Hi Guys, Lately I have been trying to wear my manicures for about a week or so, this way I appreciate the colors, glitters and designs even more then when I initially put them on.
Before I took off Pure Ice Glass of Bordeaux I stamped on a design and matted it.
Sorry about the large gap, since it was an old manicure I used Large Cheeky plate A to stamp with using this design. After cleaning up my gap became bigger but it looks larger in the photos then irl. I love this vintage design and like how the red glitter is peeking through.
I stamped the design using China Glaze Trendsetter from the Metro Collection Fall 2011. This mustard yellow stamped very well and it looks amazing over the glitter.
I mattified it with one coat of Hard Candy Mate-ly In Love. For my index finger I applied topcoat. Love the contrast between the matte and the gloss.
After an hour, I applied topcoat to the rest of my nails. I love it both ways.
Which do you prefer matted or glossy?
Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

this looks really, really great!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I really really love this. It's such an interesting combo. :D I love both versions, but the matte is just a tad more interesting to me. :)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this...especially the matte!!! Beautiful work :)
ReplyDeleteThe matte looks really sophisticated and is my favorite of the two. The frustrating for me is that I can’t find any of the four Pure Ice polishes that you reviewed on Nov. 20th in my area Wal-Mart’s, Amazon, or the Bari website. My sister lives in Florida and I am about to send her on a mission for me! Maybe they are there.
ReplyDeleteReally pretty! I like how it looks matte better!
ReplyDeleteI usually always like the glossy over a matte - but this design and color combo I love it in the matte..it brings up the old look to the brocade. Really pretty
ReplyDeleteI actually think I like this one shiny! It makes the stamping pop more.
ReplyDeleteThis is really good Rhonda. I think I prefer it matte. Gorgeous both ways though!
ReplyDeleteLooove the look of this mani!
ReplyDeleteNo clue Trendsetter could stamp but now I do !! Umm do I have to make a special Rhonda's board on my Pinterest?!?!?!? Your manis are always gorgeous !!! And this one is GORGEOUS matted !!
ReplyDeleteWow, this mani is sooo awesome! It looks great! I still haven't spotted these in my Walmart yet!
