I must admit that there isn't a huge difference between these 3 colors but you can still notice the gradient, especially in pictures. From lightest to darkest they are: Bahamian Escape, Flyin' High and Sky High-Top. I haven't done a gradient using nail polish in a really long time and forgot how hard it is to clean up. Even if I applied tape around my nails, there still was polish in the space between my cuticle and my nail, which made cleanup long and painful. So I apologize if it doesn't look perfect but I did my best. I think it was worth it in the end because I wore this manicure for 4 days and got a lot of compliments for it.
Of course I couldn't leave the gradient by itself so I decided to do a little stamping on top. I haven't used a houndstooth pattern on my nails for ages so I picked this one from plate BM-322 and used Konad Black for the stamping. Sadly the stamping didn't come out that great on my middle finger but I still managed to get away with it because redoing the whole nail wasn't an option.
This was another manicure perfectly adapted to my style. I feel that whenever I need to keep a manicure for a longer time I just need to use blue because I will never get bored with it. I hope you enjoyed this too!
