Sometimes all you need is a simple stamped design on your nails for a flawless mani, but sometimes you want to kick it up a notch. Reverse stamping allows you to add more color and dimension to your stamped designs, and it's easier than you'd think! Join Tiana for this week’s Maniology LIVE!

How to Reverse Stamp using the Stamper Head Technique: (Starts at 7:00)
1. (Using the stamping technique) pick up the design you'd like to paint.
2. Blot polish or polishes you're going to use to color in your design onto your Lotus Mat.
3. Using a detail brush, pick up the polish and color. Use a light dotting or dot and lightly dab technique to avoid smudging or re-wetting your already semi-dry stamped design.
** RECOMMENDED TIP: Do not overfill your designs will polish. If after your first paint your design is not as opaque as you'd like, wait for the existing polish to dry to a tacky finish and repeat steps 2-3.
** If you notice your the polish blots starting to get dry, chunky or stringy - add more polish. You want to paint with fresh, wet polish.
4. Continue steps 2-3 until the design is to your liking. Allow the stamped/reverse colored design is semi-dry or dry. While you wait, put on a cuticle protector, if you haven't already. (24:48)
5. Paint Sticky base coat to your nail and wait about 1 minute for the surface to get tacky.
6. Stamp your reverse colored design to your nail. Make sure the design is adhering to your nail by tapping on the parts that might the sticking up before moving on to step 8.
7. Using scissors, orange stick or cuticle nipper to trim the edges that are on the skin around the nail. This will help to make cuticle clean up much simpler and also allows all the excess design
to come off as you remove your cuticle protector.
8. Clean your cuticles with 100% acetone and clean up brush.
9. Finish your design with a Smudge Free top coat.
