Before & After: Porco Deco (featuring MoYou London Steampunk 07 and Literary Lacquers Porco Rosso)

(Press samples and affiliate links ahead!)

Hello!


A while back I showed you the delightful flakie-holo goodness that is Literary Lacquers Porco Rosso:

Maybe because the inspiration for the polish (the Hayao Miyazaki film Porco Rosso) is set in the 40s, but I felt a need to do something retro to this polish, so I pulled out MoYou London Steampunk collection 07:

I also did a video review of this plate, if you want to hear more thoughts on it and see a stamping test:




I stamped with Messy Mansion Soft Gold and Hit The Bottle Polish Peach Blow, a pink-to-coral duochrome stamping polish (I'm not sure if that one is still available, but she has tons of other beauties):

I love how the holo still sparkles through, and the duochrome stamping polish complements the colors in the base polish and gives a different look depending on the angle. This is soft and feminine but powerful steampunk at the same time!


Happy stamping,
M.

  2. Great stamping. This plate is so nice! I am sure that all designs on it would be looking great with any color. I recently found one webpage with interesting designs ( http://nailartstyle.com/top-60-navy-blue-nail-designs ) and want to try to combine stamping and those ideas.
