Roses are Red

I haven't done much konadicures with a white background so in order to make the red design pop out more, I've decided to try it. I've used Sally Hansen Insta Dri in White (Not sure about the actual name color since I threw the bottle away already.) The plate I've used for this is Konad Plate M65. Enjoy!

I'll be posting two more rose designs in the following days! Look out for that!

Retro Green with Envy

The polish I've used with this one is also named Green with Envy. It's funny how they're both named the same but they're completely different colors. This konadicure has gotten a lot of attention from other people even strangers.

It's vain but whenever I'm driving, I'd be looking at this because it's just so pretty. My camera phone doesn't do it justice.

I've used:
1. Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Green with Envy
2. Plate M65

Green with envy

This is another one of my past konadicures. Here, I've used one of my first nail polishes, Rimmel Green with Envy along with Konad plate m64.

I ordered some large fauxnads off ebay and I hope to get them in two weeks. I'm really excited to make some more designs with those. I also used my Canon camera's color accent function.

Ai Love the Lime Light

As promised, here's one of my Konadicures. This is pronounced Ai meaning Love in Japanese, hence the title.

As you can see, this was pretty rushed (and super simple) because I was going somewhere when my nail polish chipped and so I decided to just make a new one.

The design smeared a little and the stamp is all over the place. But that effect was to my advantage because people thought that I actually wrote them since I'm studying Japanese.

This color is actually a lot brighter and flatter. It ended up like this because of the top coat and the smearing.

I used:
1. China Glaze in Lime Light
2. Plate M8



For fun, I've also written some Kanji. Looking at it again makes me cringe because my penmanship has never been good. I'd rather type than write any day.

Flower Garden

I usually have a general idea of what I want to do when I begin doing my nails but this time, I just came up with this as I went along, adding one element after another. I think this is one of my favorite designs. It was a little hard to add the flowers because I'm not so used to it plus two of the flowers fell out the next day. Hope you like it!





I used:

1. China Glaze's Sexy in the City
2. Plate M56
3. Plate C02
4. Flower rhinestone

Part of Your World

I was listening to some Disney theme songs and I was inspired to do a mermaid design. I didn't have any other blue aside from this so this was my ocean and I used a white for my sky.

I used:
1. China Glaze's For Audrey
2. Plate M56
3. Plate B01

Double R

'Nading is so much fun and now I can no longer imagine having bare nails. My sister got me some dollarama rhinestones and so I here's my current konadicure. I apologize though because this was rushed and so I didn't get the base done well enough.

Ribbons and Rhinestone
1. China glaze in Spontaneous
2. Plate 56

Sister's nails

My sister is super clumsy so I really hate it when she goes through my stash, so I did her nails.

She's 18 but her nails are really tiny, so this design worked really well. My inspiration was her purple top.

I used:
1. China glaze in Spontaneous
2. Plate 71

"Race Car" Pink

I couldn't stand having long nails any longer, so I clipped them even further and now I can type with ease. I relly love this pink color but it's not as opaque as I hoped it would be. Doesn't this design remind you of something that a race car girl might wear? It's quite subtle but there's a little flower at the bottom.

I used:
1. Fingerpaint in Rose Patina
2. Plate M56
3. Plate B01
4. China Glaze in Poetic

Konad Haul

I ordered from OC Nail Art and it came in just about 10 days! I'm really happy. I got all these for about $70 cad. Here's the stuff I got.

1. Two top coats
2. Black special polish
3. White special polish
4. Double sided stamper with scraper
5. M19
6. M57
7. M56
8. M64
9. M65
10. M71

Of course I immediately played with them. I think I swatch almost everything and I gotta say that I love the lace patterns. I'll be posting some more designs!

For Audrey

Here's another Konadicure. I've gotten a lot of compliments with this one but do excuse the cuticles.

I used:

1. China Glaze's For Audrey
2. Green Special Konad
3. Sally Hansen Insta-Dri's Whirlwind White
4. Plate M21

Konadicure of the day

It's been such a long time since I've posted because I've been obsessing about something else aside from makeup. Plus I also translate dramas in my almost non-existent free time.

Anyway, I've been getting into nail polish again and when I was at the States, I was introduced to Konad. I bought the $45 set and I've been a fan since then. I ordered a few more stuff from ocnailart.com and hopefully it'll come by next week.

This is one of my first Konad nail arts.

I forgot what polish this is, but I think it was ELF (Eyes Lips Face). I used the red and green Konad special polish with plate M4.

I'll be uploading some more pictures in the next few days.
