The One With the ILNP Gradient Manicure
9:00:00 AMGood morning polished world! How are you all doing on this fine.....what day is it, Wednesday? I swear my days just keep blending into each other. Every single day I ask "what day is it?" I'm not the only one though, so I don't feel so bad about it.
Today's manicure is a simple ILNP Gradient that looked better in my head. After my New Year's manicure where I did a gradient with Versailles, all I wanted to do was another type of gradient using some of Barbara's holographic polishes on top of a black. I couldn't get the color combination exactly right, but it doesn't look too shabby.
Let's take a look!
Colors Used:
- ORLY - Liquid Vinyl
- ILNP - Float On
- ILNP - Tidal Wave
As expected, the polishes were amazing to use for a gradient. My only, minor, tiny, little complaint is that the colors weren't as vibrant as I would have liked. Don't get me wrong, they were pretty bright, but I think Tidal Wave blended too much into Float On. I really should try this with say a pink and a purple.
Regardless, I felt like the manicure had a real mermaid vibe to it. If I was really feeling artsy, I probably would have painted some scales on the accent nail, but it was midnight when I did this manicure, and well, I didn't have time for that. Honestly shocked I did a gradient on all ten of my nails.
What do you think? Like this gradient? Think I should try other color combinations?
Until next time, <3.
