Konad Nail Art + Sponge Art.

Wednesday, November 7th, 2007

hey people! ever heard of Konad? you really gotta try, one day I was surfing the net and I found these really pretty nail art stuff. I am not sure if I leave anything out in this tutorial but I hope you’d find it useful =D.

wanna learn how to do? but first, you gotta have the stuff, not many, just a few. (just a little from what I know, kind of satisfies me, don’t know about you, and I am not an expert =X.)

Stuff: nail file, nail scraper, 2 nail polish of your choice, base coat, faux diamond.
Konad stuff: special polish of your choice, image plate, plate scraper, stamper.

STEP ONE: FILE YOUR NAIL.

STEP TWO: SCRAPE AWAY ACCESS SKIN ON NAIL *to make nail polish last longer*

STEP THREE: APPLY BASE COAT

STEP FOUR: APPLY BASE COLOR AFTER BASE COAT DRIED. ( I used a different brand as it is much cheaper. )

STEP FIVE: SPONGE.
you can simply sponge on any area you like =)

STEP SIX: KONAD STAMP ART.
you must use a konad special polish for it on the image plate. =)konad special nail polish

STEP SEVEN: APPLY TOP COAT.
before top coat dries, put the faux diamond on the place you think is suitable.

STEP EIGHT: wait for it to dry and VIOLA!

ALWAYS REMEMBER: wait for nail polish to dry before going to the next step.

It’s always the best to do the konad stamping art the next day for best results. It is good because if you stamped wrongly you can lightly use a cotton with some nail polish remover and remove the part you stamped wrongly and the base color won’t come out so easily.

Where to buy?
1. you can order it directly from Konad
2. if you’re living in KL, Konad is sold in One Utama, the same floor with pets wonderland and Sungei Wang, some accessory shop near Esquire Kitchen. =)
