NOTD- Rose Libertine and Konad!

I went into Boots yesterday and took advantage of their 3 for 2 offer. I took a risk and picked up a Rimmel 60 seconds polish (after my last one that took half the day to dry!) in Rose Libertine, which I really love, it's a gorgeous colour and it's perfect for summer. 

The Xpress brush makes it really easy to apply and the formula was much better than my last Rimmel polish which was wayyy too thick and gloopy! 

I decided to do some Konad..ing? with plate M38 and a design I've not used before. I wasn't really in the mood to spend ages getting it perfect and I'm quite happy with the vaguely abstract result that this has produced! I personally think it adds a little character to my nails if they're not all uniform and perfect! However, even with that attitude my little finger nail is awful, please ignore it's existence ;)

Anyone else been buying up all Boots' nail polish while they have 3 for 2 on so many make up items?

My very first Konad attempt!

This morning my starter set arrived.. I managed to resist opening it long enough to take a picture of it before I ripped it all open! 

The stamper's bizzare, in between the single and double size, but it only has one stamper. The plate that came with it is M3, but I used M38 for my first try!

It took a few attempts to even get it to pick up and then to get it on my nails quick enough... Any mistakes I just used a cotton bud with nail polish remover on and wiped it over the nail lightly, so that the polish underneath stayed relatively intact...

This is MUA shade 12, as it's so easy to apply I thought it would be a good one to try it on, not too much hassle to reapply if I needed to.

This is the finished article!

Placement's not great on all of them, and my index fingernail is pathetic, I must find some decent falsies for this purpose, I refuse to cut them all down!

Overall I'm really pleased for my first try! Definitely looking forward to becoming an expert ;) and having gorgeous nails!
