Gradient Pink ---> Red nails with glitter

This is such a cool look! It's really different, the glitter is ofcourse optional but if you're going out this will really make any outfit pop. Also, you can use any colours you want- The most important thing is to have three shades that go from light to dark in the same colour.

Here's what I used: OPI base and topcoat, babypink nail polish, hot pink nailpolish, dark red nailpolish, glitter nail polish with different size glitter in it, a make up sponge.

Lets get started: Apply basecoat and let dry. Make a few drops of the babypink nail polish on a work sheet, dip in the tip of the sponge and apply to the nails concentrating on the bottom of the nail. Then do the same thing with the hot pink, but concentate on the middle part of the nail, make sure you blend it will into the baby pink to create that gradient effect. Do the same with the red nail polish, but concentrate it on the tip of the nail. If you get a harsh line between the colours, apply the lightest colour slighty over the darker. When you get a good result, let it dry and apply the glitter nail polish on the whole nail. Lastly, apply the topcoat and you're done! :-)

Nails with glitter, much more sparkly IRL :-)
