    I went to see Inception the other day. Has anyone seen it yet? 
    And for those who have seen it, trying not to spoil it for the rest, do you think the totem was going to fall? There’s so much speculation all over the internet, I don’t really know what to think!

    Title inspired by NEMO!!
    I never thought to use the Sally Hansen Chromes as a base before because I prefer ‘flat’, some might say boring, colours but I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed wearing this.

    My new blog…

    I have just started a new blog called The Beautysaurus.
    I started this blog to post Daily Konadicures but recently I’ve been diverging from that purpose more and more with mentions of cooking, bands and all sorts of other stuff, so I think I will put all of those kind of posts in another blog. I don’t know how often I will be posting on there. Probably not every day as I do with this one, but I’ll see how it goes.
    There are no real posts yet, but if you have enjoyed any of my non nail-related posts/ramblings, please feel free to check it out.
    Credit goes to Carli @ Konad-licious for this amazing design which I bareface stole! I hope she doesn’t mind. She wears it better than me anyway 😉

    This is the 4th franken I have made. I have 6 in total which means I still have 2 to show you! It’s very similar to Barry M Berry Ice Cream but has a shimmer to it which you can’t even see in this terribly lit photo. Sorry about that guys.

    Plate: Bundle Monster – BM15
    Base Colour: Franken No. 4
    Stamp Colour: Nails Inc. – Paris

    This is one of my most popular mani’s of late. I got complimented by two ladies at the bank who initially thought they were false nails and were very curious about how I did it, and the lady who runs the Hula Hooping Class I went to.
    I like this pattern because it’s hard to tell which colour has been stamped and which is the base (except on the middle finger where you can see the edges of the stamp!)
    Don’t you find it hard to explain Konadding to someone who has never seen it before?! I’m always saying something along the lines of… ‘Uuuh, it’s a metal disc with embossed patterns and a scraper and rubber stamp and you just transfer it over!’ or something else equally incomprehensible and long winded. People just look at me blankly and pretend they get it!
