Maniology 2nd Gen Creative Nail Art Stamping Polish - Essentials: Primary, Straight Up Black

And so does this stamping polish!

Stamping

You kind of need this polish for stamping with black. I tried stamping with regular black polish before concluding I needed a polish formulated specifically for stamping. It's really night and day - this polish transfers designs extremely well, and dries quickly once on the stamper. There is a slight purple shimmer in the bottle, but it doesn't show up as anything but black once you stamp with it. The only downside is that this polish is EXTREMELY laborious to clean off your skin. I used liquid latex to try and minimize the cleanup, but some polish still got on my cuticles. Still, this polish is nearly essential for stamping, and I'll use it until the end.

I've tried several different brands of white stamping polish, including gel stamping polish, and this one is by far the best and most reasonably priced of the polishes I've tried. I really like the creamy texture and NO color bleed through on the stamp. I tried to use white Born Pretty at Christmas for candy canes over red and the color was so weak the stripes looked pink. Very frustrating! I love Maniology products! (formerly Bundle Monster)

I got this as a set of 6. I have tried many other nail stamping products, may of them the white, black and red are not vibrant at all. In fact I always thought my stamping technique was horrible until I bought BMC stamping nail polish. Also with this polish it is east to do reverse stamping because it does not dry out quickly like other stamping polishes that I have tried. This came within a week. I definitely recommend this and in fact I'm getting more colors for my collection.

This is the only product from bundle monster I'm not 100% satisfied with. I'm giving it 4 stars only because the brush was a little wonky and the polish itself was suuuuper thick. It works great for stamping but if I wanted to use it as regular nail polish I wouldn't be able to do it.

The black works the best for me for stamping.

It's great but I have had to mix it about 50/50 with the original BMC white stamping polish to get it to even pick up on the silicone stamper pad. This mix gives easy stamping and great bright white colour.
