A sponged rainbow

Hi ladies~ Awhile ago, I saw this mani over on Let them have polish and knew I would one day have to recreate this look. I loved the gradient shift of colours on the nail and hey, more leopard print. Why not? :P (Yeah...this is my third one in less than a month? Hehehehehe.)

I really love the way this turned out. I'm into day 3 of wearing this! Such a record haha, since I normally change my mani every 1-2 or so days.

I used so many nail polishes I'm just going to post a photo of the bottles used. If you want to know more, just ask :)

Hmmm, I might try a crackle polish over this next time. What do you think?

Thanks for reading!

  14. that looks AWESOME! I would be so angry if that chipped within hours of finishing! Not so good at the gradient painting, any tips?

  15. Aww, thanks Claire! I'm still not very good at gradients but sponging really helps! I used to try making gradients by simply painting and sucked so much at it. If you've got a sponge handy, go for it :) Layering a coat of glitter on top also helps hide imperfections and bling up the mani too ^^
