Did you use your own nail polish for the leopard print design,
or did you buy the konad nail polishes like they recommend?

the black paint is Konad.
I haven't tried using regular nail polish.
The gold and the brown I used regular nail polish

^Doing it by yourself won't give you the best result.
It could take hours.
A salon would be quicker than doing them at home. mellow.gif

of course it will be much quicker and nicer cuz their professional.
...but i want to learn how to do it myself. I've been interested in doing nails for many years but never had the opportunity to learn or go to nail school. For the past year i've been at school, now that i graduated i work full time. it sucks.

Oh sorry, i mis read that you said nail school into nail salon.
But the acrylic you buy still won't be as good apparently.

<h1 class="itemTitle">I don't know what set she bought but her plate is "Plate-m57".
I'm pretty sure you can get the plate and black paint.

Is $8 AUS a good price for one plate?

yeah, it's m57 plate

I got them from www.wowsocool.com

Plate for 6.99
Nail polish for 5.99
free shipping within USA.
Very good deal. Cheaper than eBay.

AUS$8 is about US$7, so it's about the same price

^ I'm from Brunei.. It's somewhere in south east asia.. anyway, I can't find any pics of my nails I made with konad but I have other pics of my nails from this week which I hand painted cos I got bored with konad. I've had them for years now! sorry for the crappy phone pix...

earlier this week when my nails were a bit longer



mid week



end of week.. my nails are extremely short now cos I find long nails annoying when I put in my lenses..



I can't draw well hence all the simple designs.. haha tongue.gif

Some of my konad plates found hiding in the drawer..

And it's always this way.
My head is weak, my heart always speaks,
Before I know what it will say.

For Konad's stamps, do you just use your own base color?
