30 DAY CHALLENGE, DAY 10 - GRADIENT

Yaaaay, I HAVE REACHED 100 FOLLOWERS THANKYOUU TO ALL OF YOU WHO READ AND COMMENT ON MY BLOG, : ) I HAVE AN EXCITING GIVEAWAY COMING UP SOON : )

ok, so for today i wasn't sure if i should do an ombre mani or a gradient on each nail, so i decided to do both lool
so first up is this gradient, ~~i showed you this design at the beginning of the year in this post~~ can you believe i didn't show you this before ! anyway i did this design about a year or more ago and when i had some friends round a couple of months ago i did the design again for her, anyway here is the design, the only difference between this and my old design is that in this one i used the sponging technique to get a smoother gradient (thanks to Rebecca)

cute non?

anyway then i tried an ombre mani again (you can see my fail here !)

for this i used no7 totally teal (the thumb colour)

wheras in my last post i thought the colours were too similar on each nail in this one i think the colours are slightly too far away ! not sure, what do you think ?

OMBRE MANICURE : FAIL !!

hi everyone,
it saddens me to say this but this is going to be my last post for a while now, my exams are now two weeks away eeeek !!!!
ok, so recently i found out how to do an ombre mani, i used to think that every nail was a different nail polish lol,
anyway so i was meant to try this out a long time ago lol, but i only got round to it this weekend
ok so i used a really old revlon, (i think it was lavender smoke, will confirm later)

i knocked the little finger : (

please excuse my messy fingers, unfortunately because this nail polish is really old and i haven't used it for agess, it was really thick and took like forever to dry so i took it off 5 mins after putting it on lol, so i couldn't be bothered cleaning up properly, but i do love how shiny it looks
