Harunouta, Stamping Plate 春の歌 L005

Hi girls!

Today I want to show you a reggae inspired nail art, and also to review a new stamping plate I got from Nurbesten.de: Harunouta 春の歌 L005 (*).

This plate’s designs remind the designs you obtain with the water marble technique. I have tried many times to do a decent water marble, but I have always horribly failed, so I am quite happy that now I can hack a water marble with a stamping plate! 😉

This plate costs 5.39 and it is available on Nurbesten.de: Born Pretty 12.5*6.5cm Rechteck Nagel Schablonen Stamping Platte Kreis L005. As always, with the code EABL10 you can get a 10% off discount on your orders!

This nail art took me some more time than usual. First, I painted one coat of white nail polish and I used a peel-off base to protect my cuticles. Then I used a make up sponge and 4 neon nail polishes to do the gradient effect. White nail polish is always a good idea when using neon colours, because this kind of nail polishes isn’t very opaque.

I removed the peel-off base from the cuticles and then I applied one coat of glitter top coat. Then I stamped the stars and completed my manicure with a clear glossy top coat. The design transferred pretty well from the plate, but I had to be careful while scraping away the nail polish in order to get a neat stamping (I got some imperfections on my ring finger nail).

Here you can read the full list of the products I used for this manicure. It’s a pretty long list!
