Nails of the Day - Ombré

This is just a quick post about my DIY ombré nails I tested out today. I think they turned out pretty well (considering I had no idea what I was doing)...

I simply got a lighter and darker counterpart for each colour, put a coat of the lighter on first, then once dry applied a line of the darker on the tip and blended with a cue tip!

I have heard sponges (think cheap foundation ones) work well too, and probably involve a lot less fluff factor. But for a quick way to test out ombré, this works just fine!

Let me know what you think!
