DIY | Ombre nails

Ombre Ombre Ombre! Everything is ombre latley, from hair to jumpers! So following this trend I decided to try out an ombre nail look. I was inspired by this photo I found on my tumblr dashboard.

Okay so on with the tutorial;

You will need the following - a sponge, scissors, 3 nail shades that flow [eg' blue, purple, pink or yellow, orange, pink], a base colour (I used a baby pink with shimmer) and nail varnish remover.

1. Paint your nails with the base colour, one coat only, make sure it is smooth.

2. Cut the sponge to the side of your biggest nail (most likely your thumb)

3. With your three colours of polish, paint vertical stripes on the sponge, you will need to do this quite thickly.

4. Sponge the painted sponge on to your nails, covering all surfaces (this will get messy!!)

5. Once the nails have dried remove all nail varnish from your skin with nail varnish remover!

6. You should now have beautiful summery nails!!
