Lina Nail Art Supplies Stamping Plates Featuring the Blank Image to Create Gradients

*Press Samples

Hi!

I hope you're having a great day! Today I received 2 new plates from Lina Nail Art Supplies.   However I have never posted about Lina Nail Art Supplies on my Blog, so I decided to show you all my Lina Nail Art plates in this post.  I am trying my best to blog more this year. I hope you enjoy!

In this post I will be featuring their brand new plate Make Your Mark 3, which features a fun and cool image.  It's a blank image to create gradients.  Can you image... you can create a gradient without a sponge... fun right?! Amazing! You can see how it's done, down below, on my second YouTube video.

Lina Nail Art Supplies is located in New Orleans, Louisiana.  They are a fairly new Indie nail stamping brand, they started in October 2016, and have been creating quite a buzz in the nail stamping community.  Their plates feature unique images and they stamp beautifully.  

More Quick Facts:

1.  Stainless Steel Plates

2.  Plate size: 9.5 x 14.5 cm

3.  Sticker backing with their logo.

4.  Full nail image size: 1.7 x 2.2 cm

5.  Transparent protective film to protect plates.  Don't forget to remove them before nail stamping.

6.  Comes in a cute cardboard sleeve to protect and store them.

This is my first YouTube Review. October 2016:
*First press release.

In this review I show and swatch these plates:

Feeling Shapely! 02

In Motion 02

Make Your Mark 02

Here is My NEW YouTube Review Featuring Their New Plates January 2017: 

*This one features Make Your Mark 03.

In this review I show and swatch these 2 NEW plates:

All About Love 01

Make Your Mark 03

Make Your Mark 03 has a special feature I mentioned in my YouTube Video above.  You can create beautiful gradients with it!  Gradients without using a sponge!  Super fun idea.  It definitely takes a lot of practice, but I won't give up until I have mastered it! :)

Gradient Tips Using The Blank Image:

1.  Apply polish completely over the image.
2. Gently swipe.  Try not to apply too much pressure, or you will remove polish from the plate.
3. Swipe a few times to blend the colors together.
4. Practice, Practice and Practice! I am still practicing! lol
5. Have fun! Try out a lot of color combinations! :)

Here are two manicures I created using the new Make Your Mark 03 plate:

*I used the gradient feature in both manicures.

Base colors: Colorina HD Magnetic Silver, Bettina Black Hole & Galaxy. 

Stamping polish: Messy Mansion Sterling

Base Colors: B.Loves Plates/Colour Alike B a Fuchsia Flash, 

B. an Electric Orange & B.a Yellow Glow.

Stamping Polishes: Messy Mansion Blue You a Kiss and Colorina Black.

As you can see these plates stamp beautifully. They are high quality plates. Superb etching & Fun images for everyone. Check out their social medias, and follow them, they have so many plates to choose from.

Bettina Cosmetics Galaxy Collection... Do They Samp?

*Purchased by me.

Hi everyone!

I hope you're having a great day!

Today I will be showing you my latest purchase.  I've been a very good girl because I haven't purchase polish in a long time. :) However I couldn't control myself and got all the shades from Bettina's Galaxy Collection.  They are super opaque, and I thought, could they stamp? That was my excuse for purchasing them... hahaha Plus I thought they would be super gorgeous as a base.  Let's take a look at them.

1.Bettina Comet

Nude shade packed with silver metallic shimmer.

For this swatch I stamped with Bettina Galaxy, which is also from this collection.

Stamping plate: Bundle Monster & Nailstamp4fun Collab plate.

2.  Bettina Milky Way

Silver metallic shade with a hint of lavender.

Stamping plate: Lina's Nail Art Supplies Make Your Mark 02

Stamping polish: Messy Mansion Carbon

I also used Morgan Taylor's Chrome Polishes to fill in the design.

3.  Bettina Cosmos 

Pink Metallic shade with a foil finish.

I stamped with Bettina Black Hole, which is also from this collection.

Stamping plate: Lina Nail Art Supplies Make Your Mark 02.

4. Bettina Supernova

Copper Metallic shade.

Stamping plate: Curali Nail Stamping 12.

Stamping polish: Messy Mansion Chalk

5.  Bettina Galaxy

Navy Blue metallic shade with a foil finish.

I stamped with Bettina Milky Way, which is also from this collection.

Stamping plate: Curali Nail Stamping 004.

6.  Bettina Black Hole

Black shade packed with silver metallic shimmers.

Stamping plate: Bundle Monster Basic Instinct.

Stamping polish: Messy Mansion Sterling.

Here is my YouTube Review:

In the video I swatch each color and also test to see if they stamp.  These polishes are super opaque and almost all of them are one-coaters.  They all applied smoothly.

Do they stamp? Yes they do! Great Bonus!  

Right to left:

Comet, Milky Way, Cosmos, Supernova, Galaxy and Black Hole.

My favorites have to be Galaxy and Black hole.  So if you live in Puerto Rico, Florida, or can purchase online, definitely grab them! Bettina Cosmetics is a brand from my beautiful island of Puerto Rico.  They offer so many beautiful colors at a great price.  If you have any questions about the brand, you can contact them below.  I am not affiliate with the company.
