Hi
I have searched the thread but wanted to ask also, what is the best top coat what ever I use smudges unless its shellac top coat but I don't always want to seal and cure I get bored easily.
Ive tired konad top coat, lumos and seche vite, I do try and float but always end up with a slight smudge.

also which white is recommended for stamping over black, I have found the konad white pearl to not be opaque enough any other suggestions?

Thanks

You need quite a bit on your brush and to glide the top coat over the nail, using as few stokes as possible. Seche Vite is good.

Over black silver or gold is great. Barry M Foil Effects work really well. I've also used Staregazer metalic polishes. The Konad Gold & Silver are shall we say a little 'subtle'!

Yes I have found the Barry M Foil effects gold and silver to be very good.
Just hoping I can find a white that gives the same kind of opaque look over black.

Konad white is excellent

I use lumos top coat and I've never had problems with it dragging the stamped image but I really load my brush up.

As for white I use the konad white. IRS a tip ex white so perfect over black x

 

[dudeymel]

I know konad have their own polishes but ive noticed a few comments about ppl using different brands and finding it better, would someone be able to talk me through which polishes wrk best so I dont end up with lots that dont work x
