I was browsing r/redditlaqueristas and I saw a mani with the most beautiful deep blue polish ever and knew that I had to have it. I checked the comments for the name and… I ALREADY HAD IT!1 Revlon’s – Royal. I also found Essie’s – Penny Talk which I’ve wanted forever and found at Rite Aid on clearance for 4$ (but the cashier charged me even less!) so I decided to use them together. I’ve been expecting the 2011 and 2012 Bundle Monster Stamping Plate sets for a little bit now, but I’m impatient and decided to use the only stamping plate I currently have which is Konad M57. I was aiming for an ocean like blue with a gold and bronze ‘net’ stamp over top and was pretty pleased with my result. While I was looking for something to hold while I took pictures, I realized that my mani looked just like my loofa :]

I was pretty mad when the Seche Vite dried and I saw how awful the shrinkage was. Especially on my ring finger, I had switched to Out the Door topcoat because of the warning label on Seche Vite, but I find that OTD will smear any design I put it over and SV doesn’t. I guess neither are safe anymore I plan on buying the Seche Topcoat Thinner and seeing if that helps, mine is about half gone and is incredibly thick so I think that might be the problem. Its never done this before and I’m really disappointed. Anyways, heres pictures!
