I don't have a huge amount of pinks and only one untried which was Above the Curve Desk Clear #11. This is a lovely pale pink with a subtle shimmer. It applied really well, with great coverage in 2 coats and no streakiness - perfect!
For coral I decided to try something new but I wasn't confident about doing it on both hands, so the right hand got stamping, the left hand got the experimenting!
For the right hand I stamped with hehe 040 (the wonderful fake watermarbling plate) and OPI My Chihuahua Bites. I was pretty impressed with the way the OPI stamped and I think it looked really pretty with the pale pink.
For the left hand I decided to have a try at dry marbling, so I used the same two polishes - in theory it would all be very co-ordinated! I painted a thick coat of the ATC and then added a couple of small blobs of OPI and swirled them around with a cocktail stick. I think I was a bit heavy handed as I moved too much base so you can see the nail peeping through in a few places but overall I think it was a reasonable first stab.
Finally, in another attempt to unify it all I stamped with hehe 040 and the OPI over the dry marbling. That looked quite pretty but the pictures did not really do it justice.
