My Attempt at Ombre Nails

My friend Gang, told me about this ombre nails thing and how it's done. Omre's all the rage in fashion now, from clothes to hair and now to my nails! I immediately fell in love with it when I looked at pictures of it online and I wanted to try it right away, and of course I did it myself. I was lacking some major stuff so I had to wait a few days until I got my hands on them plus I was also growing my nails for a bigger canvass. I had several go’s before it looked presentable. I had fun doing this, and I'm definitely trying this out again!

First off, you need the following

Sponge, the grainier the texture the better

Two nail polish of different shades (you can go for similar shades if you want the subtle gradient effect). I went with Caronia's First Crush and Baby Pink)

Clear nail polish

Some qtips and nail polish remover to clean off the mess

So here's what I did:
First, you have to apply the base color on your nails. Just apply the nail polish as usual and let it dry. Once it's dry then proceed to step two.

 I took a portion of the sponge(a rougher sponge would really be better) and put some nail polish on it. 

 Then you pat the piece of sponge on the upper half of your nails. The upper half will not be so pretty yet, it'll look texturized and still rough, don’t worry about that.

 Apply the clear nail polish so the roughness will be gone and everything should be pretty and glossy by now. Except for the sides, this is where you need your qtips with your nail polish remover to clean it up. 

AND tadaaah, this is my best attempt at ombre nails so far!
