Review: Dance Legend - Sticky Stamping Black


This black stamping polish is opaque and doesn't smudge easily. As shown below I have used it in both thin and thick lines and it picked up and stamped across well.

The name suggests it is sticky and should work with foils and burnishing powder however I haven't been able to get it to work with either of those methods yet. I would repurchase this as it is a good opaque black stamping polish.

Topic Tuesday: Finishes You Avoid?


I didn't used to wear glitter polishes as they are such a pain to remove but since discovering peel off base coat I don't mind those so much. So now I don't tend to buy pearlescent finish polishes.

Topic Tuesday: Brands You Don't Buy Because of Bottle Shape


I have a few bottles of Jacava polishes and they are too tall to fit on my shelves, so I wouldn't purchase any others from that brand. Another brand I don't like the look of the bottles would be POP, they are very slim and I imagine I would find it too easy to knock the bottle over.
