KOTD: Love Lace

Today it was time to take off my Hello Kitty manicure and to make something new. I am impressed that I still had no tipwear but the manicure was already growing out what doesn’t look so nice with a black nail polish as a base color. :(

When MAC’s Love Lace collection was released here I wasn’t sure if I wanted to buy the one nail polish Light Affair that was released with it. However after seeing swatches the lemming came back and I am glad that I caved.

A Love Lace konadicure was the second MAC look that came into my mind when I thought about which MAC collections I could use as an inspiration for a konadicure. In contrast to the MAC Hello Kitty konadicure I wanted to something more simple and classy.

The m71 image plate includes my favorite Lace motifs and instead of using the Konad special polish in black I used the black creme nail polish from p2. I just don’t like how the Konad special polishes smear when you add a layer of top coat. Not pretty. :(

But now to the pictures. :)

NOTD & KOTD: China Glaze – Rodeo Fanatic & Konad m71

Yesterday evening I was in the mood for a new manicure and also thought about adding some Konad motifs. I was already a bit too tired to do the Konadicure so I painted my nails with China Glaze’s Rodeo Fanatic first.
The Rodeo Diva collection was THE collection that got me hooked on China Glaze. I don’t own all of the Rodeo Diva nailpolishes yet but I am working on it! :}

I adore Rodeo Fanatic. Depending on the lighting the blue seems more teal or even more royal blue. Almost like a tiny bit of a duochrome effect.
