Manicure: O.P.I. A-Taupe The Space Needle swatch and stamping

 

O.P.I.'s A-Taupe The Space Needle is one of my favourite taupes. It's so opaque and creamy in just one coat (I know, there is a sheer patch on the index finger).

Meanwhile, for those who came in late, my Konad stamper is still missing. And, being on a spending ban till the day after tomorrow, I haven't ordered another. So I tried out one of the easier-looking plates with a fancy oval eraser. I can never use the eraser again and the stamping looks horrendous. A stamper is the first thing I'm going to buy on March 16. On the bright side, with enough experimentation, I think I can get an eraser to work with the stamping.
