I have been waiting to play around with this plate for a while and I was so excited to finally get it! This plate from Beauty Big Bangs is letter/writing themed and I love it!

It has a variety of styles of lettering, including the full alphabet in bold capital letters which are great for reserve stamping! This is the first plate I've owned with this much lettering so I have loved using it. As well as the individual letters, there are several full nail sized design featuring lettering and a few smaller designs with different words and phrases.

Outside of my nail stuff, I'm a writer, so I love anything related to writing, words, letters, etc! This plate is definitely a favourite of mine now.

Today I have swatches of three of Beauty Big Bangs' newest stamping polish shades. They release six new shades in total and I was super excited because I really like Beauty Big Bangs' stamping polishes.

Lemon Yellow

While the name is Lemon, I'd consider it more of a mustard shade of yellow — although it is brighter over a white base than when on its own. I love yellow polishes and this is no exception. This is a very different shade from their previous yellow stamping polish (which is light and brighter). This polish will look lovely as a base for fall/autumn nails.

My swatch is two coats, no top coat — although if you use thinner coats, or have longer nails, you may need three coats. This polish dries with a much glossier finish that a lot of other Beauty Big Bangs' stamping polish.

This polish stamps great over white and other light shades. Although it isn't as opaque over darker colours.

Fruit Orange

This is the first orange stamping polish I've owned — how have I gone this long without an orange?! It's bright and vibrant, perfect for summer.

My swatch is two coats, no top coat. Like Lemon Yellow, it dries with a glossy finish and is a beautiful orange shade. Also like Lemon Yellow, this shade is perfect for stamping over white and lighter shades, but doesn't show up quite as opaque over some darker colours.

I plan on using this polish a lot around Halloween this year!

Peacock Blue

I am obsessed with the polish! I love teal shades and this is the first dark teal stamping polish I've owned. It's perfect for all year round and is dark and opaque which makes it a great choice for the outline of designs if you're reverse stamping!

My swatch is two coats, no top coat. This polish dries duller — which is the most common finish for stamping polishes from Beauty Big Bangs.

Out of the three, this is definitely my favourite!

I'm hoping to try the other three newer shades of Beauty Big Bangs' stamping polishes soon too!

I love this plate! It includes seven full-size nail designs, which are pattern themed as well as many smaller designs of flowers, plants, birds, and insects. I think all of the pattern designs are beautiful and the smaller designs are great for reverse stamping and can be put with the patterns to create really fun manis.

[GIFTED FROM BEAUTY BIG BANG]

I really enjoy using Beauty Big Bang's stamping polishes. I've tried a few now and I am always impressed with the result. I decided to try the red and grey stamping polishes next and, like previous stamping polishes from Beauty Big Bang, I love them. The formula on both is great, though slightly different from each other. When used as a stamping polish they both work awesome, they are opaque and stamp clearly (the red looks best stamped on lighter base shades). 

When used as regular polishes the grey is opaque in one coat and like the others I've tried does dry a tad dull (so I recommend top coat). It is a cool-toned medium grey. The red needed two coats, but dries glossy instead of dull. It is a bright, vibrant red. The grey different leave any staining on my skin or nail, but the red, like pretty much all red polishes, does stain so definitely use a base coat and liquid latex when using it. The red would be a great shade to use for Christmas and Valentine's designs.
