An Introduction to Konad's Nail Art Plates

Not only is nail polish pretty much the "It" beauty product these days, but nail art is definitely having a moment.

Not only is nail polish pretty much the "It" beauty product these days, but nail art is definitely having a moment. A peep at various beauty blogs proves that you don't need to spend a lot of money (or hold an MFA) to get really cool-looking nails, thanks to Konad.

Simply purchase a nail art set, ($21-$430) which includes all you need to begin: a scraper, a stamp, Konad Special Nail Polish(es), and image plate(s). It's those predesigned image plates ($6.50 each), however, that allow you to have all the fun. (Check them out here and here.) To find out more, just keep reading.

Reader Style: How to Create a Toile-Inspired Manicure

Here's a fun post on how to do a toile-inspired manicure from OnSugar blog Beautopia: I cannot express how much I love toile.

Here's a fun post on how to do a toile-inspired manicure from OnSugar blog Beautopia:

I cannot express how much I love toile. One day my entire bedroom is going to be camouflaged as a toile hole in the space/time continuum. Konad Plate m71 ($7) has this floral pattern, which is about as close to a toile pattern they have. Usually toile is a bit busier, so If there's a better one I've missed, please tell me. I used OPI Mod About You ($5.50) as a base then used this plate and OPI We'll Always Have Paris ($5.50) for the design. This would also look amazing with black and white, and ivory and dark blue.
