Gradient manis and tutorials have been popping up everywhere, and as I said in my last post, OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls was like a blank canvas mocking me and daring me to slap something fabulous on it. I spied this tutorial and decided to see how it would look with $OPI Slushied from the Glee collection.
I think it turned out really great! I am very happy with my first ever attempt. Next time I'll take care to keep the fading further up on the nail. I got so many compliments on this mani, even from folks who usually pay no attention to things like this. A few people even accused me of pulling their leg when I said I did it myself.
Then I decided that I hadn't yet used my OPI Super Bass Shatter from the Nicki Minaj collection, and the purple would probably compliment the blue and white nicely. I was also very happy with what the top coat added.
I really like your gradient, but I LOVE it with the shatter on top! So cool!
ReplyDeleteI was very happy with the look, but not so happy that it started to peel right away. I think it was the 3 collective coats of Seche Vite that did it. :( I think next time I'll use a regular top coat and just be really, really careful until it dries.
DeleteLast week I tried a regular top coat for the first time in years. Gah! I do NOT have the patience for it!
