Ugly Manicure Monday - 24

Hi there!

This ugly manicure comes courtesy of Erika at Icy Nails...

China Glaze - Roguish Red and Orly - Monster Mash.

Erika said she wanted to get her Halloween on, but she got her ugly on instead ;-p She painted Roguish Red onto her index and ring finger, and then stamped with China Glaze's Jolly Holly using Bundle Monster plate 224. It failed because it smeared and the green wasn't opaque enough to stamp on top of the orange. Erika painted an unknown purple by Funky Fingers onto her middle and pinky finger... then topped it with Monster Mash. She said it was torture wearing this manicure!

Thanks, Erika!

I may be in the minority, but aside from the smeared bits, I like this manicure!

If you have an ugly manicure, I'd love to feature it! Email me with what polish you used and what you intended your manicure to look like :-)

Until next time...

Nfu Oh - 61 Stamped

Hi there!

The first thing on my agenda today was stamping my favorite image (the flowers at the top of BM-205) from the new Bundle Monster set onto my nails. You probably know where this is going... it didn't happen. I seem to have received a defective plate :-(

I must have tried 10 times with Konad's special black polish before I gathered a few other black polishes to test out. None of them worked, either. So I tried the Konad polish again because I was determined. The image just would not transfer to the stamper. Boooo!

I emailed customer service and I asked for a replacement, because that plate truly does contain my favorite image from the entire set. We'll see what happens.

My nails still needed some spice, so I chose the image closest to what I initially wanted...

My nails painted with Nfu Oh - 61.
Stamped with Bundle Monster image plate BM-224.


I don't love this image with that base (I really had my heart set on that other image), but I don't think it looks bad. I used Konad's special black polish to stamp, and I topped it with a coat of Seche Vite.

Have you tried the new Bundle Monster image plates? Are any of your plates defective? I've read several reviews where the reviewers say they've run into the same problem that I did :-/

Until next time...
