Work has been pretty busy, and here I am going to do a quick post: My nail of the day: It is spring already?
Tools needed:
1. Base coat, nail color, top coat
2. Konad stamping tools
3. French tip stickers
I did not use a base color for french tip as I am having a problem of french tip stripping my base color and also leaving residue 🙁 Anyone knows how to apply french tip sticker to the base color without spoiling it? So, if you have noticed, my french tip is always with a naked bottom 🙁
When i have completed this, i felt that something was missing, missing the…ooohm! So…
I added a layer of glitters! 😀
This somehow reminds me of sakura.
Hope you enjoy this nail art! 🙂

When I do french tips, usually I apply a top coat on top of the base colour first, let it dry (really really dry!) then only stick on the stickers. Hope this might help
not sure, but your nails still look good either way! 🙂
PS: do mine do mine!! i’ll gladly be your guinea-pig! *wink*
so pretty! Hmm.. with the french tip stickers, I think you really have to let the base polish dry, like SUPER DRY before you’ll be able to stick the sticker on it 🙂
its beautiful.
i wish have it on me 🙁
The nails are so pretty!
very very pretty!! and not too complicated 🙂
Jessie: uh….so the keypoint is REALLY REALLY dry? 🙁
bee: if we have ample time, i can bring my stuff! 😀
Nikki: thats the thing, its so annoying having to wait for them to dry
LyNn: u can have it too! just need practice, and patience 😀 this is really easy compared to other drawing nail art
gio: thanks! 😀
Connie: yeah quite simple coz no need to hand-draw
You are getting so good at this! 😀
very girlish! But I like it without the shimmers more. 😛
It’s spring and sakura is really a suitable one. I’m working myself to get konad nail polishes… 😛
Tine: I guess its the practice 😀 but i am still bad at eye makeup! 🙁
Sue: thanks! i prefer the more glittery oohm!
Traclyn Yeoh: go girl! will be waiting for your konad nail art 😀 yeah no $$ to go see sakura, so at least i can see it from my nails
I’m blog hopping and saw your gorgeous nail that I had to comment. This is so gorgeous! 🙂
The design is sweet! Awesome 😀
Awe! Looks great! I always wanted to try the Konad nails design…
OK Ladies…hers is my secret to french tips>>> first. i usually freehand the tips (you dont have to) but anyhow, after painting tips (use your stickers as you have been) paint the BOTTOM 1/2 of your nail from the left to right. I usuallt hold my finger @ 90 from how i usually hold it. and then just paint the strokes as i would normally (but with my hand sideways…i end up painting from side to side not bottom to top.) does that make sense? Hard to explain…i’m gonna do a vidoe tutorial i i think one of these days on my blog. Hope it works!
BTW if you free hand a tip OVER a blush base…you kan use a konad stamp to COVER yout smile line to hide any areas you jacked up!
oh oh..forgot to mention…i am having a contest, win an entire Bkit from konad. enter to win @ my blog
