Now for an ombre, there is a method where you take one color that is on the darker side and you custom mix each nail using white. So lets say you took a vampy red. This would be your darkest color. Then you'd take some of that vampy red and add a little bit of white to it on some sort of mixing surface. Then for the next nail do the same with a little more white. Then you continue making it more pale until you get the desired color for each nail. This probably makes a more true ombre.
The way I did it was I picked a dark blue and a light blue, and then I picked the rest of the in-between colors that I thought fit in. Onto the photos!
If you are wondering, the colors I used were Hard Candy Sky, Essie Bikini so Teeny, Sally Girl Epic, Essie Mezmerised, and China Glaze First Mate.
What do you think about this type of manicure?
Oh, great idea! I didn't have many "O's" either so I had to do an orange. These blues look perfect together. You make me want to try this!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! You should totally try it! I bet you have enough nudes to make something work.
DeleteOmbre... very good! Beautiful job, too. I don't know that I have enough of any one color to pull one off at this point, but they sure look nifty. ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I happen to have an obsession with blues and greens. I could maybe do it with black/grey/white type one. If you wanted to try it you could always do the method where you custom mix your ombre colors by using the white.
Deletelove your ombre!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Deletelooks awesome!!! I've never tried ombre, I'll have to get on that!
ReplyDeleteThank you! You should totally try it!
DeleteI really like your blogpost and blog in general ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's why I nominated you for the liebsteraward!
I really like it! I haven't tried the ombré look yet, but now I want to. I have 3 of the 5 polishes you used, so I should be able to do something rather similar. :)
