Leadlighting Technique with Dance Legend Top Aquarelle Polishes

Hello lovelies,

 

I'm sorry I haven't been posting much, I'm in some kind of a block. I don't feel like doing anything nails or blogging, it's probably all the wedding stress setting in. I'll try to post more often but if I don't then you know why.

 

I think it's time for me to finally try the leadlighting technique. I know this is old news and I'm very much behind but I just had to try it. This is really my first attempt. It is not a massive fail but it could've looked better.

 

I was testing out the Dance Legend Top Aquarelle collection polishes. They are basically tinted polishes that can be mixed and layered and can create wonderful effects.

I started with two coats of Models Own Chrome Green, then I've stamped with Konad black stamping polish and Pueen Fireworks Festival stamping plate. Then I've used doting tool and Dance Legend Top Aquarelle in Levitan and Picasso to fill in the patterns.

 

This cool pattern reminded me of peacock feathers so it was one of the first I wanted to try. The Pueen Fireworks Festival stamping plate is huge and full of different patterns and images. I will definitely show you more soon!

 

Have a lovely Sunday! Lucie x
