Review: UberChic Beauty Out Of Africa

(Press sample)

Hello!

Are the winter doldrums getting you down? Do you have a little jungle fever? Wish you could get out of the house, maybe go someplace warm, maybe like...Africa?

Let's go on a little trip together, to the deserts and savannahs of Africa, and even back in time, courtesy of UberChic Beauty's Out Of Africa plate...

Of course I have a video review for you:



And here are still shots of the images:

How does it stamp? Just take a look at the detail in the beautiful lion's face:




For my sample mani, I started with a base of Native War Paints Extra Crispy Walkers:

Then I made some pyramid decals using Messy Mansion Carbon and Barry M Gold Foil; while I was waiting for them to dry, I stamped my texture using Konad Green Gold:

There's gold in them thar pyramids...

I adore this mani--something about the combination of the colors, with the flashes of glitter from the base polish coming out of the dark, and the two different golds working together to balance the dark. It looks like there are hidden jewels peeking out, like the hidden treasures you'd find in a pyramid.

You can find this plate (and some awesome new releases!) on the UberChic Beauty website; don't forget to keep up with them on Facebook as well.

Happy Stamping,

M.
