Black, white, red, blue, green, yellow, pink, brown - I love them all, especially on my nails! But wouldn't it be more awesome to have beautiful patterns on your nails as well?
Of course you can go to a manicure salon to get your nails done - but to be honest I'm not interested in spending a fortune just to have pretty nails. A few weeks ago I found the solution: "Juliana Nails"!
"Juliana Nails" is a shop at the mall "Shopping City Seiersberg". They don't only sell ordinary nail polish but also a so called "Konad Stamping Kit". This kit contains the basics (nail polish, stamp, template and scraper) and you can get it for 12€. You can also buy different colors (about 5€ each) and more templates (also about 5€) if you want to.
This is what I got:
Alright, so how does it work?
Step 1
Apply base coat and paint your nails with your chosen nail polish (you can use any nail polish you want - it works as good with the 1€ nail polish as it does with the 8€ one).
Step 2
Apply some of the Konad Nail Polish to the design on the template.
Step 3
Carefully sweep the Konad Scraper over the design.
Step 4
Now press the stamp firmly onto the design.
Step 5
Make sure you picked up the entire design. Then just roll the stamp from one side of your nail to the other with a little pressure.
Step 6
If you have stamped onto your skin remove the bits hanging over the edge of your nails and apply top coat.
Step 7
Clean your stamping kit with nail polish remover - and that's it!
It's absolutely worth a try, super easy, fast and as you can see the results are really good - and it's definitely cheaper than going to a manicure salon ;)
I'm usually not too keen on colorful nails, I prefer it simple.. but I just love your nails :)
AntwortenLöschenSounds like you'd need steady hands for that! I have troubles just putting the polish actually on my nails - not all around on my fingers ;-)
Thx Joey! :)
LöschenBut you know, you can also just stamp the patterns onto transparent nailpolish - especially the little stars and flowers look really nice on "natural nails" as well! :)
And it's not too bad - I'd actually say that it's easier to stamp those patterns onto your nails than applying the color itself :P
Thank you so much for these instructions :) I couldn't really imagine how this whole thing works, but now I can. I'm definitely not an expert in painting my nails, but these steps sound pretty understandable, so I'm very tempted to give it a try :D
AntwortenLöschenNo problem at all, I'm glad I could help to make it more understandable! :)
AntwortenLöschenYou really should, it's easy, fast & looks super awesome! :D
