I have spent countless hours looking at pics of gradients and videos on how to do them. I bought makeup sponges a few months ago, and was to afraid to try one, because I assumed I would fail miserably.
I mentioned wanting to do a gradient for a friend and she told me I should and a few on Twitter told me I should try as well. So I gave it a go.
I used the following colors:
butter London Dodgy Barnett
OPI On Her Majesty's Secret Service
Sally Hansen Navy Baby
The used the method where you pant a thin coat of the lightest color on your nails, and then I painted my colors on a makeup sponge and then dabbed the colors onto my nails.
Since I don't have any self control I added NYC Matte Me Crazy, and OMG I love it!
Then I needed to add Black Cat Lacquer Love Will Tear Us Apart.
Overall, I am very proud of how well my gradient turned out and all of my additions to it seemed to work pretty well!
What do you think?
