Gradient nails are something that I've been admiring for a long time but never quite managed to master myself. Until very recently that is!
I've seen a few tutorials and this one from The Beauty Department looked the most promising but using four colours seems like it would take a lot of time and effort just to get the effect of one colour fading in to another, I figured there must be an easier way! After a bit of playing around, I found a method that's super fast, very easy and all you need is two colours and a sponge.
To get this ombré result, I used BYS Pretty as a Peach, Rimmel Urban Princess and a small section of sponge. More details to follow tomorrow!

ReplyDeleteThis is SO pretty! Looking forward to reading the details on how you did it. :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait! I've been practicing, but one wrong move and I put too much polish on my nail!

ReplyDeletethis is so cute, I love the shades of pink. I own a BYS nail polish and I think they're pretty good for the price, however mine is a neon pink and it doesn't get much use!

ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the details that follow! I have been trying to master the gradient as well. Hopefully they will help =)
ReplyDeleteAmy
It looks amazing, I need to try it out!
ReplyDeletenice work! I looked at a tutorial and found a way that works for me. I get a makeup sponge, I paint the design i want onto the sponge (usually just stripes) then i dab the sponge onto my nails. I repeat this a few times to get the desired affect, but it is working very well for me. Just got to make sure I have a nice base coat first.
ReplyDeleteI love this pink its so beautiful, and I agree gradients are so pretty. I haven't perfected it myself but practice make perfect. I love the accent twist.
ReplyDeleteI like gradient nails! I recently started to try The Beauty Departments method which was easier than what I did before.
ReplyDeleteI must say I really like the way you did it, so I can't wait to see how you do it :)
I want to master this too!!!! Loveit <3
ReplyDeleteLovely. And you have the best cleanup I have ever seen!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you tried Makeupwithdrawal's tutorial. Great job!
ReplyDeletepretty combo! 2 shades r much easier than 4!! I mess up whn I do 4
ReplyDeleteI love how you reversed it on your ring finger :) Have wanted to try gradient nails for ages!
ReplyDeleteThese are really cute! I've tried doing gradient nails before and failed horribly! Yours fade out so perfectly. I can't wait to see how you did this.
ReplyDeletebeautiful!! I'm anxious to see how it's done so I can try it out myself :)
ReplyDeleteThat gradient has a lovely "smoky" look.. just like the smoke when you are having a cigarette!
ReplyDeleteLove this! Very pretty.
ReplyDeleteLove this combo! I've actually been a little intimidated to try the gradient, and since I dint have those type of sponges lying around have yet to try it.
ReplyDeletegood job!!
