Edgy Gradient

Hi everyone!  While I have been having my own little swatch fest, I decided it was high time I took a nail art break!

Nail Art

I started off with two coats of Seche Head to Toe, followed by one coat of SV.


I used a damp wedge sponge to create a gradient with Seche Head to Toe, Conquer the World, and Buttoned Up.

For a little flash, I added one thin coat of Dance Legend Steel Panther, with the exception of my ring finger.

Instead of using my Vynails chevron decals as guides, I decided to use them as decals today!  So I immediately chose these awesome sparkly silver ones!!

I finished my mani with one coat of SV.

I absolutely love the final result!  It's still pastel soft, but the chevron and holographic particles give it a bit of an edge without completely masking the gradient.

I hope you enjoyed!  Happy Painting!




Colors: Seche Head to Toe, Conquer the World, Buttoned Up, Dance Legend Steel Panther

      They're actually decals from Vynails! You just stick the chevron stripe directly on to the nail and top coat to seal it!!

    This looks really cool! I'm going ot have to invest in some of those decals. The one's I have are colors that I wouldnt choose to wear, I just use them as guides.
