Sally Hansen "Gray by Gray" with Konad M77 in white! :o)

It seems "SO" very good to get back to doing my nails. It will take some time for my cuticles to recover from over 30 days on the Harley. LOL!
This is Sally Hansen's "Gray by Gray"!

Sometimes it looks blue and sometimes gray and sometimes gray/blue. :)

I used Konad plate M77. 

I used the ONE feather design for the fingers and the DOUBLE feather for the thumbs.

Pretty cool eh?
:o)

Konad of the day and My 'real' opinion of the BundleMonster Fauxnad Plates:


First off I want to thank http://beautopia.onsugar.com/ for the Sally Hansen Opulent Cloud polish. I won it on her blog. She is awesome. If you want to see awesome manicures and other wonderful blog posts, stop by her site.
These are the items I used.

Sally Hansen Opulent Cloud is a dark gray with a purplish undertone and went on in two coats.

I sort of hurried so I could get it done before lunch. I shouldn't hurry a manicure. :)

See the purplish undertone?


OK here is where I want to discuss my real opinion of the Bundle Monster Fauxnad plates.
I took the time to look over all 21 of the plates. There are quite a few designs that are very untrue likenesses of what the design is suppose to be and the design is just splatted onto the plate without much though into the form and outline of a true and well made design. 
There are quite a few good designs too though. 
Take this fire/flame design from plate BM07 using Konad Red Polish for the stamping. It is not well formed and just doesn't look like much in my opinion. 
Would I pay $17.99 for 21 of those plates again......well........I would have to say yes because there are quite a few nice designs. Konad I do have to say takes more thought into their designs and more of a quality image.
Just my opinion. :) You will see more of these plate designs from me I'm sure.

KOTD: Zoya "Harley" and Fauxnad Plate C03

My grandson Drew wanted me to do something like fire and this is the only manicure I could come up with so this is for you Drew! :o)
This is Zoya "Harley" nail polish. Love the name and I love the color gray. Not sure if my skin tone is good for it. :)
I used the Fauxnad Plate C03 for the fire with the Konad Small Red Polish that comes in the kit. It is is very vibrant.
I'm very happy with it. 
I've got the 'small' giveaway all picked out and photographed. I just need to post it. Hopefully this weekend or Monday.
