For this week’s Monday Manicure, I decided to actually do a “design” of sorts. I made these easy gradient nails. Follow the jump to find more info.
Here are the three colors I used for this gradient mani:
- Deborah Lippmann Before He Cheats
- Essie Haute as Hello
- OPI Koala Bear-y
 |
I started with Before He Cheats, which was from my recent Birchbox haul. It’s a milky light pink color that acts as a great base for additional colors. It’s also a perfect color for when you just want a subtle pale hue on your nails.
I applied 3 coats to make an opaque solid color all over my nails.
After it fully dried, I took Haute as Hello and Koala Bear-y and quickly painted them side by side onto a cosmetic wedge, like this:
I pressed the wedge onto my nail to create a blended gradient design. I did that for each nail.
Once it dried, I added my favorite top coat and that was it!
