China Glaze Don't Mesa With My Heart - Pink gradient flourish stamping tutorial

Hey People!

When I'm feeling uninspired I just copy myself, so this mani is just a copy of a previous mani but I changed the colors and stamping plate.  Also when I'm feeling uninspired I don't even bother writing an intro apparently haha!  SO hey!  How is everyone?  Better late than never I guess lol  Since I can't seem to string together decent sentences let's just go to pics ;)

I'm always a fan of pink!  I thought it would be fun to pair a crème, Don't Mesa With My Heart, with a shimmer, Don't Desert Me, as a gradient and I'm pretty pleased with the results.  I think the two finishes play nicely together.

The pink crème, 'Don't Mesa With My Heart,' is definitely not unique but I'm still digging it.  It's pretty!  You can see my swatches and review of this polish and the others in the China Glaze Desert Escape Collection HERE.  I added a couple of small black pearls and right after I did it I regretted it!  I think they take away from this mani.

On this macro you can see how the crème and shimmer play off each other, they bring out each others good side lol For the stamping I used Bundle Monster Black Noir and stamping plate BM-718.

Wow I really had to push through writing this post!  I suddenly just don't have much to say, maybe I should go to bed lol  So, pink.  Are you into it?  Do you hate it?

  7. Have to say I find your blog way more interesting and fun to read then the average blog! I increasingly copy myself recently haha! I disagree about the studs though. Really think they bring the whole mani together and make it flow :)
