Some Shameless Self-Promotion and Zoya Isla

Hello!

Okay, first the shamelessness and then the mani. Over at More Nail Polish blog, a contest is going on where each of the participants entered a franken, and now it's up to the blog's followers to vote on a winner! Go check out the gallery of participants! There are some awesome frankens, and if you'd like to help me out, I'm lucky #7, Frankenberry. On the site you can read a description and the recipe I used. If anyone's interested in more pictures, let me know, but I submitted the only perfectly-color-accurate one to the contest =] To vote, you must be a follow of More Nail Polish and fill out the form. Vote #7! =D Here's the link.



Now onto Isla! This is a deep red shimmer from Zoya, and as soon as I saw Scrangie's swatch, I fell in love. This color is amazing in person and I tried my hardest to capture it in photos! Here it goes:








After a couple of days I fauxnaded it with a Mash plate using Design-a-Nail polish in Voodoo. I loved this and got so many compliments!









Thank you for reading!

  7. Hi Peggy! Thank you so much =] I used a MASH plate for this design, which is basically like a Konad plate. There are plenty of tutorials online on how to use them. I used a special stamping polish for this design, but you definitely don't have to. Wet n Wild Black or any other opaque polish in any other will work fine for stamping, you just have to experiment with polishes until you find a good one. Thanks for the question!
