I might not look human yet, but the antibiotics are doing their thing. A lot of the swelling is gone. I'm hoping by Monday that will all disappear along with any remnants of the pain. Things are looking up!
I might even try sleeping in bed tonight. A good night of real sleep is really needed. If I can manage that, I might even have the energy to do nails tomorrow.
In the meantime, I have another Darling Diva polish from last week. I absolutely love this one.

This one is described as a "blackened evergreen", and I can't think of a better way to say it. It is deep, rich and dark. It's got a strong holo which makes it a ton o' fun to look at. As always, the formula is fantastic and I've gotten several days of wear without any tip damage.
I did want to play with my new creative stamper and my new Bundle Monster plates, so I stamped on this with Nicole by OPI Mer-Maid for Each Other and the BM XL18 plate.
The design on this is a larger remake of one of their designs that was on the typical round stamping plate. It was nowhere near big enough for my nails which is why I was happy to get the XL plates from Bundle Monster.
As for the creative stamper, it's a life changer. It made completely covering my thumb nails super easy. I'm not sure if the stamper material just stretches a bit when I stamp or what the deal is, but I was surprised when I looked at my thumbs and saw there were no bare spots. It's a win.
I got mine through a group buy that a friend of mine did, but they have it in stock here. I post that link because when I went to look at my Facebook groups to see where to get them, that's the first link that popped up.
If you like to stamp or if you have a love/hate relationship with stamping, I recommend it. This sucker is life altering.
Well, as life altering as anything nail polish related can be, I guess.

Love! Love!! Love!!! I just love a dark holo like that... I have one on right now too..almost an exact match to yours! Love it!!! And the stamper...YES! I was even able to do it! Woooooo Hooo... you KNOW how I've struggled with that! ugh!!!! Glad the swelling going down on the face, too... Ouch!
ReplyDeleteI'll be expecting to see lots of stamping from you now!!
DeleteThe Creative Shop Stamper is most excellent! I have long nails too & getting the CSS means I can now stamp all my nails easily. I've been pondering the new BM XL plates...are the images really bigger or just a lil bigger? Unless it's a collage plate or has 1"+ full nail images, I have to stamp on the diagonal to fit my nails & poor thumby ends up with those gaps you seem familiar with too. Oh the woes of long nailed polish bloggers! LOL I hope you feel better soon! <3
ReplyDeleteAh, you feel my design size pain. The XL Bundles are quite a bit bigger; not as big as DRK or LeaLac, but they are larger than the MoYou XL collection. If you have any MoYou, the BM plates are that size with 6 designs on each.
DeleteGood to know, thanks!
