KOTD: Hello Kitty Kitty!

Meow!
I want to make a MAC’s Love Lace collection inspired manicure soon so I thought “Hmm.. what about MAC collection inspired manicures in general?”. The first collection that came to my mind was last years Hello Kitty collection because I just loved the black packaging with white and pink graphics.
Luckily I got my paws on the Fauxnad image plate with the Hello Kitty head and bow shaped rhinestones so I could realize this idea of the Hello Kitty manicure today.
First I was unsure about if I want to use a shimmery or creme black nail polish as a base or a grey or silver nail polish for the darker stamping. But then based on the MAC packaging for the collection I skipped the shimmer and sticked to the cremes.
In crappy, crappy daylight that caused a blurry picture
base color: p2 – eternal (210), one coat
darker swirls: Konad m69 with MAC – On The Prowl
bright swirls: Konad m69 with Konad – Special Nail Polish white
Hello Kitty head: Fauxnad A02 with Konad – Special Nail Polish white
white/clear bow shaped rhinestones
pink round rhinestones
In halogen lighting
I love how this turned out. It was the right decision to use cremes instead of shimmery nail or special polishes. However I was really unpleased with the black nail polish I used as a base color. I love all my other p2 nail polishes but this one is gloopy horror!
The pink round rhinestones and the white/clear bow shaped rhinestones are included in my giveaway.
What do you think about the idea to make more MAC collection inspired konadicures? Now that I got my paws on the Light Affair nail polish I can make the Love Lace inspired manicure that I have in my head soon but I am thinking about which other collections would be a great inspiration for future manicures.








I loooooooooooooove this!
So cute!
Thank you Missy!
I haven’t gotten my hands on the two glitters from the OPI Alice In Wonderland collection yet but I want to order them soon. I am replying here because the Giveaway comments are for entries of the Giveaway only and I don’t want to disturb the entries.

Was soll ich jetzt sagen?…
This is so cute! I love the Hello Kitty fauxnad!
Ack, my comment disappeared! The HK manicure is very cute. I love this manicure. I wish I were patient enough for Konad but I’m not.
you really, really inspire me. this one is a work of art. and I was thinking about chucking on the prowl in the garbage bin, the consistency of mine is horrible. who could know it would stamp this well? the color combination is simply amazing. are those pink stones from the ebay wheel?
Wauw thats really cute
Your so good ;D You keep amazing me girl! Would love to see more mac konads ;D
Aww you are all making me blush! Thank you so much!
On The Prowl is great for Konad, Deniz! With Konad you don’t get the bottle color on the nails because its not as opaque as a Konad special polish but over black its stunning and it should work great on a white base too!
Yes the rhinestones are from the big rhinestone wheel. I just love their size! They are smaller than 2mm and I prefer them over 2mm rhinestones.
rijaH I can’t wait to make more MAC inspired Konads!
Holy Moly Macaroni! This looks amazing! How do you do this? I must learn
Ooooh, totally cute!
I love this creation that you have made. Its very artistic and unique. By far the best Konad design that I have based upon a theme. Keep up the good work!
Thank you everyone!
Oh this is too cute.
Oh my gosh. I love every Konad that you do! You are so creative!! I’m jealous of your skills
Thank you girls!
*blushes badly* @ Polish Hoarder ♥
This is amazing! I’m tempted to try doing these myself! But I’m so horrible at painting my nails lol.
OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGosh this is soooo pretty!!!
Thank you Zel and Tish!
I love it so much that I am still wearing it. Also I have no tipwear yet which makes me love the black creme nail polish again even if its gloopy.
I love it! Very cute!
Gosh this is gorgeous!!!
I love this manicure. I own the Hello Kitty makeup and nail polish from MAC. That’s about it from anything Hello Kitty. I just think it’s such a cute design. I love your designs on your nails. Love the swirls and the combination of colors.
OMGAH, I LOVE this!!!!! I love Hello Kitty so much! This turned out great. Do you know if any retailers sell Konad plates?? I’ve never tried them, & seeing your nails makes me want to try them even more!
Thank you all!
Nicole O. I buy Konad image plates on http://www.ocnailart.com/. With the code “sparkled” or “Scrangie” you get 30% off your order and I think now free international shipping starts at $20 after discount and from the 14th or 15th it starts from $40 after discount. Free shipping should start lower on US shipping.
The image plate (non Konad) with the Hello Kitty head is from ebay.
this is amazing! you are awesome my dear!
I really really love this! Its so cute! This makes me really want to go out and get a Konad kit.
Thank you so much Yaya and Tee!
loooove this!!
That is so cute. I never like doing all that work, because I take it off the next day. My polish never lasts more than about 32 hours max.
Thank you Amber and Danica!
This is so cute!! But….what does “fauxnad” stand for? Please let me know, so I can have a hello kitty stamp!
Thank you Dominique!
Fauxnad stands for image plates that are not from Konad. “Faux” for non-Konad and the “nad” from Konad.
I got this image plate on ebay but the non-Konad image plates are not called fauxnad there. They are just called stamp or stamping image plates.
This is the set with the Hello Kitty motif I bought: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300342296866
oh god, love the hello kitty one. I use this theme so often on my website
http://www.pinkz80.com/
Will definitely try this one.
I love this design. Where did you get the rhinestones? I have been searching for them and can’t locate them. They are sooooo cute!!
Thank you, mrsrexy!
but I wanted them so badly that I bought them anyway. You can find them if you search for “bow rhinestones nail art” on ebay.
I found both the round and bow shapes rhinestones on ebay. They bow shaped rhinestones are sold as a 5000 pcs set
Thx for the reply. I seen them there but I thought 5000! Thats a whole lotta rhinestones! But price isn’t too bad considering 5000 stones. But I love the bow sooo much I might just get them. I was lucky to get hello kitty fauxnad plate just before Christmas-it was the first one I tried out!
Keep up the fantastic work-I admire your manicures!
BTW, while I was faithful to Konad topcoat, I got tired of it smearing the polish, even if it did a thin coat or didn’t brush over image a second time and I finally tried using Seche Vite quick dry topcoat, which hasn’t smeared yet for me. Plus it is an amazing polish topcoat too!
That`s soooo cute!!
love this! it’s gorgeous <3xoxo
