I got a few new fauxnad plates yesterday and got one strictly for it's cupcake design! The base is 3 coats of Vintage Couture, the forumla is streaky and thin and 3 coats barely got it streak free and smooth..ugh. Then Konad-ed with Chocolate Brown and red glitter. One coat of Seche QD.
One another note, I drove 3 hours to go to my nearest Ikea today with one mission in mind...to buy a Helmer!! They are so darn cute! BUT..I had to walk out of the store without one...on PRINCIPLE! These drawer units are $39.99 in America and Europe but in Australia they are $119.00! Can you believe it?? No way was I going to pay that ripoff amount of money. Now can you see how much us Aussies have to fork out over and beyond the rest of you guys? I could start with $19 OPI, $15 China Glaze, $30 Nfu-Oh, $18 Orly, $13 Loreal.....but I won't because this post would go on forever.
Grumble, grumble. :)
Beautiful Konad.
ReplyDeleteOMG that's insane about the pricing. :(

Loving your fauxnad plate - where did you get it? That mani looks fantasic. I can almost taste that yummy cherry on top ;P
ReplyDeleteWe don't have IKEA in Canberra, and I was seriously thinkin of going to Sydney to get a Helmer - $119 are you serious. I'll save myself the petrol and stick with my plastic boxes. There is no way I could be this addicted to nail polish if I weren't able to buy most brands O/S. I refuse to pay the rip off prices here in Oz.
I got it off ebay froma seller who has now been suspended due to selling fake Konad plates....which is silly as he never said they were Konad, just nail stamping plates.
ReplyDeleteI just found another supplier who will ship to Oz, cherryculture.com who has Milani and Sinful just to name a couple.
Argh. So annoying about the Helmer. I love Ikea and I'm pretty lucky to have one just down the road from where I live.
ReplyDeleteThese colours are great and the Fauxnad design is amazing! x
