Winstonia sent me their stamping plates to review and they arrived yesterday. Couldn’t wait to try them out! I’ll have a more thorough review later after I’ve tried a few more designs out, but for now here’s some polish and stamping. As for a short review, I had no problems stamping this one design. I used a regular Konad scraper and stamper.
NOTE: The plates are available for purchase straight from Winstonia HERE, or they’re also available through Amazon HERE.
Base Color: A-England Avalon & Smitten Hocus Pocus
Stamping Color: Essie No Place Like Chrome
Stamping Plate: Winstonia W108
I think this almost looks like a Halloween nail design! LOL!
From start to finish… First, I painted two coats of A-England Avalon (it’s the perfect purple under the glitter polish I wanted to use)…
Then I added one coat of Smitten Hocus Pocus. I don’t want to run out of this glitter polish so that’s why I layered it over the A-England Avalon. The purples are perfectly matched. :)
For the stamping, I used Winstonia plate W108 and Essie No Place Like Chrome (silver) to stamp a “paint dripping” tip. There were a couple nails that I didn’t get the design on the complete tip of the nail, so I went over the tip with the silver polish.
Maybe a black base & orange drip like would make this look better for Halloween but the way it looks here, I’m not too impressed-the glitter purple was so pretty that the silver just ruined it.
I like it both ways, but for different reasons. I think around Halloween as an accent nail, the paint drip tip could be really cute! :)
I absolutely LOVE how this looks!
amazing design! love it paint dripping look!
Hi Kristina, I love checking out your nails!! – these look fabulous and I love that there are all those polishes to get that great look! Thanks for inspiring my very functional fingers to at least get some TLC!
It reminds me of the MS dripy goo punch! Lol! Love it.
