I really admire those who gets the konad thingy perfectly. I'm so so jealous:-(
I got my konad set yesterday evening and I was so excited that i started using it right away. After many attempts i've finally given up! (For the day of course!). Its so hard to apply it the way i wanted it to look like:-(. It looks so simply but thru my experience yesterday; I DONT THINK SO!
This is what I got from Konad's website:
How to use Konad Stamping Nail Art ? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Helpful Hints | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Looks simple right? Yeah right! This is what my first attempt looks like:
Argh!! Help my eyes! It looks so awful! Will give it another try next time but thats it! I'm not excited by Konad anymore. Going to try on my new MAC polish soon.. so stay tuned..
To purchase Konad, head to www.konad.com.my. If you don't want to pay the extra delivery charges, you can always pre order with me and pay the cheaper pos express delivery:-)

ReplyDeleteNisha,
ReplyDeleteFor me, I've to do it fast. Once you've scraped the image plate, you've to quickly take the stamp & lift the pattern. To lift up the pattern from the image plate, just roll your stamp left to right (or vice versa)
After that, to stamp on your nails, i will usually place my fingers on the table. And roll the stamp over the nail. You've to do this step pretty fast as well, because if not, the pattern on your stamp will harden & it won't stick onto your nail. :)
And yes, Susie is right about the hardest designs you've chosen. Haha..
you can just practice on your nail without any base color first. & prepare lotsa nail polish remover. :P
