We Stamp on Sundays Glittery Pink Leopard!

Happy Sunday! This is my first ever entry for the 'We Stamp on Sundays' Adventures in Stamping Challenge. The theme this week was a plate ending in 7. I only have two plates ending in 7; M57 and another which I don't really like because it's just tips and I can't really get the hang of tip stamping (just yet). So I used he leopard print from m57 which I LOOOOVEEEE!!!

 Blurry pic to show all the GLITTER!

For these I used:
HITS - Florzinha
a-england - Galahad
Nail Pop - Sequin effect
China Glase - Techno
Konad Special Stamping Polish - Black

I love the colour of Florzinha but I have to tell you, I am SO disappointed in the HITS powerpuff girls polishes. I don't own any other HITS polishes. I bought Flozinha and Lindinha to test out and whilst the colours are so beautiful - florzinha is a beautiful pink with really fine pink shimmer - but the brush .. total pants. It's all over the place and feels like it's made of fishing line or something and the application is so difficult because a. the brush is not precise and b. the formula is a bit rubbish as well - all goopy and draggy. Yuck. These polishes cost $8 - that's about £6.50 so they certainly aren't cheap. They cost more than a China Glaze or a Barry M. I don't really expect a brush to be so rubbish for the amount of money. I really like the other colours but I won't be buying them. Whine/whinge/moan. Has anyone else had this problem with them?

I don't want to finish on a grump so I'm going to tell you about how much I love a-england Galahad! IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL! And it applies like a dream. Similarly, Techno, the glitter from the electropop collection is AH-MAZING. I wasn't that into it when I first saw it. I was like.. meh, it's a glitter. But it's not just a glitter OH NO! It's got great bit and teeny tiny holographic particles and it applies awesomely. Love love love.

Anyway! Sorry for the moan! I hope you like my glitter leopards. I wish glitter leopards were real!

Zoya Neeka + Bling

I AM IN LOVE!!!

I've had Zoya Neeka for a while and haven't got round to trying it... Oh what a fool I am! What an incredible, beautiful colour! I can't stop staring at my nails and showing everyone I meet. I'm like 'LOOK AT THE COLOUR' and they just stare at me like I'm mad. I guess only a nail polish lover can appreciate how special Zoya Neeka really is. It's a grey/purple with really tiny iridescent shimmer which shifts from gold to green through pink (maybe - there are so many colours it's hard to tell). Anyway I love it a lot. I've had these nails for about three days because I can't bear to take it off.

I added the bow and heart stamps from Konad Plate m57 with Konad Special Stamping Polish - White and added the little gems with an orange stick and some nail glue before finishing with a VERY generous coat of Seche Vite. I've heard that Zoya polishes don't like Seche Vite much but I had no problem with it.

And just because she's super cute; Starbuck the bunny:



Have you tried Zoya Neeka? Do you love it?
