I had a great weekend
which ended with a little manicure. I just received the nail art pen from
Licila.si a couple of days ago and let's just say that I just had to try it out
right away :)
Anyway, I started with a
base coat of Barry M 3-1 (basecoat, topcoat and nail hardener all in one) which
has been my recent favorite. I do have a feeling that it makes my nails a bit
stronger. I followed up with Zoya Noel, which is a real wintery color, as the
name alone suggests.
I did two accent nails
with the Beauty UK nail polish in 09 – Frozen kingdom. I must admit that I was
a bit disappointed with the formula, but after 2 quite massive coats (and after
chipping it right away on the first try) it finally did the job. The color is
just right, though.
Next, I really got a lot
of use from the nail art pen, doing different patterns on both hands. I even
managed a relatively nice snowflake on one of the nails while this little
chocolate dude was controlling my work.
Regarding the Konad nail
art pen, I must say that I am quite a fan. It comes with a dotter (which needs
to be squeezed to produce more or less nail polish) and a thin pointed brush,
which are both placed on each side. The brush is really, really fine and you'll
be able to do really nice patterns with this. My only complaint would be that
the base (so the tube holding the actual nail polish) does not stand on its own
when the brush is removed, so you either have to lean it against something or find
another way to set it upright. It's currently on sale on Licila.si.
So to recap, I only
really used 5 different product counting the base coat and my long time
favorite Essie Good to go top coat to finish the look.
Have a great
pre-christmas week and, as always – until next time, stay beautiful, stay
awesome!
