Go On... Have Another!

I'm back to the gradients! The Gradient Tutorial I posted about a month ago has really blown up and I really want to thank everyone who shared it on their blogs/twitter/pinterest/wherever! 
I used to really hate making tutorials but the amazing response to that one has made me change my mind. They always seemed so much hassle to create but now I've found a 'tutorial creating' style that works for me, hopefully they'll become less of a chore and become way more fun for me to write and you to read!

It's not your eyes playing tricks on you, this manicure does look very pink toned even though the polishes are definitely purples (and the names prove it!). I must have got the white balance wrong on my camera, whoopsy!

I used No7 Lucky Lilac as a base coat and Barry M Bright Purple as the second colour in the gradient following this tutorial.

  10. How do you keep the skin around your nails so clean and unstained by the previous color polish you were wearing? I just noticed on all ofmyour pics that your cuticles are beautiful as well as your nails! Thanks for sharing.

  19. I love your gradients!!

    Can you show us one with more than 2 colors?? I'm interested to see how it turns out with your technique. Here's one I saw from nailingthis. It looks awesome.
    She paints the polish directly on the sponge instead of on a palette snd then sponges it on the nail. I hope it's ok that I posted a link here, since I gave credit to the author. If not, feel free to delete it. :) http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8153/7262893982_2bc5150e3b_o.png
