Poison Control

I got a great gift certificate to OC Nail Art from my brother for Christmas to increase my Konad supply and am excited to try out my haul. I have only ever bought one "special nail polish" for Konad stamping before; it's blue and I rarely use it. However, I thought it was time to invest in black and white so I could really get some opaque stampings in those shades. I have to say, it really paid off. These images are so clean and crisp--especially the white on black. I have had great luck with OC Nail Art for Konad--it's located in the US. I ordered Monday and got my plates and polishes today in the mail! If you get the chance, check out their website!

Look how clean and clear!

I painted the black nails with three coats of Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Midnight In NY, the white nails are three coats China Glaze White on White and one coat of Orly Winter Wonderland. I used Konad Plate m28 and special polishes in White and Black and Zoya Lisa for my thumbs. I used two coats of Seche Vite on top.

Golden Stripe

Ok, so the title isn't that exciting, but I am posting a manicure that is no longer on my nails in order to get it to you, so I'm not using all of my creative juices. Getting into the swing of things here in the new year has been hard. So this is gonna be quick so I can get down to the business of catching you up!

I painted three coats of Zoya Crystal and used Konad plate m57 with Orly Luxe. I then filled in with a fine brush and Luxe the gold stripe and added some glitter with LA Splash Cosmetics and Golden Egg. I used one coat of Seche Vite to finish with the shine!

Easy Does It

Short nails call for simple design.  I haven't fully highlighted this color I bought a while back from the China Glaze Vintage Vixen Collection and thought it was a good color for short nails.  I think the pictures capture the microfine golden hue in the brown.  It's very pretty.  

I coated three coats of Ingrid.  I then used a dotting tool and colors in Zoya Sarah and Crystal with Seche Vite as the top coat.

Just A Spoonful Of Glitter

I am behind on posting and owe you some manicures!  I had fun doing Halloween themed nails, but I have been patiently waiting to try my new Zoya polishes from their Fire and Ice collection.  So both of these manicures focus on two of those colors.  I love them so much and they really are awesome and complex sparkle/foil/glitter polishes.  So the best way to enhance the sparkle is with more GLITTER!
