Show Some Love Saturday

Hi everyone!!
This week I wanted to attempt a gradient reminiscent of the sunset with a few of my Pure Nail Lacquer polishes.  Here's what I came up with.

For this mani I used Pure Nail Lacquer Sunny Disposition, Stand Out and Fiesta.

Pure Nail Lacquer Sunny Disposition, Stand Out and Fiesta


Below is a tutorial of how I came up with this look.

Start with a base color.  In this case, I used Pure Nail Lacquer Sunny Disposition.


Line up your polishes one on top of the other on a wet makeup sponge.  Keeping the makeup sponge wet will prevent the polish from drying too quickly.


Create a gradient on the nails with the sponge.


Clean up around the cuticles.  For clean up, I use pointed cotton swabs.


I used a black nail art brush to create two birds on each nail.


Finish off with top coat.

 I really liked how this mani turned out.  It definitely reminds me of the sunset.

What do you guys think of this mani?  Have you done anything like it before?
