Hello and an OPI Teal The Cows Come Home Konadicure!

Hello Everyone!!

I have been off line for nearly 2 weeks now! I didn't mean to be but I just didn't have a spare moment over Christmas and New Year.

I had such a lovely time. We made it to my hometown after all and I got to meet my newest nephew for the first time. He is absolutely gorgeous. I wanted to steal him.

I am very glum that it's all over :( but it's snowing really heavily here now so that's cheered me up a bit! Everywhere looks so much prettier with snow :)

I have had the same manicure on for about 10 days now and it still hasn't chipped! The photos below of it were taken about 2 days ago and the only way you can tell it's been on for so long is the nail growth at the base. I am very impressed :)

Here it is -



I used OPI's Teal the Cows Come Home as the main colour with Barry M's Silver sponged at the base of the nail, Sinful Color's Queen of Beauty at the tips and konad's white special polish for the stamp (M12). I topped it off with Konad's top coat.









This is another one that didn't quite turn out as expected, next time I'd put the snowman on first and put the glitter round it! I got lots of compliments about it though :)

Anyway, I hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas and Happy New Year!

Millie, what shades/brand did you use on the nails? Gotta know, for the extreme long wear it has :-)

Very pretty and frosty look. I never have anything last that long. I should use rubber gloves but I never think about it. Glad you had a wonderful holiday.
