Tarot nails!!! Make your own Tarot with a stamping plate

 

You can create your own tarot with a stamping plate!!! Did you know that!? 

I have always been facinated by the art of Tarot even thought I am quite pragmatic girl who only believes what she sees.

The tarot (/ˈtæroʊ/, first known as trionfi and later as tarocchi or tarock) is a pack of playing cards, used from the mid-15th century in various parts of Europe to play games such as Italian tarocchini, French tarot and Austrian Königrufen, many of which are still played today. In the late 18th century, some tarot decks began to be used for divination via tarot card reading and cartomancy.  I know that they are used to read the future and give indications to the person asking some questions.

I would love to know more about this art but....I don't so I will keep the post just because if the aesthetic facinations that I have for Tarot. Some cards are simply beautiful and whimstical, they give a boho and dark vibe which I love.

Let's talk about the plate now!

The stamping plate I used in this nailart from Nicole Diary 162 and you can find it at @bornprettystore @bornprettystoreofficial www.bornprettystore.com

What  I love about this plate is that you can mix and match many different elements and create your own Tarot cart and stamp it on your nails. On the bottom side of the plate there is a set of card's outline and in the center parts some elements that you can place in the center of the cars.

On both sides of the stampint plates there are some full lenght designs of varius elements. I think this plate is so perfect for Halloween and wicked manis.

Plum cat eye with 2 in one magnet uv gel lamp!

Hello! 

I have recently received a package from Born Pretty Store full of new and unique items!

These polishes are a great trend today because they are an easy way to create designs a few seconds.

The cat eye polishes are called like this because you can create a shiny strip down across the middle reminiscent of the piercing, beautiful eyes of a cat.

Magnetic polishes are a magical invention. With the power of a magnet, some pigments of the color are attracted to areas of the nail, and with movement and different viewing angles, shift colors and location on the nail for a futuristic 3D effect.

There are 6 colours to choose from, the one that I have is the shade called  BP-CE02 Plum Flower id product # 48348 it is a purple with a pink red duo chrome, a very nice colour and looks great on black!

To create the cat eye effect I used this new amazing tool! Magnetic UV Lamp Two-in-one id # 47707. It looks like it comes from space but it a 2 in 1, it is a magnet (that covers different effects) and a mini gel lamp!

It has a  usb cable so you can use it while on your computer.  There are three different colours to pick from pink, white and black.

The magnts are oriente and the left and right bars, while the uv light is at the middle in the circle part.

I think it is a very useful tool because when you work with magnetic polish you have to work fast in order to get lines as sharp as you need, when the magnet is not near the lines blurr a bit. Here you have two tools in one to avoid this problem. Moreover you can move the magnet and create different effects.

On the bottom part it has different full pattern, that feature floral designs. On the rest of the plate there are singular flowers and leaves some animals like butterflies and birds.

I really find the kinds of designs very modern and edgy.
The images a really in many different sizes and you can use them orizzontally or vertically to fit any nail size! You can mix some of the desings use the geometric elements as background or add lines next to the flowers pattern, you can also layer many details in different colours.

 The plates are etched with precision and at a perfect depth giving an excellent stamping image.

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

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.

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.

Here is a collage with all the shades

Here are all the colours in details (but there are others if the temperature rises up)
