Scaled Gradient

Hey guys!

Today I have my very first scaled gradient to share with you!

I started off with a white base on all my nails. Afterwards I used a make-up sponge, piCture pOlish Sorbet, piCture pOlish Chillax and piCture pOlish Instinct to create a gradient on about half my nail. When that was completely dry (use a quick-drying top coat) I applied a chevron nail vinyl and used the make-up sponge and the same polishes to create the same gradient on the other half of my nail.

I am definitely trying this technique again - I really like it!

piCture pOlish Nail Art Annual 2016

Hey guys!

Yesterday I participated in the piCture pOlish Nail Art Annual 2016 competition.
The theme of the challenge is 'Impressionist' and we were to pick a painting by Claude Monet to be inspired by.

For the manicure I used A LOT of piCture pOlish shades and black and white acrylic paint. I freehanded the entire design with a small nail art brush, except for the gradient in the background on my ring finger and pinky for which I used a make-up sponge.

Here is a list of the piCture pOlish shades used:
Freya's Cats
Glitch
Shy Violet
Cyan
Paris (original)
Sorbet
Enchanting
Hercynia
O'hara
Bardot

And here is the Claude Monet painting I was inspired by - one of his many water lilies paintings.

I am so honored, proud and happy for this opportunity - thank you so much piCture pOlish!
