The products I used to create this look are:
* NailNation 3000 - Marthe
* NailNation 3000 - Glow Worm
* NailNation 3000 - Gina... So Guess What
* OPI - Alpine Snow
* Cult Nails - Nevermore
* Bundle Monster - BM422
* Top Coat

I'll definitley try this technique again! It's a lot of work, but it sure does pay off in the end.

Around and Around

Thank goodness it's Friday! To kick off this weekend, I have today's Bundle Monster Stamping Month post!

I loved my manicure with Happy Wife Happy Life by Darling Diva Polish which I reviewed here, and I thought it would look really cool as a base color for stamping. So I grabbed BM-422 from the Bundle Monster Create Your Own stamping plate set, and my bottle of Silver Stilettos by Milani and this happened...

 Have a safe weekend everyone!

Peace & Love,

Sally Hansen Trendy Spring 2014 Insta-Dri Polishes Swatches & Review

Today on the blog I have two trendy Sally Hansen Insta-Dri polishes for Spring 2014! I will be showcasing 2 of the 8 recommended polishes for the rapidly approaching spring, as well as showing off my Bundle Monster Stamping Month manicure for today! The two colors I received Jade Jump and Go For Gold.

Jade Jump is a mint green creme polish. My swatches are two coats worn alone.

Go For Gold is a gold foil polish. My swatches are one coat worn alone.

I then stamped over Go For Gold with White On The Spot by Milani, using plate BM-H03.

Overall I really like the quality of these polishes, great as a base color and for stamping! These polishes did not streak for me, and dried pretty quickly in comparison to regular polishes. These colors may not be original, but I'd definitely buy more from this line just because of how good the quality is for the price.


Jade Jump If you wish to purchase the Insta-Dri polishes seen here or any others from the Insta-Dri line, these polishes are currently available nationwide  at a price of $4.95 each.

I Blame Impatience!

If you follow me on my Facebook Page, you would know that I didn't post this weekend because it was the weekend of my niece's Christening. I'm still continuing with my Bundle Monster stamping month, which I even continued with my Christening manicure. I think this manicure would have been amazing... If  not for my impatience! I was in an absolute rush so I slapped on my base color quickly, tried to apply gel top coat over regular nail polish (I was desperate at this point), and stamped my nails when they were not completely dry. The images stamped perfectly actually, but some how the base color only got smudged! It's not completely horrible, but definitely not up to my usual standards! If I had the time, I would redo my manicure without a doubt.

The products I used are When Doves Cry by Darling Diva Polish, Signature Gold by Milani, and Bundle Monster plates BM-310 and BM-322 from the 2012 stamping plate set.

NOTD - Fancy Schmancy ?

This is one Friday I am not happy for; the winter break is over and it's back to school Monday. But on the bright side the more I go to school, the faster I get out, right?

Today's NOTD is more on the elegant side if I do say so myself. The products I used to accomplish this look are Decades of Dysfunction by Orly, Dark Coffee by Milani, and Bundle Monster stamping plate BM-312. I know they're not stamped perfectly, but I like it and that's all that matters!

If there are any particular images from either the Holiday set, the CYO set, or the 2012 set that you would like to see stamped during this month, feel free to let me know and I will be sure to deliver! 

Peace & Love,

Ringing in the New Year with Bundle Monster!

Happy New Years everyone! I can't believe it is already 2014, time sure does fly! For the month of January, I have dubbed it Bundle Monster Stamping Month on my blog. I will be doing nail art, reviews, and NOTD posts featuring the 3 Bundle Monster stamping sets I picked up during their Black Friday deal a while back throughout the month.

Today's manicure is featuring plate H14 from the holiday set, and this is the manicure I wore to ring in the new year! The colors I used to accomplish (believe it or not) are:
* Cult Nails - Nevermore
* Color Club -Eternal Beauty
* Color Club - Cosmic Fate
* Color Club -  Cherubic (for the accent nail)
* Color Club - Halo-Graphic
* Color Club -  Over The Moon

I absolutely loved my manicure, and each color really pops on the nail in real life despite all of the polishes being holographic. These images stamped wonderfully, but I will go into more detail with that with my full review coming soon! Hope you enjoyed this post & stick around for a crazy month of stamping!

Peace & Love,
