Valentine's Gradient with GB February CotM

Press Sample
 
Happy Monday! Do you have the day off today? I don't teach Mondays this semester so I'm always "off" lol but I'm always grading so just kidding. Anyway, I mentioned when I posted the Girly Bits February Cotm earlier this month that these would make a great gradient! I wore this for a full week AND I took pictures of this manicure after 6 days. So let's check it out

I started with two coats of Budding Romance, the pink holo. Then I simply added a gradient with Steel my Heart using a makeup sponge. I knew based on the holo formula that these would be super easy to blend! And it was!

Then I decided to add some stamping. I was going to do flowers, but the image would have covered up too much of my gradient, so I went with some ornamental stamping using the Moyra Ornaments plate and a black stamping polish. As I mentioned above, I wore this for a week and took the pictures below on day 6. NO CHIPPING. What is this sorcery?

Because these are so holo, I had to share them in the sunlight! So much sparkle! I like how the black stamping came out over it. I thought it might be too harsh, but I like how it works!

  1. Love this manicure. And I'm impressed that the pictures are after 6 days. I wear my polishes for a week if not more so seeing how they wear is important to me.

  8. I really love the gradient, shades I wouldn't have thought to pair together and yet, they look like they were meant for each other. I love it!
