Orly Androgynie with Stars

I hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday! Today, I'm combining Stamping Sunday over on Adventures In Stamping and the Monday Nail Art Challenge on Polish-aholics Anonymous. The themes were "A Plate Ending in 4" and "Sun/Moon/Stars" respectively.

I wish so much that Orly Androgynie could be as pretty on the nail as it is in the bottle. The glitter sinks to the bottom or gets stuck on the sides. Its rather disappointing. I heard that if you turn the bottle upside down, you get more glitters on the brush. I tried that for a few hours before using it. More glitter did make it to the brush for the first layer on my thumb, but sunk right back to the bottom. I'm going to experiment and swatch again in the near future. With all that being said, the application was good. It was opaque in two coats.

Using Konad Special Polish Yellow and plate BM14, I stamped yellow stars on each of my nails. I had a little trouble getting the whole image every time. But I'm by no means a stamping pro, so I'm hoping its just that I need more practice.

Orly Androgynie is part of the Holiday Soireé Collection. Some stores may have stock left (it will be on clearance), if not, it retails for $6-8 various places online. Konad Special Polish (for stamping) retails for $6.80 on their website.
