HPB Presents - May Hibiscus Flowers

This is my first time participating in a blog link up, and the theme for this month is "May Flowers", so I decided to use the hibiscus flowers that grow around my apartment complex as inspiration.

I've never even seen a yellow hibiscus flower before moving here, just pink ones. :) I used various combinations of water marbling, stamping, and decorations to achieve this look.

Polishes and plates used: Zoya Anais, China Glaze Happy Go Lucky, Sugar High, and Heli-yum, Nine Ultra Pro Lime Light, Kleancolor Fuschia Glitter and Metallic Green. Designs stamped with Konad special polish in black and white and Kand Nail special polish (dark green shade) with plates SH01, Pueen SE02A, and Moyou Tropical Collection 05.

Dudes! So I did this manicure like a month ago but then I totally forgot to make a post about it, which is crazy because I quite liked it. But now that I'm in the process of moving from Korea to Okinawa, all my nail polish and stamping supplies are packed up to get shipped. :( So I don't remember all the names of the shades and the stamping plate I used, but I can come back and edit this post later when I finally have all my glorious nail stuff back.
I do know that the glitter on my pinky is one of Etude House's cute new glitters, containing all kinds of shapes like stars, moons, and snowflakes. I sure am going to miss South Korea's fantastic, cheap glitter polishes.

Light purple and copper stamping

A little while back I bought a couple of the Revlon parfumerie polishes, and I really dug them, so I bought several more with my Christmas money. So far of the ones I've tried, Wintermint is my favorite. I got these for the cute bottles more than the scents, but man, Wintermint smells good. The first one I tried was Autumn Spice and I was not a fan of that scent at all. I was happy when it washed off in the shower the next day.
Anyhoo, for this manicure I used Lavender Soap. I was a little bit worried about the scent of this one because I can't stand lavender, but it mostly smells like soap and fabric softener, so I was ok with it. Unfortunately the formula of this polish wasn't that great. It went on really streaky and even after three coats, some areas still weren't totally covered, but I figured the stamping would help to hide it.
Speaking of stamping, I got the Pueen Encore collection with an Amazon gift card gifted to me by my brother. I really like these plates. They came in a lovely little booklet with plastic pages in which to store them. This was my first attempt at doing a multicolor "sticker" or decal stamp. It didn't come out perfectly, and when I topcoated it it got covered in air bubbles. >:/ But I'm hoping to get better at that technique with practice.
