Before & After: Smoosh Attack! (UberChic Beauty 10-02 + Spellbound Nails Galaxy Nails Collection)

(Press samples and affiliate links ahead!)

Hello!!


For today's art, I wanted to try something a little different--I've seen some smoosh manis I like, and they seem like a faster way to get a seriotype sort of look, so I figured I needed to try it out.


I started with Spellbound Nails Milky Way, a white creme, and dotted on the other colors from her Galaxy Collection onto my stamper, then smooshed the colors on to my white nails. Here's how they came out:

Then I stamped over it with UberChic Beauty plate 10-02, and Messy Mansion Carbon:

What do you think? I love the stained-glass feel to it, and I love the way the colors blend underneath. And the technique is super easy!


Happy stamping,
M.

  3. Wowee, that end result is so pretty!
    (And don't know why, but the word "smoosh" just amuses me no end).
