Mystic Moth Mani - Nail Art
This is part 2 of my recent Maniology Haul where I use a nail stamping plate that I got some other time...Anesayart Celestial Wings (M364). After using this plate, I think the little arched window graphics with the flat bottom would work better if you have square nails. It's also just a tiny bit big. I should probably try to figure out how to work a shrinking stamper.

      I'm using a stamper that seems to be a dupe of the Maniology Ice Cube Stamper that I got on Ali Express. s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DmxOwQj If you like moths, any of the Anesayart plates would be good. The quality is very consistent, so it really depends on your style. If I could only have one plate...hmm...I can't even decide. Probably something with abstract swirls or flowers.

At some other DG that's way out of my way (we were on the way back from ComicCon), my son's best friend asked if they had any light blue and said he was thinking of trying nail polish, so I bought him the one plain light blue they had. They also had a different light blue LAC jelly that I bought for myself. I showed it to my husband when we were all back in the car and the kid was like "They had light blue glitter?!!" and I gave him that too. So now I'm still looking for that other light blue jelly.

    Update: These brushes fit Moonshine Mani's caps, although they are a little short. Also, the link in the description has been showing out of stock. If you search for "nail polish replacement brushes" the right thing should show up in the results. Sometimes, the product description says it's 5.5 cm long. I ordered a box of those because they looked exactly like the brushes I already have and they are, indeed, exactly like what I have...3.9cm long.

Thankfully, there are many more peel-off options today than in the past, so even if UNT (or HT) aren't for you, at least there are other choices now.

    Wow - that's awesome! I'm a new sub, and in one of your videos you mentioned how your nail art isn't always the best. Well, based on this alone, I'd say you've officially graduated to the next level!! (And it looks like the next vid of your May Flower Moon Nails is going to be even more amazing!!!)

      Thank you so much for subscribing, commenting, and for the kind words! I'm Ok at the technical aspects of nail stamping. After that, it's like a coloring book. It's the color combinations that give me trouble.

    Hey, thanks for sharing. This collection is new to me, but I haven't had Orly polishes on my radar at all so not a surprise. lol You definitely can pull these colors off...me not so much. No shame in starting to appreciate purples. I'm still not a major fan of the color myself, but I am admittedly starting to enjoy purples with stuff going on. :)

      @@nerdlovesnails The packing has been tedious. It's my own fault I have too much stuff. Stuff my kids left behind when they moved out. My grandkid has stuff here too. I've been trying to tackle room by room, but it's total chaos right now. I focused on my kitchen today and I'm hopeful tomorrow it will be finished up. Than I can target the laundry area. I've been downsizing and it's getting easier. I didn't expect this to be so emotional, but it has been...not that I'm not welcoming this change...it's time. :) Health wise I'm doing better this week.

    I have most of this collection or else I'd already be over on Orly's site snapping it up -- I really love the polishes I have, and I suggest anyone who's been on the fence, go for it at this SUPER low price!! Also, what is that polish you had on at the very beginning of the video? It's stunning!!

      @@nerdlovesnails Yes, I agree!! That's what I told myself when I bought too many magnetics last month in PPU 😆 But some days you just have extra time and you want to play with your polishes, so that's when I plan on using my magnetics. That way I'm not trying to rush the magnet process and really just holding that there for a while and trying to get the best results. 😀

    I'm curious -- what was the total amount you ultimately spent when you did your AliExpress order? I'm primarily looking to learn more about what to expect in terms of additional expenses incurred to have international shipments cross our border here in the US. Thanks.

      Checking my order history, I paid the following. Subtotal $3.68 Shipping $2.19 Tax $0.35 Total $6.22 There were no fees applied by any federal, state, or local agency in the US.

      @@nerdlovesnails Thanks for sharing. Honestly, I simply don't understand our border rules (not immigration...just for shopping: duties, taxes, whatever). I'm a researcher by nature, I like to find the answers for myself if at all possible, but I read on this topic till my brain was hurting back when Clionadh Cosmetics had their recent sale. The more I read, the more confused I got, so I finally looked up the number for my local office of CBP and called a REAL LIVE HUMAN!! (I know, shocking!) I ended up speaking to two different people and while the more senior of them finally said I was unlikely to be hit with anything based on the facts I provided to him, he still made it clear that there could be variables which could change that. <ugh> I've done some work for the IRS and I thought that was THE most intentionally convoluted & screwed up system we have here, but I've come to change my tune after my little foray into trying to understand the CBP process!!
