I had a hard time picking a color last night. I didn't have enough time to do the mani I was thinking of, (that I did tonight) so this was kind of a compromise, but I like the way it turned out. This is Barielle Two Timing:
Then I used Misa Ghetto Fabulous - my favorite gold for Konading - and a full nail design from image plate m56:
I hadn't used this design before, partly because unlike some of the other full nail designs, it doesn't have a perfect match that you can line up for double-stamping. But I found if I flipped it to stamp the opposite direction, instead of going end to end, that worked pretty well. When I have seams I want to hide I tend to put them towards the bottom ... here's an example, the nail that matched up best:
Also, by total coincidence since I did this mani last night, I got an email today from Barielle with this sale:
As if I needed more temptation on my no-buy LOL.
I have a new naked nails post coming soon, including a breakdown of my normal nail maintenance routine after several requests last time. I took some pics today but have more still to do so I'm not sure if the actual post will come this week or next, but it is on the way =)
Last thing, I'm putting up a quick poll regarding my YouTube content - please take a moment to vote =) I'm just running it for 1 day, to kind of test the waters & get a quick sample of what my readers & watchers want. I'll be discussing that once it's finished & the January book poll also, hopefully by the weekend. Thanks for reading (& voting!).

I love the konad! I'm a sucker for tone on tone nail-art!
ReplyDeleteI love it ! Those colors match perfectly together :)
ReplyDeleteYour nails look stunning!
ReplyDeleteI sense a vibe of middle east in the konad you put on.
That color looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful color! And the gold konad on top looks great. :)
