Foil Explosion Stamping - Green Edition!

Hey Ladies!

Today I am showing you the last of the foil explosion by NYC that I have purchased. I'm going to show you how the green one stamps today!

I'm not really happy about how this turned out :( I didn't have a green that was light enough for the foil to show through clearly! So I choose a light brown to stamp over and I didn't like how the stamp shows....it shows the colour green as silver :( wahhhhh....

Either way it stamped perfectly just like the others and I was okay with that... :) now all I need to do is go out and buy a green that is suitable enough to stamp over!

Here it is!

What do you ladies think?! Doesn't it look more silver rather than green?

Thanks for reading!

Bye for now!

Foil Explosion Stamping - Pink Edition!

Hey Ladies! 

You all saw my post yesterday, where I showed you how the NYC Foil Explosion blue version stamped! Here I am today showing you how the Pink one stamps! 

Initially I was going to use a simple stamp design and do some curves...Instead I decided to go for something more complicated to really test how these polishes stamp and I have to say I am really impressed! The design I used is so fine and delicate that even other polishes don't work well with it!

This is the design

You  can see its really fine detail :) Here it is stamped with Power Of Elements over Lavender Cupcake!

Ultra crap lighting! Sorry ladies :(!

As you can see it stamped the design really well! What do you gals think!?

Thanks for reading, stay tuned for tomorrow for the green version!

Bye for now!

Foil Explosion Stamping - Blue Edition!

Hey ladies!

Over the next few days I am going to show you a few stamping manicures I did using the NYC Foil Explosion collection :) I have previously swatched these so if you would like to see them in more detail follow this link (HERE) 

I am first starting off with blue :) so I painted my nails with NYC - Ink Stain. It's a lovely deep blue! 

Then I stamped on using Aqua Mystic. Seriously ladies, this stamped on perfectly! The foil colour is so pigmented and really really adds a lovely effect! 

Here it is!

What do you ladies think?!

Stay tuned for tomorrow to see the pink edition of foil effect stamping! 

Thanks for reading!

Bye for now!

Another Half-moon??

Hey girls

I have yet another half-moon manicure...I am really loving these, the only reason is because I've mastered them hahaha I can get a perfect half-moon line! YAAAAY!

I love Sinful Colours - Timbleberry shade so it was only logical to put NYC - Power Of Elements on top of it to match the colours :) like a neon and foil explosion!

First here is what Timbleberry looks like :)

A really lovely shade of a neonishy pink :) has to be one of my favorites!

Now on to the real deal!

Yaay! Instagram Pic!

I really love how both the colours look really nice with each other and I am sure that I will do it again with green! muahahah!

What do you guys think?

Thanks for reading!

Swatcher ~ NYC ~ Foil Explosions Collection!

Hey girls!

I was in Superdrug the other day and I went up to the NYC stall and saw that they had some new nail polish on the stall, it's their Foil Explosions collection! I immediately knew I have to buy them  :D I only managed to buy three out of the five and I may or may not buy the other two :)

As you all know I am a big fan of NYC nail polish, the quality is just amazing and I love how they're mostly two thin coaters and always dry in perfect time! I love all the shades they have :D

All swatches are two coats

First up I have Magic Earth...OMGGGGGG I love the name so much and it totally suits the shade! I know that this is my new favorite nail polish of all time and I will wear it all the time! 

Just love how this looks on my nails :D and of course the quality is great and it really does look like foil!

Next up is Power Of Elements which is a lovely foil pink shade and I must say that I also like this shade a lot even though im not a pink fan, this is a great colour!

Lastly, I have Aqua Mystic and this is a blue shade and of course I had to get this one! I have such a soft spot for the colour blue! 

LOVEEEE IT!!

I think I may use these colours in stamping and see what they're like, they do remind me of Barry M's foil effects...but better hehehe...

What do you think?

Thanks for reading!

Bye for nows!
