Thank you guys very much for following. And sorry for my dissapearance last week!
It's just that these gradient nails gave me so much trouble. I did them three times 'till I was satisfied.
I didn't want to skip day 10. or post something else because I knew that would be the end of my challenge, I would never do it in that case.
So I tried and tried and finally came up with this:
I still don't get it why this easy mani was such a problem for me. In theory: just take the sponge and tap the polish.
In my case I either pushed too hard and the gradation was uneven or I chose too similar polish and the gradation wasn't visible at all!
I used these polishes, from lightest to darkest:
Golden Rose 221
Catrice Sweets for my Sweets
Essence Bloom-a-Loom
I added a shimmery top coat from Smart girls get more and a sealing top coat Up to 10 days from Catrice.
I like my gradient nails because the gradation is not so visible at a first glance, but when you look again, you can clearly see it's not just one color.
Do you like more visible gradations or subtle ones like mine?

I love it because you got a very subtle mani.
ReplyDelete♥ the colors... I really like purple & pink together! Beautiful manicure!
ReplyDeletesvidja mi se, kad sam prvo vidjela na forumu nisam bila sigurna je li gradient, ali se na ovim slikama puno bolje vidi
ReplyDeleteOvo je predivno. <3
ReplyDeleteAmazing!! I actually came to check out this post because I was like "I NEED THAT POLISH COLOR!" I was even more intrigued when I saw the gradient!! You did the gradient so perfectly! I definitely like the subtle gradient more. Did u use a cosmetic sponge to create this? & I understand ur pain of not getting the gradient perfect, I get SO angry when I do gradients that don't come out smooth like yours!!
ReplyDelete@Prettyfulz: Thank you very much! It wasn't cosmetic sponge, just plain old sponge for washing dishes... :)
