This challenge is perfect opportunity to try out techniques I didn’t use in a while, to do manicures that are out of my comfort zone … things that I normally wouldn’t be inclined to do.
I’m not a fan of stamping over shimmery/glittery base. For unknown reason I prefer metallic image over creme base. Second thing that you’re not very likely to see on my nails are romantic manicures. Today’s combo falls in both categories. :D
Here are the products I used for day 2 pink challenge manicure: Essence Love This City, Inglot 205, Manhattan Pro Mat Top Coat, Essence Stamp Me! White and H7 fauxnad image plate.
I started with Essence Love This City as a base color and then applied Inglot 205 flakies all over the pink base. To finish the manicure I added flowery design from H7 image plate + Essence Stamp me! White in opposite corners. The final effect reminded me of lacy satin … but I couldn’t really capture the effect on the photo.
Shine was really annoying me, so I mattified the mani with Manhattan Pro Mat top coat.
But in the end I didn’t prefer matte finish over glossy one. Yeah – I’m hard to please. :D
Which version would you rather wear – glossy or matte one … or neither?

Čudovito! :love:
Hvala.
nosila bi obije iako mi se nekako mat mrvicu vise svidja
Matiran je više pink, tako da se meni više sviđa prva. :biggrin:
very beautiful combination!
Thx, Nicole. :rose:
Všeč mi je prva verzija. Zmatirana zgleda nekako… ubito.
Ampak vse pohvale ne kombinacijo roza-zlate – božanska je :party:
Pri meni si zasluži največji plus, ker roza postane bolj peachy. :biggrin:
great job!!!
Thx. :rose:
Jaz imam tudi še flejkije v planu. :yes: Kombinacija mi je všeč, jaz bi samo čipke naredila temno vijolične, sicer pa lepa manikura! :thumb:
Sem ugotovila, da imam zelo malo lakov za konkretno konadiranje, ki niso metalik. :angel:
Najprej sploh nisem opazila belih zvezdic in po nekaj minut strmljenja sem jih le opazila, menim da bi bilo lepše brez njih, ampak ker niso preveč opazne izgleda uredu :thumb:
Tale vzorec je svetoven – ene vidimo rožice, druge, zvezdice, tretje golobice … :biggrin:
Kombinacija mi je zelo všeč – razen belega štempljanja bi se izognila…
V živo je še nekako izgledalo, na fotkah pride pa čisto čudno. :zip:
A nice combo!
I’m not sure if I like the white stamping … It just sits on the nails … it doesn’t blend with the whole image. Maybe that was exactly what you wanted and that’s totally fine. :thumb:
On the photos I don’t see a big difference between the matte and shine version, that’s why I can’t really decide which one do I prefer.
Good job Gejba! :thumb:
It was suppose to serve as a frame, but not really something that works for us with high C shape.
