So this was my first attempt at doing a gradient with a sponge. I used one of those wedge-shaped make-up sponges to sponge on some Sally Hansen X-treme Wear Black Out onto 3 coats of LA Colors orange (sorry, don't have the sticker name). Here are the results:
In the midst of the process
I wasn't crazy about how this one turned out. I guess for my first try at a gradient it wasn't too bad. But the color combination reminded me of this movie I once saw with a bird that had similar colored talons and I kept thinking of that when I would glance at my nails. My fingers also felt weirdly disconnected to my hands. I think it was the super brightness of the orange at the base of the nail (which doesn't show as accurately in the pictures) in contrast with the black tips.
Weird.
pretty combo :)
