Another of Make Up Savvy's challenges!
Today's is gradient nails which I was really excited about until........I couldn't find my sponges ANYWHERE!
So I had to improvise slightly...
Instead I picked 3 colours ranging from light pink to red and layered them on my nails in 3 stripes (kind of!)
If I'd had sponges these colours would have blended together really well but unfortunately that wasn't to be.
The base colour is 17 Supreme Shine in Simply Pink, the middle colour is No7 Cheeky Chops (post here-also in the photo) and the red is Barry M (262)
Then I used my dotting tool to do the dots, which hide a multitude of sins!
I tried my best to get the nails to blend and in some they did but others didn't look so great and this is a really cute toadstool look, ha!
I overloaded the dotting tool with the white nail polish from the Barielle Bridal Collection (Enduring) and blobbed it on wherever I felt necessary
I quite liked this design, it was fun and so easy to do, though does take a little whilst waiting for all the coats and the dots to dry.
What do you think of my ideas? I'm planning on getting some more sponges today so I can attempt gradient nail art properly....any tips??
