Another way to: Gradient Nail Design

This is revisiting a design that was one of my first here on YouTube!
This video shows an alternative way to create the same effect of fading or gradient nails.

so you actually don't have to wate at all, for a colour to dry, or?

really nice tutorial!

[szuchnic]

Nope you don't need to wait!

[sophieescoobyy]

where would be the best place to buy cheap base coat/colour from? anyone reply to this please if you know, thanks xxxxox

[szuchnic]

Your drug store would probably be the cheapest (or Wal-Mart). I think Wet n Wild makes a base coat that will run you are $1. Not to mention BOGO's for Revlon--get a color and a base coat for the same price! Sally's also has a huge variety ranging from very inexpensive to expensive.

Can we use any sponges or just those kind?

[szuchnic]

Yup! You can use any kind. I just thought I'd share these because they were a great deal. They are cosmetic sponges and I am pretty sure that they sell a version of these at all drug stores. BTW these work great for applying foundation too!

Question: Whenever I do my nails, I get too much too easily and it's cakey and it slides around when I hit it do you know how I can avoid this? It seems like in any video I watch (not just yours) people are putting coat after coat and when I do this it gets gooey.

@tarynstaycute lol a reply 10 months later, anyways try using nail cuticle treatment, then massage it (helps blood circulation) if you want to use a cheaper alternative then use olive oil. And file your nail parallel to your nails it makes it thicker at the tip so it doesn't break.

I find the smooth makeup sponges to be the best for doing this because it doesn't come out as textured or clumpy :)

[tarynstaycute]

My nails are very thin and can't seem to handle being long. What advice do you have to make my nails stronger and be able to grow longer?

[zuerigiirl]

ok, thanx =)
