02/15/20 - Black stamping on purple thermal with mermaid chrome powder
These were an experiment… base is a bright plum to dark grape thermal polish (Color Club Ready to Rock), followed by a gel topcoat, then a mermaid/unicorn chrome powder, black stamping polish, finished with Seche Vite top coat. They’re super shiny in real life… We’ll see how these last!

Inspired by @alinasnailspace. Once upon a time I didn’t like negative space because I thought my natural nails looked gross. Now I think they’re fabulous & want to do all the negative space manis!
