KONAD TIME!

I recently ordered from Konad about 10 new plates and they finally came in yesterday! So last night when I did my nails, there were so many plates and designs to choose from I did one hand with one design and the other with another.

For the base I used Pure Ice - Tease. This is a magenta/pinkish color with lots of blueish/purple shimmer to it. The shimmer almost has a very fine sort of flakey look to it. This color was pretty sheer so I painted four coats. I think if my nails were longer I would have been able to see a visible nail line, but as it is now I HAVE no visible nail line :(


After topping the Pure Ice with Seche and letting it dry, I went to Konading my nails. I used the Zebra print for one hand and the fishnet print for the other. I used Konad Special Polish in black. Most of you know or have heard that this streaks. I thought I was gonna get one over on the polish though. I konaded my nails, leaving the top coat of seche off and then went tanning. SO this polish not only had time to dry completely but I am sure the tanning bed lights would help "cure" the nail polish. WRONG!! The "special polish" still streaked on me! I think from now on I will not use the special polish and stick to regular polish.





Besides all the streaking, I see this morning it looks like I have had this polish on for about a week. Look at all the tip wear on these babies! Guess I will just have to repaint my nails- hehehe!
