Stamping A Fine Impression
Nail stamping is a great way to permanently stamp your favorite designs on to your nails. It's also a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to nail polish, especially for those of us who are prone to smudging our manicures. The technique is fairly simple: find the nail design you want, soak the stamper in polish remover (or use a scrap piece of paper), then gently tap the stamper onto your nail bed.
The entire design can be "stamped" in this way without any additional work. However, if you want to remove the design after it has dried, we recommend using pure acetone or "nail polish remover". This will fairly easily remove the design, and the stamper can be safely washed in water afterwards. However, if you are not going to remove the design in any way, acetone is unnecessary and may damage your stamper.
You can also choose to add a clear top coat over your designs for protection against chipping. To do this, first completely soak your stamping stamper in pure acetone or nail polish remover. Then, while the stamper is still soaking, apply a thin layer of pure white acrylic based polish over it. Use a small brush or do one thin layer at a time (and keep adding layers until you get the thickness you like). Once the layers are dry, you can use the stamper to stamp designs on your nails. The beauty of this technique is that you don't have to worry about stamping too thickly or unevenly - once your nail polish layer is completely dry, the white acrylic base will be invisible. If you are going to add a clear top coat over everything, this base layer won't make much of a difference. However, if you decide not to use a top coat, the white base will protect your design from yellowing from exposure to air and light.
If you do not want to use a top coat, at least wait until the design has dried before submerging your hands in water. This will ensure that the white base does not get smudged. When everything is completely dry, you can choose to add a clear top coat for protection against chipping. If you are going to use a top coat, it's best to apply it before those last layers of white acrylic polish have dried.
There are many kinds of nails designs that can be stamped on your nails after following these steps. We have collected some of the most popular designs for you here. You can get resources on creating your own designs from online tutorials.
Flower stamping is incredibly simple, and looks beautiful too. Simply create a flower stamp in any way you like on a piece of paper or cardstock and stamp it onto your nails using the same method explained above. Then, fill in the petals of your design with clear acrylic. If you don't want to use a top coat, you can simply remove the paper backing and leave the acrylic peeking out.
Nail art is a popular way to decorate our nails. We love how cute it looks, but it's not always easy to get the perfect design every time. This is where stamping comes in super handy: use any kind of nail stamp you like (or make some up of your own!) and apply that to your nails. Once you have your design, simply soak a stamper in pure acetone and gently press the stamper onto your nail. The ink will transfer to your nails and you can stamp on the design again and again to achieve a variety of looks. If it's still not perfect, don't worry - just do it over!
Have fun with nail art!

Conclusion:
The first impression is the last impression. A stamp is an imprint of a seal or signet on wax, clay, paper, or some other solid substance. Usually it denotes identity and ownership. The word "stamp" started from "stamping". Stamping is a technique of marking an object by impressing it with a hard object. The most commonly used object in this impressing process is called a "stamp". Over the years, the meaning of stamp changed to include different things that could be marked upon such as information and impressions on paper, plastic film etc.
