PSA: Konad, for the nail biters

I bought THIS set in June, when I was trying to stop biting my nails. It was $40 at a kiosk in the mall.  I haven't bit my nails since. 
For awhile, I was kind of picking at them, but every time I did my nails, I wouldn't want to ruin it, so I'd stop.  It's been a good tool for me.

Check out their other sets.  I keep buying new polishes and plates, so I have a lot invested in it now, but you really don't have to spend that much.

There's some better videos on Youtube, but I can't access that at work.

Here's some of my designs:







You don't have to make then as gaudy as these.  These are from when I was bored and went all out.  You can make some really neat French tips, which is my favorite part.  I don't have any more pictures, but I've definitely gotten my money's worth out of the set.
That, and I quit an almost 20-year old habit.

Now, if I take a break and don't paint my nails for two weeks, I still don't pick at them.

Now let's just hope BF doesn't propose while I have purple nail polish on with neon pink flowers or something...

    Are they fake nails?  Do they damage your real nails?

    No, they are my real nails.  It's a stamping set that uses special polishes.








    Maybe these images will help....  It's one of thsoe things where the lady in the middle of the mall tries to chase you down and convince you it works, but it really does.

    Google Konad Nail Stamping if you can do that at work.

    My nails were getting long and annoying, and my file sucks, so I clipped them short last night and did this:



    Really, I know i look like I stepped out of a crazy salon, but it's so fun.
