Konad!!


I remember the nail art trends of the past, some of it got quite scary! But there's been a huge rise in popularity again, especially of the Konad System where designs are stamped on to the nail. This makes creating intricate designs quite idiot proof!

So, I decided to take the plunge and buy a Konad set. This came from Ebay and came to just under £15 with postage. The kit contains 2 design plates, 3 special polishes, a scraper and the stamper.

There are 100s of designs available on the plates, rising to huge numbers if you include the "fauxnad" plates. The Konad System requires thicker polish to create the designs. They say only their "special" polish works, but a multitude of bloggers have found others that work.

I'll be testing this out over the next couple of weeks and I'll share my experiences with you.

  3. Hi Becky!

    I have Konad too and I really like it but it's sometimes difficult to get the image right... I still have some problems but I am sure with a little practice it will be fine. Let us know what you think and if you have any tips... ;-) I should post some konadicure in the future...
