Hey all!
I am trying my hardest here to catch up with this challenge - everyone else I believe is on.. Day 22/23. I am on... Day 10! Yaaaaaay for Day 10 haha! Got to be positive about these things :)
So anyway. I was not looking forward to today - I am not great at gradients they always look not blended. I try my hardest - maybe its just the polish I choose.
Today I went for something unusual for me - a mix of orange and coral orange/pink. I used Barry M Gelly Papaya and one of my new Taras Talons polishes - Orange Juice.
I've worn Papaya before - its a very bright juicy orange. Orange Juice is a corally orange, which looks a bit pinker when you put it with Papaya. I think they work well together. I used two coats of Papaya, and then sponged Orange Juice on at the tip. What do you think?
I then thought it didn't look quite finished, so I went for your typical sunset look and freehanded a palm tree silhouette onto my accent nail.
Don't forget to check out what everyone else did for gradient week!

ReplyDeleteThem damn palm trees, always sneaking up on people haha!
DeleteI actually like this subtle gradient look! I think it's definitely easier to pull off than two contrasting colours which is what I shouldn't have tried with haha!
ReplyDeletethanks! This is the first successful gradient I've ever done!
