Then I tried to rack my brain on what to do right before this challenge went live. A gradient manicure. It popped in my head right after the first day to do it for today. I questioned myself on whether it could be dubbed a 'classic' but when I see one I think its definitely going to be a future classic! So why not start saying it now.
So I bring you my very first attempt at a sponged gradient manicure. Staying with the pink theme of Monday's manicure here's what I came up with.
I started off with my usually undergarments of OPI Natural Nail Strengthener and a ridge filling base coat I got from Sally's. Then I painted three coats of Queen Cupcake from Funky Fingers.
After letting it dry thoroughly I sponged on some of QC mixed with Sinful Colors Pink Forever and Milani Pink Hottie Neon. Then I topped it off with Sally Hansen Insta Dry Top Coat, ( actually like two coats) sponging does make the mani a little bumpy!
I definitely need to work on my sponging skills but I'm pretty happy with they way this turned out. My best friend today at work grabbed my hands asking me how I did this!
I hope you all are happy with this too! I can't wait to see what the other girls come up with.
