Nubar Green Tea

Good afternoon, Dear Reader!

I did some swatching for you for a post later this week, and thought I'd share with you the mani I did when I was done. I used Nubar Green Tea for a base, the added pink flowers with Konad plate M25 and a small purple butterfly with plate M7.





Be sure to enter this week's contest if you haven't already, Dear Reader. Love and nail polish to you!




The Ghost of a Zebra

Good morning, Dear Reader!

Today I have a little more Konad fun for you. I decided I wanted to try out the zebra pattern from plat M57, and thought for the first run at it, black and white would be the way to go. However, just to give it a little twist, the white I used is OPI's Ghostess with the Mostess, the glow-in-the-dark white. So now I have a zebra pattern that will glow in the dark!

The good folks at Konad, who I love very much for their products, don't love me as much as I love them. They didn't take longer-nailed ladies into account when they created their all-over images, so those patterns don't really cover my entire nail. My solution to that is to start the stamp as far from the cuticle as I can get away with, then use the French Tip from plate M19 to cover the difference at the tip. It's working for now, but in a month the gap will be too large for that, so I'm enjoying it while I can.

Here's today's Ghost of a Zebra mani.





I do love my Konad fun, and hope it brings you a little bit of joy as well, Dear Reader. Love and nail polish to you!

Nfu-Oh 68

Good morning, Dear Reader!

Today I have a simple little post for you, my Nails of the Day, which is Nfu-Oh 68. It's a sparkly, foily light purple. Being a lover of all things sparkly and all things purple, this is a perfect polish for me! And I'm even proving my right hand still exists today.







Don't forget to enter our Get In-Spidered-ed Conest, either, Dear Reader! There's already some tough competition going.





That's all for now, Dear Reader. Love and nail polish to you!
