Hi Everyone! I hauled out some of these matte's I have because A I love them and B I need to start using all this stash I have amassed. I mean seriously I have so much polish I haven't even used once for crying out loud. And it's getting rather ridiculous!
I've had Zoya Savita for ages and didn't even use it until the other day! I decided to yank it again and use it along with Veruschka and my new Pure Ice Blue Midnight. Check out what I came up with!
Wow! I really, really, REALLY love how this turned out! I wanted it to look like a peacock that's why I went with the gold in the half moon.
I stamped over it using BM212 but I wasn't madly in love with it
Not sure if it was the shiny top coat on it I didn't like
Or maybe it just covered up too much of the gorgeous gradient
I decided to matte it to see if I would like it better
Better but really it looked the best without stamping over it I think
What do you think--do you like without the stamping? Do you prefer the matte over the shiny look?
Thanks for stopping by!! I hope you have a fantastic day!
The stamping makes it extra peacock-y, but I think it's prettiest without it, too. Did you just use a sponge for the gradient?
ReplyDeleteMelanie I used a triangular makeup sponge for all my gradients
DeleteI love the stamping but I agree - it covers just a little too much of the gradient.
ReplyDeleteBtw - what polish did you stamped with?
Jin I stamped with my favorite gold for stamping China Glaze Passion!
DeleteI prefer it without, the colour combination is really pretty.
ReplyDeleteI really love the color combo too!!!
DeleteI think the stamping is amazing. I would love to recreate this. You are super talented :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Lou!!! I hope you do recreate it!
DeleteLove it both ways.
ReplyDeleteThanks Diana!
DeleteWow Laurie - I freaking love this!!! And I prefer it without the stamping too. Sometimes less is more. I may have to attempt this one. :)
ReplyDeleteAhh these are so awesome!
