15 Day Nail Challenge! Day 10: Gradient

Hey everyone!
Here's Day 10 of the Makeup Savvy 15 Day Nail Challenge. I can't believe we are already two-thirds done! Today's theme is gradient nails, and it's the first time I've ever done it. It didn't turn out perfect, but I kind of love it. I love blue polish anyway, but I really love these three. I may have been overly ambitious for my first ever gradient, using three rather than two polishes, but I love all three colours. I can't wait to try this again!




Here's what I used: a makeup sponge, a toothpick, and three blue polishes. Barry M's Blue Moon, Barry M's Turquoise (£2.99 each) and No7 Stay Perfect Totally Teal (£7). I used the technique from the wonderful Nailasaurus tutorial.

This manicure kind of reminded me of a Blue Lagoon cocktail (my cocktail of choice in my early legal bar-going days). What do you think? Have you tried gradient nails?
