Oh. My. Ombre

I love ombre. Ombre hair. Ombre clothes. Ombre utensils. I love ombre. And then I saw this awesome blog on how to get the ombre affect on your nails and had to give it a try.

I had imagined it would be tricky, but it was super easy and has a really lovely effect. I used a light and dark pink (Essie: Lovie Dovie & Mavala: La Paz) Next time however I’m going to try more contrasting colours and take this up a notch. I’m thinking blue and white or pink and grey…

Here are all the instructions. 

(Note: I sent my pic of my nails to my bestie and told her she had to give this a try. She tried blue to purple, which looked very cool but did resemble a heavy bruise from certain angles.)
