Summer Gradient with Nail Pattern Boldness

Howdy, everyone!  I hope you've all had a nice holiday here in the States.  I have a quick, fun manicure for you today.  I actually got this idea from The Polished Perfectionist so I can't say it's original, but I liked the look so much, I knew I had to give it a try! 

I'm loving how this turned out!  I used Sinful Colors in Innocent and Why Not for the gradient and then topped it with Flipping Out Hard by Nail Pattern Boldness.

FOH is a glitter bomb packed with tiny blue, green, and yellow neon matte glitters.  I bought it because I think it looks quite a bit like Floam, which is a total lemming of mine.  When I got the bottle from NPB, I was stumped at how to use it.  I did try to build it up on its own, but didn't have as much success with it as I'd hoped so when I saw The Polished Perfectionist's post, I knew FOH was just perfect for this look!

What do you guys think? 

Thanks so much for reading!

Kleancolor Chunky Holographic Teal

I have been a very bad blogger.  I think it's been over 3 days since my last post!  I can't believe anyone is still hanging around to read this.  Have you ever just needed a technology break?  Sometimes, I feel like I spend all my free time on the computer and I just needed a little time to get out of the house.  In any case, I'm back on track and I have a new manicure for you today.

Sorry for the wear along the edge of my nails, I've been wearing this one for a couple of days.  And I haven't been taking care of my cuticles again, so they look a little rough.  I'll get 'em back in shape in no time!  I started with one coat of Sinful Colors Why Not, a beautiful ocean blue creme.  On top of that, I applied 3 coats of Kleancolor Chunky Holographic Teal; tons of small holographic glitter in a clear teal base.  This was such a simple manicure, but I've gotten a lot of compliments on it.  Just goes to show that sometimes, simplicity is best.

I hope that there are some folks out there still reading my posts and that you enjoyed this one.  Have a great evening!
