KOTD: Leather and lace.

Another Konadicure for all the pink-hating readers of my blog! I think after this I've really earned my right to do pink Konadicures for ever and ever!!

Kidding! Maybe.





I'm a bit clumsy with my left hand so I ended up smudging the black Konad print a bit when I applied the topcoat :(

I absolutely love this Konadicure! Some Konadicures you just know while you're doing them that you'll like them, and others... ugh. The idea and reality turn out totally different.

I did it during the daytime (I usually do Konadicures at night) so I was able to take step-by-step photos of the different stages of my Konadicure. All step-by-step photos are before I cleaned up my nails so you can see the mess I make ^^

Step 1: Elianto Nail Color #33 as a base to cover up my discoloured nails and instead give it a natural peachy pink glow.

Step 2: Skin Food BR610 Coffee Jelly for the french tips with reinforcement rings... still looking very plain though.

Step 3: Next comes the Konad design. Elianto nail color #40 Twilight Zone (which Konads very vividly btw!) using a design from image plate M57.


Step 4: Last but not least, added tiny silver dots along the line of the french tip using a toothpick for a more glam look.



Step 5: Face Shop top coat as a finishing touch and then cleaned away all the excess.

Initially wanted to name it Bollywood Romance with Yawen in mind, but then decided against it because it's not really a good description of the Konadicure after all.

My inspirations for this Konadicure are these two Konadicures and nail art done by Konaddict and Preposterously's Nail Blog respectively.



Happy Konad-ing, peeps!


P/S: Super abusing the "small" font size in this post, lolol! Just bear with me :D
