Glitter Gradient Nail Art!
What’s sexier than a glitter gradient nail art? NOTHING!
I absolutely love glitter polish and wanted to go something good for the 17th challenge of the 31 day nail art challenge!As you know I’ve already don’t gradient nails in my earlier challenge, but that was using regular polish. So, if you have even a little knowledge in nail polishes you will know that it almost impossible to do ombre nails using the glitter polish and sponge method. So I’m going to show you another way of doing gradient nails which is equally easy!
Products used for this nail art:
1. Cheap turquoise glitter polish 😛
2. Ranara base coat (essential)
3. Asepta top coat.
Step One: Apply base coat to protect your natural nails. Never miss the base coat when dealing with glitter nail polish.
Step Two:Apply a layer of your glitter polish which starts almost at the base of your nail. How ever I prefer to leave a little space around the base.
Step Three: Now once the first coat is dry, apply another layer of glitter polish starting from the middle half of your nail and running towards the tip. Allow it to dry.
Step Four:Â Apply glitter polish to the tips of your nail. Allow it to dry!
So here we eventually built up more glitter polish around the tip and less near the base thus creating a gradient effect. You can build up more polish if you wish, I’ve done only three coats because i wanted it to be calm and casual and not very very glittery!
Step Five: Finish with a fast drying top coat to seal in your design.
I did a little white wild flower on my ring finger to give it a different look Check my wild flower nail art post to try that.
Its easy yet so sexy! Carry this glitter gradient with a stunning outfit turquoise (such as this one I loved from Lakme Fashion week) and be ready to shine!
