I don't know if you have noticed yet but I am gradually getting more and more obsessed with nail art.
The other day I stumbled upon The Nailasaurus blog. You must check out how perfect this girls nails are, plus she has done a Wolverine design which is beyond awesome in my books!
Anyway, I was watching one of her vlogs and she mentioned nail stamping and Konad plates. I couldn't quite figure out how this worked so I Youtubed it to find out. I was immediately sold and hopped over to ebay to buy the necessary equipment.
You can see what I bought above. You can get this all from Amazon - follow the links below to see the cheapest I found.
I also spotted this Konad set which looks A-MAZING! If I could afford that I would be a happy girl!
And here are the results:
Pretty good hey? This was really my second go at it, although the first time was just messing about really. I love the design and once I got the hang of it they came out great. I did find that the designs were quite small, so it didn't quite cover my thumb nail, and you have to be quite precise on the others too. Also, I'm not sure if you are meant to clean the plate after every single application, because I found the design gradually deteriorated as I went along. I had to get Chris to clean it so that it was sharp again!
But all in all it was a thumbs up for Konad!

Oooh, looks fun! I'm so rubbish with nail stuff - habitual polish picker...are they well wearing?
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty good. I wore it for about a day with no top coat and it was absolutely fine. You have to be careful when you put the top coat on though as it will smudge, you need to make sure you don't go over the same bit more than once. With the top coat is lasted great for nearly a week!
