Ombré Nails



This summer has been all about the ombré trend with beach hair and the trend seen all over the runway in summer fashions. I decided to replicate the trend into my manicure after being inspired by my monthly birchbox order.

You'll need:
White nail polish
Any polish of your color

How to:
Get your base color and grab a paper plate or a piece of foil and dab four drops of your base coat onto your work surface. Add drops of the white nail polish to each pile on your work surface increasing the amount of white polish as you go to get a spectrum of colors from light to dark.

Now that you have 4 distinct shades paint your nails from light to dark starting with your pinky finger, but make sure to clean the brush in between coats of varying nails. Add a top coat and dry.
