Stamping Plate: Konad M65

Recently I have been going through my stamping plate collection to see which I have reviewed. This was one of my first stamping plates in 2010, Konad was one of the first stamping companies and since then technology has moved on and so I don't often reach for my Konad plates anymore.

My problem with this plate is the images are very small for full nail designs.

The images do stamp across well though.

Nail Polish Swatch: Leighton Denny - Steel Appeal

I have previously swatched this six years ago. As far as I am aware it is still available, and I'm going to continue using and would like a much better swatch post to link back to.

Steel Appeal is Leighton Denny's favourite shade.

Topic Tuesday: What Polishes Do You Keep a Backup Of?

I have backups of Barry M Black Forest as it is a good black cream polish, it is much better formula than Barry M Black. I use a lot of black in nail art as well as wearing as is. Other than that one I have a couple of bottles of Revlon Facets of Fuchsia.

Topic Tuesday: Favourite Colour Combo for Valentine's Day

For Valentine's Day I think that typical choices would be red and pink. I am currently trying to use up my bottle of Champneys Pink so have been reaching for that a lot this year for Valentine's. A good red would be Barry M Blood Orange.
