So this video is a tutorial that's so easy it's practically not even a tutorial. AND, I know crackles are older to most of us, but it's a great way to use what you have. :) ALSO, I knew people were going to ask about the design on my regular nails, so I ended up doing a fauxtorial in this video as well. lol So you get a 2-in-1!
I have several things to pre-answer:
1. The crackle polish is from bornprettstore.com (use code GINAK31 and get 10% off your order
2. The glitter liner polishes are from different places, like dollar stores and department stores. I don't remember where I got them.
3. Jade Jump is a near-dupe for OPI's Mermaids Tears.
4. The Cheeky plate is from a 5-plate set I just got on Amazon. I do not have a review of these plates up because the set is so tiny. However, I will be featuring them soon, and will show you the scraper that came with it because it's plastic! :)
5. The purple polish I purchased at WalMart for less than $2.
6. The design on my ring finger is an owl. I was inspired by a video which I just favorited this morning. Here's the link: youtube.com/watch?v=6QRj2S775Z4
7. The light I was talking about is an OTT light, a full-spectrum lamp that I usually use in my videos.
8. YES, you can use regular polishes to stamp - you do not need Konad polishes.
Thanks for watching! I hope you like one or both of these designs! :)
