My favourite Konad so far - M51 & Misa The Grass is Greener on my Side

I love this Konad soooooooo much, it is a definite favourite of mine.
It has a massive amount due to the fact that the base is Misa 'The Grass is Greener on my Side'. I seem to have a thing about Misa polishes, two of my current favourite polishes are both Misa and I have a few more yet to try.

OMG, what an amazing colour! A rich, vibrant mid green with a slight teal hue and the most beautiful shimmer that just brings this polish alive! It is seriously one incredible colour, it has to be seen to be believed. I never thought I would ever wear green, let alone one in a mid-green, but this is seriously amongst my favourite polishes, it was love at first swatch. This polish applied really well and needed only two coats to look even, dried fairly quick too.

I added a design from plate M51, a delicate floral design I felt would compliment the colour and bring out its rich spring like feel. I used konad polish in white and stamped near the cuticle so the flowers would look like they were 'growing' from my nail.



I really love the design, so delicate and pretty, I didn't want to take this one off. I think they work well together and this will be repeated again, I just adore it.

Delicate is exactly what I thought when I saw it too. It looks great... And that is such a pretty green! I can't remember if I have this plate or not. If I do, I'm so going to try this! Thanks for sharing :)

That turned out perfect! Love it!

Honestly this was the easiest konad to do, the design is foolproof. What makes it look good is the colour! There is a matching tip design on plate M56 too, that is just as foolproof (well, apart from lining the tip up LOL)

You're right. It really is a gorgeous konadicure!

Michèle said...

Good job! Like the positioning of the Konad :-)

I love this! Funny thing is i was instantly drawn in by the title of your blog post because I recently bought the Grass is Greener on my holiday. and when I say your konad I burst out laughing because I did the same konad this morning. except my nails are red. I'll have to try it with Grass is Greener. Thanks for your post!
