m83 Konadicure for small nails

Image
Hi, Remember my rising hearts konadicure ? I recreated it now with different colors & on smaller nails. What I got was awesome! I started with two coats of my peachy franken and a thin coat of Sequins Ruby Purple glitter above it. I stamped the rising hearts design from m83 image plate with Konad Special Black. Finally, I applied a clear top coat. What do you think?

Glitter Gal-Dark purple + m29

Image
Hi, Today I'll show you a pretty summer-holiday manicure. I created a sunset on a tropical island. I strted with two coats of Dark Purple holo. I applied a little piCture pOlish - Citrus to create the sunset effect using a needle. I applied Claire's Lonely/Loved on the tips of my nails. I used the palm tree design from m29 Konad plate and I stamped it with Special Black. Finally, I applied a clear top coat. This is how Dark Purple holo from Glitter Gal looks like, applied in two coats. This color is opaque after a single coat. It dries very fast. After I painted the second hand's nails, the first one's were already dried. Check out their web site , they have a lot of pretty shades and they ship internationally.

Mint franken

Image
Hi, Today I'll show you a pretty minty manicure. I started with two coats of a mint franken that I made. I stamped over it the design from A31 image plate from Chez Delaney with Special White. I applied a mauve rhinestone on the circle on each nail and finally, I applied a clear top coat. This is how my mint franken looks like. I created it using piCture pOlish - Marine and the Matte Dull White from Born Pretty . What do you think?
