Hello ladies!
Are you having Monday blues?
Well I certainly am. 
It’s been a while since I last painted my nails. This is a backdated nail art as my nails are still at resting phase now. 
I know how some girls are telling me that it is really hard to paint nails in gradient, but I have identified few key points to easy success.
1. Always use lighter polish, try to avoid matte polish since matte colors are just hard to blend.
2. Pair with some glitters to cover the imperfections.
My choice of colors. I really like the Orly french manicure light pink. Very easy to go with other colors.
1. Paint a layer of light pink.
2. Then immediately paint a layer of darker pink, try to do it before the first coating dry so the 2 colors can blend better.
3. Let the pinks dry and finally paint a layer of glittery nail polish.
4. Followed by a top coat, and you are done!
Easy peasy, isn’t it?
What I think is, it is a design that looks perfect from afar, but it is actually far from perfect.
If you do know how to handle matte color gradients, do leave me a tip!
