Konad Hounds tooth

I love this image plate and the houndstooth design has to be one of my faves!!! I love to do different color combos but this combo has to be my all time favorite so far!!!

1st layer: Base coat
2nd layer: Sephora by OPI Read My Palm
3rd layer: Konad Princess Polish in Deep Jungle with image plate m63
4th layer: (Index finger only) Konad special polish in Pastel Green with image plate m71



French Tips using Konad

I was so excited when I got my Konad French Tip plates, then I do my french tips for the first time and they came out horrible!!! It took some practice to get the allignment correct but once I got that down I would have to do two to three layers to get it opaque.

What I learned was that if you apply a nail polish (I usually use a pale pink but clear or any color nail polish works) and then apply the french tip with the konad the special nail polish has something to stick to.

Also another tip is if you want to add a lighter color on top of a darker color french tip apply a clear coat before adding your french tip design ( The lighter design will bleed through to the darker color ruining your design)

So in the end you are saving time and your special nail polish

Nails of the Day ~ Pink Polka Dots & Lime Green French Tip

So I wanted to share what I am wearing on my nails today. I did a pink polka dot with a lime green french tip. I used the Konad stamping system for the polka dots with a hot pink special nail polish. The green is from Sally Hansen in their Xtreme Wear in the color Green with Envy. I used OPI base and top coat.
