Happy Monday all! Did you all enjoy your weekend? Mine wasn't long enough. One day off is never easy. I never seem to have enough time to get everything done. Oh well. At least I managed to get my nails done! Today's prompt is to do an ombre or a skittle mani. For those of you that don't know, an ombre mani features one color, but in different shades. I wish I had picked the color that is on my thumb, started with it at its darkest shade and gradually added white with each nail. Had I done that, this probably would have turned out much better. A skittle mani is basically like a bag of skittles with a different color (not necessarily skittle colors) on each nail. I'm super bummed that you can't see the difference in the picture between my middle and pointer finger, but I promise, there is a difference. I also thought I was going with creme colors and didn't realize one I added the top coat onto Phoebe (a matte finish) that it would have a shimmer to it.
Base coat: Pro FX Fiberized Ridge Filler
Pinky: Vintage Blue from Avon - 2 coats
Ring: Phoebe from Zoya - 2 coats
Middle: Blue Me Away! From Sally Hansen - 2 coats
Pointer: Why not from Sinful Colors - 2 coats
Thumb: Textured Teal from Avon - 2 coats
Top coat: Seche Vite
Well, it isn't too bad for my first ombre. I always thought those ombre kits that they sold were kinda silly, but now I may have to go buy one. :-)
