I did my first ever sponge gradient yesterday. I'm sure with some practice it will look smoother. I used China Glaze in Flying Dragon (Neon) and Purple Panic (Neon). In the finished mani I feel like there isn't enough contrast in the colors, but they are neons so the color isn't as opaque as a cream. I still like the colors together.
After finishing with the gradient I topped off my nails with L.A. Girl Glitter Addict in Uninhibited, and I gotta say I LOVE this glitter. Obviously it isn't sparkly like traditional glitter but I really dig the black glitter.
I look forward to doing more gradients in the future and hopefully getting better at it. If any body has any handy tips I would love to hear them. Thanks for reading!
Hello lovelies! I've been so frickin busy the past couple days. I haven't had time to do my nails or really anything at all relaxing. So today I thought I would harness some beachiness in my mani. It didn't show up as well in the pictures but I have some beachy stamping done over a yellow/orange gradient.
Here is a closer look at a palm tree detail I put on my middle finger. The colors I used were Sinful Colors in Cloud 9 for the orange, and Finger Paints in Art Nouv-Yellow. The stamping was done with Pure Ice in Really Rio.
