NOTD #1 + Tutorial!

HI!
Today I wanted to do a notd (nails of the day), because I feel like I don't do any nail posts on my blog!...
Also, I really like my nails today!

                                               White Ombre Nails

You Will Need:
*3 nail polishes of your choice for the ombre.
*1 nail polish that will be the main colour, (in my case white).
*A sponge.
* A q-tip to clean up around the edges with.
*A school/ paper glue that doesn't contain loads of chemicals.
*Tape.
*A pair of scissors.

1. Start off with applying glue (I used paper/school glue for kids), and make sure to not put on a too thin layer of glue.
Also avoid getting glue on the nail.
(Don't do this if you have any cuts, etc around your nail, you don't want to get any glue in them!).
When the glue has dried, apply base coat to protect the nail.


2. Apply three different shades of nail polish on to a sponge, as seen on the picture.
I used a darker shade at the top, and gradually changing to a light pink.
To do this, just put three strokes of nail polish without mixing them together.
I applied a generous amount to the sponge.
(For info about the nail polishes I used, also where you can buy them, the details will be at the end of this post).

3. The glue should have dried by this point, so you can now dab the sponge onto the nail the create a ombre effect.

4. Apply a top coat of your choice, once the nail polish has dried a bit.
I used my favourite top coat EVER!
(Details at the end of this post :)

5. Once everything has dried, pull the glue of carefully.
Quite a satisfying feeling pulling the glue off actually:)








6. Use a pair of scissors, and cut small stripes of tape of, or use nail tape if you want.
Put the two stripes on to the nail with the ombre effect, in any way you want to. (I put them in a V shape).

7. I used a white nailpolish by H&M on the ombre effect nail, and also on all th other nails.

8. When the nail polish has dried, pull the tape of carefully.

9. And then apply another coat of top coat on to ALL the nails...















10. Clean the edges up using a q-tip.
And that is everything!
Of course you can use different shades, and have the ombre effect on more then one nail. Go on and experiment with this!
