Nail It November! Week 2

This weeks post features glitter ombre nails- a really great look to try for the holidays!

      To get started you'll need three glitter polishes in the same color family. I chose red, pink, and a lighter, less pigmented, pink.


Step one: Start with the darkest color and paint the lower 1/3 to 1/4, depending on length, of your nails. Allow to at least dry to the touch. Since you're layering polish it doesn't have to be completely dry.

Step two: With the middle shade, paint the middle of each nail. Start just over the edge of the first shade you did to help blend.

Step three: Take your lightest shade and paint the remaining space on each nail. Then do a single coat over the entire nail.

The look should be very blended with no hard/visible edges. Here's how it should appear:


Enjoy! Happy Holidays!
