I'm officially the queen of lame names =D Anyway, I hated yesterday's mani so much, that I had to change it. My friend Jeanette from the-swatchaholic has done a wonderful mani recently, inspired by MAC's Love Lace collection. OMG, it's exactly my taste! I liked it so much that it inspired me to do something similar. Although mine is not nearly as nice as hers, I still put a lot of effort to avoid ruining it =D And I guess I'm going to get MAC Light Affair, or it's dupe, Essie Body Language.
This mani is made of 4 coats of OPI Tickle My France-y, lace image from konad plate m37, special polish in black and freehanded french tips. The first image is taken with flash, but although the color is not correct, I like it because it looks so eerie =D
Without flash:
I even managed to stamp side-by-side =) I guess I'm proud of myself =D
It has been 18 days since I've started Barielle, and I guess my nails actually grew somehow slower. !How is this even possible? =) I'll continue using the product, but I honestly can't say it made my nails grow any faster. If I'm not terribly mistaken, this product is waste of money, growth-wise.
This is perfect. I ordered this plate a few days ago to do simmilar looks. Really great!
ReplyDeleteI think that's really beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThank you, my dears =)))) <3
ReplyDeleteThat is gorgeous!!! That mani is so classy and elegant!
ReplyDeleteThank you, gildedangel! Oh, how much time it consumed! I literally had to work as precisely as a surgeon! =D
ReplyDeleteWell done, Konad Queen. :) I love the lingerie spirit, it's very sexy. Tickle My France-y is one of my fav polish ever, a real go-to shade and I love it because it is so more naughty than it seems.
ReplyDeleteWhat a elegant mani! I really like this :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, guys =) Nathalie, I also think it's very chic and somehow, naughty =)
ReplyDeleteThank you Leanne and Nea =) <3
GORGEOUS!! *claps*
ReplyDeleteThanks =DD *blush*
ReplyDeleteOoohh!! SAXY! Good Job!
ReplyDeleteOMG I love this, I have this plate but am way too scared to use this design as I know I would never get it stamped side by side as you have done. Well done you!!! It looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteThis is soo gorgeous and delicate, plus I love that neutral!! have you sent that to ALU's Mannequin Hands?
ReplyDeleteI love this mani, it's so elegant! Tickle my Francey is one of my favourite polishes! I may have to test this mani!! Thank you xx
ReplyDeletethank you guys =) BabyD, I thought it would be impossible to line them up side by side, but my trick was to align the design parallel to the sides of the stamper. I stamped the thumb in the middle, then filled the sides with two additional stamps. I didn't dare to stamp the two halves, either!
ReplyDeleteBrooke, no, I didn't send my hands to ALU because I thought the design would be too much =) If I thought of taking a photo before stamping, maybe I could =))
Thank you Danica, Diva's Polish and Thess =)))
So gorgeous Deniz! Now you make we want to get both m37 and Tickle My France-y! :D
ReplyDeleteI had to work like a surgeon on my Lace manicure too. It os so much work to get the lace motifs right on the nail. I had to redo three nails but I just love classy looks like cremes with Lace motifs. :)
*continues to stare at your stunning konadicure*
Thank you, Jeanette! I feel the same for your nails! I'm still not over your konadicure! =DDD Today I'm going to visit MAC to see if they have Light Affair =) Oh, the stamping was really some piece of work, I can't imagine doing the same with metallics =) <3
ReplyDeleteAs usual it is completed, I like very much it is simple and elegant
ReplyDeleteyou have outdone yourself, this is too lovely!
ReplyDeleteThank you pascale and charis <3
ReplyDeleteThey look really gorgeous! Maybe I have to check that konad plate too ^_^
ReplyDeleteAww thank you =))) You should def. check that plate, that design is worth it on its own!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, such a classy look! Love the color combo.
