DIY Peel Off Base Coat - Great For Glitter by Overpolished

I'm not gonna make my own tutorial, I'm just gonna show how this method worked for! The picture below speaks for itself.

The glitter polish came off without any effort and in (almost) one piece! As you can see I had some tip wear, as this is not a normal base coat meant to keep your polish chip-free. But for a full 3 day of wear, I'm more than satisfied! I can finally wear my glitter polishes without the hassle of (foil) removal. Two thumbs up!!!

Have you tried this method? How was your experience?

Have a great day!

Butterflies

Hi everyone!

I hope you all enjoyed your weekend!

Remember my previous Rainbow Honey Pinkie Promise mani? It was pretty on its own but I wanted to give it an extra "oomph"! It was a great opportunity to try some of my other "untried" stuff. So I stamped butterfly wings on my nails using the NailzCraze image plate NC01.

After I had stamped the images on all my nails I realized it would have looked better if I had stamped them the other way (left image on left hand, right image on right hand). Oh well, too late!

The images stamped very well. For this mani I used the small butterflies because my nails are shorter now. I still missed some tiny bit of stamping on my tips, so I filled them in with black acrylic paint. Also worth mentioning: if you're going to use the larger images, you will need a jumbo stamper, the normal sized ones won't pick the entire image and you'll have missing spots when you transfer the image to your nails. 

Materials used:
Bootie Babe - Brink of Pink (1 coat)
Rainbow Honey - Pinkie Promise (1 thick coat)
Konad Special Stamping Polish - Black
Acrylic paint - Black and White
