sorry the pic is mad blurry..
but i did them myself with a creamy pink and gold strips?
*my real nails

omgg how the freak do you grow them out so nicely? T-T

here my nail

oh everyone has such pretty girly nails, i want

miss adorablexd

How'd you do the blue/green sparkles? I really like the effect!
& how'd you get the rhinestone to stick?

ps, hello allison!

Your nails are TOO cute! I love them!! I especially love the blue one!
Did you do the tips blue and then use glitter to gradient?


Well, for me, I prolly do it different than everyone else.
But first, when i take the nail polish brush, I brush it against the side of the nail polish,
like before you take it out. On the little circle part before it comes out, and
I get it so that there are very very few glitter left on the brush and then
just paint my nails 2/3 the way, leaving the 1/3 on the bottom blank.
It should be real subtle right there. Then I take more nail polish
and put a ton on in the top and then gradually towards the middle.
Both the nail polish that I have was able to let me do that. They were both
real sparkly.
I'm not sure on how everyone else does it, but that is just how I do it.
I sometimes take a q-tip and dip it in nail polish remover and
lightly dab the places that have too much polish.
I don't know if that makes any sense, but if you need me to do a video,
I'm pretty sure I can when I have the time. Just ask.
Hope that helped!



You should try a topcoat? I'm a swimmer and during swim season, I can never
have nail polish because they chip off so fast.
But using topcoat usually helps. My toes stay on longer.
But for me, I usually just let them stay on until I feel like doing my nails again. ^^

HAHA XD ^^
my uncle ( well i call him uncle ) got it for me
he works at this movie renting place? so then he got a few
^^ i got that a pink one

Haven't played around w/ my Konad for awhile.

I love this plaids design
Kinda hard to stamp it perfectly, the lines are crooked.

Wow, all of them are so pretty!
I really like the colors that you used.




Ooh, sparkly~ ♥



That's gorgeous. I love the flowers.

Anyone have tips on doing French Tips?
[Plain ones]

the stencils didn't work for me..

^I couldn't do them with stencils at all.
I tried doing it free hand and they turned out perfect.
Practice makes perfect. =]

Maybe you can try tape?

-annìie.

I'm lovin it, so cuteee. DO you know where to do it in the US? Is it costly?
I know I did it once in japan, they charge very expensive for the service on putting those fake nails on.
It takes LONGG time too ^^;

cute thanx for putting those pics

XD i use tape to french
but they arent always perfect~ XD

use scotch tape! there's tuts for that on youtube

to im` l0vEd

hey hey i noticed you live in the same city as me =D. i was wondering where you get your nails done at.

^
your nails are so nice. do you do them yourself? are those stickers?

Having short nails won't stop me from doing nail art I was bored so I played around with konad.

i love the idea of it, but damn..it freaks me out..it's like your nails are foaming up..

edit: and my nails are starting to grow back again!! black polish right now..im gonna dress reallyyy girly

the glitter is a seperate bottle. =)

ooh. how pretty. are those 3d flowers? prom i'm assuming? :]

Omigoshies I got my nails done today..
First time getting them done o-o

does anyone know a site / tutorial about how to apply a stone (something like first post with black stones displayed) O_O and how to apply chrushed shells? =O

i was bored in my sister's nail shop :/



not perfect i know, lol i had to free hand the tips.

LOOOOOVE IT LOVE IT!

Does anyone know where i can find a tutorial to do those gradient nails? I'm googling it now and I'm not having much luck...

hey watz everyones favorite brand of nail varnish??

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3vu9qL9CxI...feature=related
^ like this kinda gradient nail?

^no... not that kind =T In that tutorial it doesn't even really look that faded to me...

1lasthope, Someone posted a way she did it on the last page.

hey~ I'm not sure if is it very relevant here. but all your nails are so pretty? are they your real nails or acrylic/gel?

I saw it, but I dont' really want it her way... I like miss adorablexd's way:



I really want to find a video tutorial X_X

^it looks like she did french tips, then before it dried, used a dry brush to brush it back onto the rest of the nail '-'

oooh the gradient nails look soo coool, i want i want. T^T

wow. so pretty
i like all the little designs on them :]

i realllly want to learn how to do zebra print nails. ><
what do u use?

niceee..looks like trees during a snow-y winter

im cramping =x

japaneseObesession is right. thats how i did it. i actually used her tutorial =) when you brush it back dont do it too hard or too light.. cuase you wont get the same effect. practive a bit before doing it to each nail..

The glitter is seperate.

for the blue its from the brand MISSHA nail color GR101


i redid my nails again.. haha



i also did my friends nails




here is a picture of the nail polish i used



the one on the right is the missha

^I keep trying but I can't seem to do it right, is there a video tutorial out there?

its the same concept though.. becuase i used that girls tutorial..
so im not really sure what you're trying to ask? lol

I love your purple ones and pink ones! so pretty!

Since I sell nails I can't help but keep a couple of sets for myself....





Leopard print tips! XD

I have some pink glitter tips one with rhinestones + pearls too, but I haven't had I chance to take a pic yet. ^^

omg i love your nails. You sell these kind? (please say yes)

i haven't painted my nails in a while.
decided to go with zebras. i had the
urge to paint them ever since i drew
a zebra in drawing class. (LOL, lame.)



same colors like i always do.

they didn't turn out totally as i imagined,
but i'm content with them. i think i might
have to take it off once i start working though.
(but it's the zoo! maybe they won't mind. )

What brand/color is that?

berri_yumz

Ooh, that is cute! I love it.

I can finally take part in this thread. My nail isn't as pretty as other people, but I like how it came out! I followed how you guys did the gradient style.

Where can you get those beads or little golden or sliver balls and those bows and hearts?

^ dunno where u live but they have it at daiso
