Purple Sponge Gradient

Well I had my green gradient sponge manicure on for three days and I could have gone all weekend with it on but I had to have a change.  After doing nails for a friend earlier on on Friday afternoon, it was time for me to do mine. But one thing I will say is what a b****r it was to take off the nail stickers.  I even wrapped my nails in foil for a while but it still took me ages to get them off.  I liked the gradient sponge so did it with purple this time.

The colours I used were China Glaze Who's Wearing What for the cuticle area, OPI Funky Dunkey for the mid section and Avon Midnight Plum for the tips.  I added nails stickers for some more effect, a coat of SV and voila.

Avon Change Artist Colour

NOTW on 18 April 2010.

This manicure was done using Avon Change Artist Colour.

I used the Shimmering Red/Clear polishes from Avon. The purpose of this duo is that you put on the main nail colour (in this case the red) and then you paint over a pattern like a nail tip, diagonal stripe etc. with the clear polish. This is then supposed to change the colour.






It is not very noticeable at all???


Can you tell?



It is a nice enough colour, it was quite easy to apply and the colour has real depth to it. I am sure I have OPI's and Zoya polishes that are quite similar though. Sorry about the lack of clean up, I am getting better at it now before taking photos.
