Ethnic print stamping with MoYou Explorer plate 5 and Barry M Lychee

I love ethnic prints so I was really excited to get MoYou Explorer collection plate number 5. This is an allover pattern plate, which are just brilliant for longer nails. I'd been thinking about trying Barry M's Gelly Nail Paint in Lychee for stamping for a while, and this was a perfect test for it! Lychee stamped wonderfully over this teal base - it's already a firm favourite nail art polish of mine; I've used it as a base, for dots, freehand nail art, watermarbling and tape!

I used the geometric section of the plate in the bottom right corner and stamped at different angles on each nail to get this variety of patterning. The last couple of pictures are with a matte topcoat that has worn a bit 'satiny' after a day or so.......... but I like the effect this gives the stamping!

The base for this mani is Binky London Parsons Green and Paris Pearl, which I reviewed here (that post includes some stamping with other polishes from this same plate too). I purchased my Barry M Lychee from my local Boots and the MoYou plate direct from MoYou.

  1. Wow that is really cool looking. I love everything about this mani. I am intrigued by those full design MoYou plates but I haven't actually pulled the trigger on them yet.
