I had a quick look online for tutorials but didn’t find many but figured it couldn’t be that hard. As I am away on holiday I didn’t have all the tools I would of liked and really struggled to find a sponge, I ended up using the little sponge you find inside jewellery boxes and it worked okay although I thinking using a makeup sponge would be better.
I used Essie Tart Deco as my base colour and one of my Cousins Nails Inc polishes although I think they are quite similar meaning you can hardly tell there are two colours. Overall I don’t think this was overly successful but for a first try I do think it was okay.
I can’t wait to try out some other colour combinations and improve my technique

you picked some nice colours here. I have seen gradient nails but i have never seen anybody try it with these kind of colours đŸ™‚ they look really good for a first attempt. I have always been meaning to try out gradient nails myself, but i'm always too lazy or scared that it will be a little too messy. Thanks for sharing xoxo

That looks great – whenever I do my nails it's like hand painting!

omg your nails are gorgeous! I tried this but my nails aren't long enough:( make up sponges are meant to be best for this because they have less holes in them in comparison to kitchen or natural sponges, looks great anyways!

This looks great! Gradient nails are a hard design to achieve, it takes me about an hour to get it right on one hand haha! I love the shades you have used đŸ™‚

I've done this a few times with a white base and two other pastel shades (usually pink and lilac). A makeup sponge definitely works better! I also always use a really shiny topcoat to smooth over the bumps the sponge makes!
