Stamping Plate: MoYou - Ethnic Collection 6*

MoYou have recently released a new collection of XL stamping plates and I have a couple to review. These plates are 120mm by 63mm.

They come packaged in a cardboard slip sleeve and with a protective blue coating which you peel off to reveal the images.

Ethnic Collection 6 has over 30 images on it, a couple are single images and the rest are full nail designs.

Again some of the images were tricky to work with, I did find using a more gentle hand with scraping helped. The plate has some unique designs on which would make for some fun nails.

Here are some nails I have used this plate in;

Halloween Nails: Vintage Chevrons

Every year I do a run of Halloween themed nail art every other day in October in the run up to the 31st. 2016 is no different, and so today I am wearing some darker, more alternative chevron accent nails.

Review: Born Pretty Store - Chevron Stripe Tape*

This is a roll of chevron striping tape, the roll of tape can be used as a stencil and be painted over or can be used as it is. It comes in six different colours, silver, white, black, gold, blue and red.

The tape itself is very thin which means it sits on the nails well without sticking out. You can use them in both ways which I have or you could peel away the chevron shape and be left with the side parts to create your own chevron colours.

For these nails I used the tape as a stencil. Painting my nails with a base polish waiting until it was dry and then using the tape over top.

Then after painting over with black polish I immediately removed the tape.

Finally I cleaned up the edges of the nails.

For the next nails I used the tape as it is for an accent nail, sticking the tape down to the nail and then removing the sides of the tape.

Leaving behind an accent nail which I went on to top coat, to seal in the design.

The final design I created using the tape was a half and half design. I used the tape across the centre of the nail and then painted one shimmer polish below and another above before removing the tape to create the following design.
