This year I decided to do nail art stamping that is inspired by St. Patrick's Day instead of a true St. Patrick's Day themed mani. What I mean by that is, no four leaf clovers or leprechaun's on my nails. I decided to use a green and gold polish to kind of represent the pot of gold.
So let's get to it. Here's what I used:
- Base coat: Rejuvacote by Duri
- Base Color 1: Payton by +Julep Maven
- Base Color 2: Ziv by +Zoya Nail Polish
- Top Coat 1: Miracote by Duri
- Stamping Polish 1: Amazon Moss (#815) by +PUEEN
- Stamping Polish 2: Hathaway Gold (#609) by +PUEEN
- Stamping Plate: Apipila Placa A
- Top Coat 2: Miracote by Duri
- Stamper: Unknown Marshmallow stamper (sorry)
- Lint Roller to clean stamper head
- Acetone to clean off plate & scraper
- Poli-Peel by +Bundle Monster
I wanted clean and simple design, so I chose to use dots in 3 different sizes; with the largest dots on the middle fingers and gradually smaller dots going to the pinkies & thumbs.
Here are the steps for creating the design:
- apply base coat
- apply base colors
- apply top coat before stamping
- apply Poli-Peel (or other liquid latex type of product for easy clean up)
- stamp the largest dots (middle finger)
- stamp the 2nd largest dots (index & ring fingers)
- stamp the smallest dots (pinkie & thumb)
- apply final layer of top coat
