The day I saved my mani...




Don't you like dramatic title? I feel like the producer of a big bad movie who's gonna make lots of $$$ with poor acting but loud music and tons of special effects.

Anyway, let's concentrate and go back to my sad mani. Yesterday, I was sad to discover that my Zoya Jordana was not meeting my expectations...So with a vengeful hand, I decided to Konad it. I started with a red Zoya : Isabel which looks raspberry pink instead of red. I was a little bit disappointed by the lack of contrast, then I read advices from Suzie and Short and Sweet Nails : they told me to Konad it dark. So I reached out for my Resist and Shine titanium (732 : very dark purple, looks black with flash of purple when alone on the nails) and again I konaded !

The result is quite pretty I think, messy but nice ! What do you think ?

NOTD : Cheetah print and favorite lip combo





Lips : my favorite combo ever
Lipliner : NYX Mauve to contour and all over the lip
Lipstick : NYX round lipstick in Power (a pink with a purple hue)
Lipgloss : Sephora lipgloss in precious pink

NOTD :
NYX secret as a color base
Sally Hansen black out to do the prints with a Konad plate (M 57)

My poor nails are really short. It seems that I neglected them a lot lately as I could not paint them so they broke, split....I need to give them a little more love !

EOTD : a very simple eye with a wash of gold-brown all over the lid , a little grey in the outer corner and a white highlight under the brow bone and in the inner corner. Very TiffanyD on youtube !

Tonight my hockey team is playing for the 2nd part of the play offs. GO , HABS, GO !!!

The Konad experiment



Sadly, I tortured a little bit my Zoya Isabel mani today. So the tips are uneven and it begins to chip...As I knew my mani was to get "acetoned" tonight, I choose to experiment with my Konad plates as I am a messy beginner... Here is the result of my practice : some "art éphémère" doomed to disappear without a trace !

The little skeleton makes me giggle. I can't help it ....

First Konad plates : pink and black nails




I received my package from OC Nail Art.com Yehaaaaaaaaaaaa ! The customer service is excellent and what a deal : 30 % off with the code SCRANGIE (thank you short and sweet nails !)

So I played with the m57 and here are my first Konad nails ;-)))
It is not perfect but I'll improve ...Everybody at work was impressed , they never heard of nails stamps, I am definitely a beauty advisor now hahaha.
I used the little lace band and I couldn't manage to make it even for every nails but I think it looked OK enough to wear !

Hope you like it
