xD if you ever have another chance to buy them get some extras. i will TOTALLY buy them from you!
haha and i love your nail art work!

oh my, i cant wait to buy those art pens thingy lol, i asked my family in vietnam and they know those pens *thanks lord*, im so gonna buy everything hahahaha

They're gorgeous!

thats kool! you should ask them to buy fake nails so you can practise and make your own design

thanks stardust

HEYYYYYYYYYYYYY

everyone

so I went to Claire's and got their fake nails
and then I got their rhinestones (for cell phones though)
aand I decided to "design" my own fake nails (with what I got + what I have)

outcome:

^ Doesn't look good at all with those rhinestones on. IMO.

^ yeah I think it would look prettier without rhinestones too. but it's really good

^^^ Haha, what a neat little project.

yeah i personally think that it would look nicer if the rhinestones are smaller or a colour that goes with the pink or black.

heres a new design from me

Hey girls. If I were to get fake nails at a salon, how long would they last?

^ on average, about 2 weeks.

mine last 1 week before it looks ugly because my nails grow out really fast :[

anyone sells those pens here?!

Are nail pens/nail brushes (thin) only available in salons?
Seems like they're really popular in vietnam stores?

yea please tell XD
i'd like to buy some~

i'm going to starting this weekend ^^

^ will you be selling dotters too ?
or does anybody know if anyone is selling dotters ? brand new please =]

YAY darling <333
cant wait. XD

These nail art pens create 3D designs, not plain ones




Buy them here!

omg i wanna buy those so badly ^^^^^
t.t
anyways these nail art pens.. their brushes are very thin right?
just use them like a pen? XD

Actually they're squeeze tubes, so when you squeeze it out it makes 3D designs and not flat ones.
Yes, you can use them like pens
I'm going to get the brush pen ones soon, just not yet.. I want to try them out before selling them so I can make sure they're good products ^^

^ lolz~! heyyyy i was jus on ur selling thread XDD

^ i did my nails =) such an amateur, i know. if you analyze it closely, you could see how i messed up with the stripes x(

woa i love your nails.
haha uniqe designs~
aah those are your real nails right?
dang so nice~

yep..those are the ones i got.

they dry really slow..but they're really sturdy so the 3d designs stick..

but i have the 12 pen set..

they're also really messy.,so you have to be careful on using them..

here's my most recent design.. probably 2 weeks ago.



i really like kana's nail designs..i've been taking ideas from it..

but they're also really hard...i really like the crown designs.

=) yes they are my real nails and thanks

gosh. everyone has beautiful nails~!!! How do you guys get them so long? omg. mine take like a month to get long.. but then i always break one and have to start all over again . anyways.. i was bored this morning so i did this with my konad thing .



opinions?

^ I like your nails.. it's simple and the design looks really cute...

haha the designs are so cute!
great job XD

they're really unique and nice i like them

^ thank you

& Angel_luvusa that's skill ! xD

ive just done a new set because i was bored, lol


and i just added lil flowers at the tip

hey!
i have the konad thingy... kit...
but how do u do it so perfectly??
im having a hard time with mine... T_______T
tips pleasE!! thanks!!

doing nails are addicting especially if you have a lot of time on your hands. i really like how girls in japan do their nails...it's a lot of colors and jewels...like a fashion show on your fingers. ^-^ do any of you know where i can go to get my nails done in a japanese way? trying to do them by myself gets very frustrating.

^ the heart nail and the last one are so PRETTY!

haha yeah. mine used to mess up all the time too.. like it'd go on ok and then smear when i put the top coat over it i always got mad. but i learned that after you put it on wait like 10 minutes before putting on the top coat.. And get a good amount of top coat on the nail brush so that the brush doesn't touch the design too much (does that make sense haha?) mmh and make sure to let the top coat dry some with your hand flat.. or else it'll smear xD. whew. hope that helps some. lemme know if i can help with nething else

second to last one and last one are very pretty XD
<3jaejoong OMG i love your nails XD

this thread inspired me to try painting my nails

sooo first time in my whole 16 years of life... tada?



tacky ain't it? notice the polish that "travelled" onto my finger somehow lol


haha anyway... i have a question... when i put the top coat on.. it made the colours run... is it cause it the polish isn't dry enough yet or is this just bad top coat stuff? (from daiso lol)... well better question... how "dry" is dry enough to put on top coat? cause i put it on when if i touched the polish it feels completly dry and i can't smear it around or anything

okay first things first

1. I love your nails xD so pretty +__+

aaand
as for the top coat, it's probably because the nail polish wasn't dry enough
depending on what kind of nail polish you're using, you should wait at least 2-4 minutes before applying the next coat of coloring
after you think it's done drying, gently tap your nail to check if anything comes off. If your fingerprint appears on the nail polish, it means it's not really completely dry

then I guess you'd apply the new coat? @.@

Just wanted to take a quick survey:

How many of you have gotten acrylic or gel sets done to your nails?
Which do you prefer?

And I was just browsing around some Japanese nail salon sites and apparently, Cal gel nails are the biggest new thing there now.
http://www.calbrookcalifornia.com/calgel.htm


Have any of you guys heard about this or got it done before? I'm wondering how good they are, because supposedly, you can lengthen your nail (like acrylic applications), but Calgel won't hurt your nail (i.e. make them yellow and weaker after you remove them.)

heart nails ^^
they look so cute

I think a great way is to take your nails on both hands and gently touch them to each other, like you're doing that fobby heart sign. If you feel it stick, then it's not dry enough yet. It depends on the polish, of course...fast-dry polishes can yellow your nails. Unless you have those salon fans, you could be waiting a while. For me, I wait 10-15, sometimes 20min for a layer to dry, just to make sure. When I do manicures on myself, I paint the last layer, let it dry overnight [go to sleep], then do topcoat in the morning [topcoat dries a lot faster]. That way I avoid bubbles forming too, since that seems to happen to me when I have lots of layers of undry polish going on. And when I shower later, the warm water makes removing all the excess on my skin a lot easier.

If someone has a better procedure, do share. ^^;;

oh... hmm... how about when u scrape off the excess polish from the plate and "attempt" to get the whole design on the stamper... it's doesn't always transfer fully to the stamper... T_________T what to do??

I think it's because your taking to long to scrape it and stamp it. but it's hard to do it so fast >_< Mine usually come off with part of the design missing too lol. sucks

oooh...so it's kinda normal.......
hehehe
coz the design u did looked perfecto~!!
wow.. so it's normal~~~
i'm so happy~~ ^^
i thought i was some dumbo who can't do it right~~
hahaha

I'd like to contribute I was bored that time and this thread made me want to paint my nails

WOW. I should buy some more nail polish and acceseries. BLAH, bad thing is that, my school doesn't allow nail polish >_<"
&& as for patters and all, do yous use those thing stick nail polish thingy?! Oh yeah, is it hard to do it on the right hand, because your mostly right handed or are do yous get use to having to paint both hands, either right or left nothing really matters?

Oh that set is absolutely adorable!
