Silver stamping polish from Born Pretty Store!



Hello!
Today I have some new products to talk you about.
This new year resolution is all about improoving my stamping skills, so I am trying different products to make this process as easy as possibile.

If you’re into nail stamping, you know the struggle of finding reliable stamping nail polishes, some might work with some stampers and not with others, others works only on light shades.

In the last few months I have been trying some stamping polishes from Born Pretty Store (stamping thermal polish reviews in this post and this post) so I decided to order many others colours to test them with different plates.

I have tried 3 shades of the collection BP-WN04 Pure (the white),BP-WN03 Throne  (the black), BP-WN02 Time Fly (the silver).

They all come in a 9ml bottle with a brush applicator, all of them are very pigmented, are ideal for stamping over dark colours and only require one coat. they are all opaque and this is a plus in stamping polish because matte formulations transfer very good on the stamper.





I am positively surprised by these polishes, the first one I am going to review is the one called BP-WN02 Time Fly , it is a beautiful chrome silver, very shining and rich.

For this shade I wanted a modern and geometric design. I used this plate and this plate number BPL-027








I used a blue polish with a flakies top cat as base as I feel that's the best way to see how pigmented this shade performs.



.I'm very impressed with this silver stamping polish as it offers amazing colour payoff, it is almost like a mirror chrome!
The designs tranfer perfectly,  you can see how clean the stamped designs is, no matter how intricate the stamping plate.

Hidden nail art with thermal polish


Ever since I was a child I have been very fascinating with colour changing items.
 In the middle of the 90s there were a lot of merchandising such as lipstick, mood rings, pens and stationery that was supposed to change colour according to your mood. To be honest that had nothing to do with mood or feeling but there were just pigments that changed colour depending on the temperature of the environment or the body.

Thermal polishes have been around for a while but I find very hard to buy them from local stores because they are part of temporary collections or you can't try them and see the real colour shift.
Online you can find a larger selection, in particular the online store Born Pretty Store has many colours, normal polishes, gel polishes, glitter polishes, they even offer colour changing pigments.


Last time I have tried a beautiful coral pink, now I decided to go for a darker shade a deep grey that turns into a icy light grey or even white.
I think this beautiful grey will lent itself well with a geometrinc stamping nail art!
What I love to do with these kind of polish is what I call an "hidden nail art".

Here is a small video to show the amazing colour changing effect!




I paint all the nails with the thermal polish and then I stamp over it with a very similar colour.
It is hidden because when your hands are cold it looks like a normal plain grey nail polish but when your nails are warm the nail polish turns light grey (white) and it reveals the geometric design.





You can buy it here and there are other 9 shades.

The bottle contains 9 ml. The formula is a bit thicker than a normal polish, I think because it contains this special thermo sensitive pigment. Two coats are enough to create an even colour and I had no issue with the application at all.

I stamped with this beautiful plate for BPS too:
you can find it here




I added a triangle flakie decoration on the ring finger.
