I'm quitting Stamping Month! Reptile Nails

Hi guys! Today, I would like to show you my final manicure for Stamping Month. The reason is, after Watermarble Month, I was DESPERATE to do different forms of nail art. Now that I started Stamping Month, I'm limited to what tools I use. I just want to be able to use my striping tape, brushes and glitter, not just a stamping plate, a scraper and a stamper. I'm really sorry :( I hope you enjoy these Reptile-ish nails! I will not be quitting Stamping ENTIRELY, just Stamping Month.

Products used:

BYS 'Antique Gold'

Mode 'Vicious Venom'

Face of Australia 'You Blew Me Away' + Sinful Colors 'Hottie'

Stamping Polish: Kleancolor 'Black'

XL Stamper

Cheeky Jumbo Plate D

Philippines Watermarble

Hi guys! I'm back with another manicure for Watermarble Month. Today, I decided to do a design inspired by the Philippines' flag colours. If you've been watching the news, you would know that a massive typhoon hit the Philippines and was said to be the second deadliest Philippines typhoon. It killed at least 4000 people.
If you didn't know, I am actually from the Philippines and moved to Australia about 3 years ago. I have a couple of family members there but thankfully, they weren't hurt.

Stamping Manicure

Hey guys! I've been really enjoying the school holidays! Just laying in bed, watching Fairy Tail all day ^-^ I know, I know, I should be outside, being active, but I'm too LAZY! (╥_╥) Anyway, I decided to do a stamping manicure because my big stamping plate was just screaming out "Use me! Use me!" So I did and this is what I came up with!

I really like this mani! It's quite similar to the water spotted nails that Cutepolish did on Youtube. There are a few bald spots but I don't really care, not everything has to be perfect! Other than my index, everything looks good! I put topcoat on top of my index and pinky and it smudged a little so I was scared to apply top coat on the rest of my nails! I waited about 15-25 mins? and then applied top coat on my middle and ring finger. Yay! No noticeable smudging! Minimal smudging = Happy Sophia!  (∩▂∩)

Are you guys liking my new watermark logo? :) I got bored and decided to make one! I'm thinking of making it different every manicure! What do you guys think? I seriously have too much time on my hands during the holidays..

Products used - Big Stamping Plate + Plastic Scraper + Stamper (They were a prize so I don't know what store they were bought from) 

*UPDATE* I just found out that the stamping plate I used is actually Cheeky Jumbo Plate D

Index Finger: Kleancolor - Pastel Orange (2 coats. You might need 3 coats)

Middle Finger: BC Co. Shade 14 (2 coats)

Ring Finger: BC Co. Shade 8 (2 coats)

Pinky Finger: Ulta3 - Soft Hydrangea

The polish I used for the stamp was Kleancolor - Black. It is seriously the best black polish for stamping! If you have a store near you that sells Kleancolor, GO AND BUY THIS POLISH!
