The One With the Fun Leopard Gradient Re-Creation
9:00:00 AMHey all, and welcome to another Wednesday! Here we are, smack dab in the middle of another work week. I feel this week is going by super slowly, but that's probably because I'm just really looking forward to my Sleep-in-Saturday. I feel like last weekend I was busy decorating for Halloween and running errands that I truly didn't have that fully relaxing weekend like I normally have. Don't get me wrong, it was relaxing, but I just prefer more sleep. What can I say, I work in healthcare, I'm always tired.
Today's design is a re-creation of an oldie but a goodie. This fun gradient leopard print came up on my Facebook memories and I couldn't stop thinking about it, so of course I had to re-create it. I need to continue to grow my nails out because I feel the design looks better when the nails are a tad longer, but overall, I still loved it.
Let's take a look!
Let's take a look!
Colors Used:
- China Glaze - Capacity to See Beyond
- Some purple that I don't know the name of
- Serendipity Polish - Holoday Lights
- ORLY - Liquid Vinyl
So, Capacity to See Beyond by China Glaze is part of The Giver collection. I can't help but laugh that each time I a description of the collection it starts off with "Fun colors inspired by the movie The Giver". Last time I checked The Giver wasn't a fun movie or book and was actually quite dark. Pretty sure it's one of those books we all grew up reading that now aren't allowed in schools kind of like To Kill a Mockingbird or The Catcher in the Rye. Literary classics, but you know, whatever.
Despite the premise of the book, the polish truly is a gorgeous fun blue that works wonderfully for gradients and nail art. I actually have about three back up bottles of this color because I loved it so much when it came out. I actually need to start investing in China Glaze again because they truly do make gorgeous polishes, I just always forget about the brand. And, I'm not going to lie, the bottles are awkward to hold for photos so I kind of shy away from them. Dumb reason not to use my China Glaze, but again, whatever.
What do you think? Fan of this look?
Until next time, <3.
