Nail Diary #255

March 26, 2014
Let’s think spring!! It’s got to arrive someday soon!!
I have some spring inspired colors on my tips to share with you this time.
I absolutely love a multi colored gradient manicure. It’s a fairly simple look to achieve; the hardest part is the clean up.
To archive a sponge gradient manicure I start with a neutral base coat. My go to is Sally Hansen Insta-dry Petal Pusher. I like this because it’s neutral with one coat coverage and it dries very fast.
You will need a cosmetic wedge.
Then choose three colors to sponge onto your nails.
The spring colors I picked are China Glaze:
Surreal Appeal a bright coral pink, placed closet to the cuticle.
In the middle Fancy Pants a periwinkle purple with a pink shimmery finish.
On the tips I like to use a subtle glitter for that extra bling effect All Wrapped Up a purple glitter goes great with Fancy Pants.
I love how this color combo came together. They look so bright and cheery and with just the right amount of glitz on the tips.

Has spring made it to your town/state/country yet?? I’m looking forward to 50-60 degree days this weekend!!

Enjoy the rest of your week.

Thanks for stopping by!! ❤❤

Stay tuned for the next installment of the diary of a nail polish addict.
