Loja BBF Nail Art Stamping Plates Swatches and Review Part 3

Hey stamparistas,

Hope everyone is having a great weekend! As you can see I've updated my blog again and I hope you like the new layout.   Today I'm back with another review from one of my favorite indie plate makers Loja BBF.  I know you are like why the heck is there a part 3 to this review?  Well that's simple.  I have no idea how to label these posts since the plates aren't released as collections, but rather individually in batches.  Today's review will focus on most of the the new plates from the last release that I spoke about here and as well as a few from the prior release here.  As usual with my reviews this post will be split up into sections covering the sizing, images, swatches, etc  so if you are interested in a particular section feel free to scroll through and please leave comments and questions since they are very helpful for answering questions in future reviews.  Now let's get started!

Elevation Polish Italian Collection Swatches and Nail Art

Welcome vanished vixens,

To another glorious month of beautiful mouthwatering offerings from Elevation Polish.  Lol it just never gets old with Lulu.  With every collection she reveals a polish, or if you are as addicted as I am several, that make me want to see just what she will come up with next.  The Italian Collection is no exception and as a bonus this month we also get to see a beautiful limited edition Yeti polish!  I don't know about you but I am desperate for any Yeti I can get my greedy little paws on lol.  Ah that Cosmoprof Yeti how you haunt me! Alas in any case let me introduce you all up close and personal like to one of my favorite collections to date from Elevation Polish inspired by Lulu's mani ahem many adventures to the land of romance, pasta, and killer leather goods ;)

Hot Off The Stamping Press: MoYou London Explorer Collection Expansion!

Hey stamperellas,

MoYou London has had quite a busy week right? Rolling out surprises one after the other and devastating our plate loving hearts and cringing wallets.  Lol!  It just can't be helped right?  In any case I am so excited to see MoYou has finally added new plates to the Explorer Collection again.  As I mentioned yesterday and countless times previously this is my favorite of all the many collections.  The tribals and the indigenous influences in these plates continue to draw me in and I adore them.  Honestly with the way MoYou keeps releasing plates I'll be living on a ramen only diet very soon ;)

Hot Off The Stamping Press: MoYou London Zodiac Collection!

Stamperistas,

This one came totally out of nowhere and true to the usual MoYou London style was executed absolutely beautifully!  That's right MoYou London has gone ahead and released a Zodiac Collection, and best of all its started with Leo's. Rawr - I just had my birthday last Friday so the timing is perfect! The first plate in this series is ridiculously gorgeous, but please judge for yourselves.

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Rio Collection Swatches and Nail Art

Happy Saturday lacqueristas,

Today is a pretty special post for me.  I was so shocked and honored when I was contacted by Sally Hansen to create a few manicures with some of their beautiful polishes. As I always say anytime I am asked to swatch or create nail art for a brand it's always a mega honor and I'm always flattered.  And if you've kept an eye on my manicures then you know I've been a long time fan of this brand, but in particular a lot of my nail art features the Insta Dri line!  I use these mainly for stamping since they are opaque and often in brilliant colors that I don't have available elsewhere.  I'll be sharing a few of the new ones later, but today I have select swatches and nail art from the Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Rio Collection.  These polishes are matte glitters contained in a clear base, and as with most matte glitters they represent a great way to create instant nail art.
