Born Pretty Store Texture plate




Today I have a review post on this Texure stamping plate [Texture-L002*, link] that I got from Born Pretty Store for review purposes.
Id product # 47461

You can use my coupon code
RASX31 for 10% off on www.bornprettystore.com




The plate is 12cm x 6cm, it is in stainless steel and the backing is in hard white plastic. The plate comes in a nice paper sleeve and has a blue protective film that needs to be removed before use.
There are patterns on this plate. They stamp and pick up nicely, and they work with nail polish and stamping polish too.


On the left side we have vegetation elements such as tropical leaves and flowers.


On the right side of the plate we find: on the top row leaves patters and a macro leaf detail, on the bottom row some abstract patterns. These last designs reminds me of that particular water marble techinique with spray alchool.
I find this kind of patterns so interesting so I decided to use them in this nailart.


The designs are very well engraved on to the stainless steel image plate, images are precise with sharp edges. I had no trouble picking them up.




As color base I used the Thermal Senstive Gel  and the black stamping polish from Born Pretty Store

Thermal Sensitive gel from Born Pretty Store! Tips ad Tricks



Hello!
I have already showed you this amazing Thermal Sensitive gel from Born Pretty Store in a previous post. Today I would like to show you another nailart and share some tips and tricks with you for a perfect application.
A Thermal Senstive gel is a very very sensitive colour changing paint that can change up to 12 different colours depending on the temperature. It truly looks like magic in a pot.
Id product # 48176

The product comes in a pot that contains 2 gr of products.


After you open it for the first time it can appear a bit cakey or lumpy, it can be due to temperature, so the best way to restore it is to try to stir it, put it in a sealed plastic bag and immerge it in warm water or add a bit of warm water and stir it again.

I have just tried to stir it a little bit and it helped a lot.



The paint is in a light beige colour. It has to be used only with gel polishes and with a black base underneath.
You have to apply a good amount of products otherwise the effect will not be very visible.
I have tried to work with thin layers but I have found out that the best way to apply it is with a dotting too, so that you can form a very even and quite thick layer of product.


Another suggestion is to be patient and wait for the Thermal Sensitive to be completely dry, this means that the light beige paint will turn almost completely transparent (or starting to show the changing effect). This is can take up to five- ten minutes if you made a thick layer.


You have to secure the design with a top coat so you will encapsulate the liquid and make it durable, with no lifting.

Here is a video to show the shift from cold to hot and a very special Norther Light effect.
