To do this, I used:
The Face Shop Nail Base Coat
The Face Shop Nail Nutrition Coat (moisturiser)
Yashali Colour 071 (some random cheap nail polish I bought from a bazaar)
The Face Shop Top Coat 04
Konad Plate S10
Konad Special Nail Polish, white
The random nail polish that I bought from a bazaar was really cheap so it's expected that the coverage is not great. It took me three coats for it to get that shade. That purple is nice though, it looks so pretty in the sunlight. This was also the first time I used the 'premium' top coat from Face Shop (the more expensive one). I must say I was quite impressed. It dries pretty fast, and it also smooths out any 'spikes' that you might get if your nail colour gets sticky in the middle of application.
One of the things you have to remember when applying top coat after doing the Konad nail art is that you have to do it as gently as possible. It has been a while since I did Konad nail art, which was why my left hand ended up a little smudged. The trick is, I barely touch my nail with the brush and apply a pretty thick coat.
Because I did this nail art at about 11 at night, I went to bed about half an hour after applying the top coat. There're pillow imprints on my left hand now, so letting it dry for about two hours is suggested, just to be on the safe side.
