Blue & Pink Ombre Nails!

I know the whole Ombre trend was last year but I decided to try them out on my nails (I know I'm behind the times lol). I'm actually surprised that this was my first time since I love trying new nail art trends.

But anyway, I just wanted to do a quick post showing you how they came out. I didn't pick the usual lighter to darker colors within the same shade. I used Scandal and Savage by Sinful Colors because I think they look gorgeous together.


If anything the color combo reminds me of spring/summer or a bright sunny day. A few of the nails didn't blend together as well as I would have liked but its okay.

This was one of the easiest nail art looks I've done. I applied 2 coats of white polish as my base. I cut one of those white makeup sponges in half and used the flat side to paint one half blue and the other pink. Then I just aligned the sponge up with my nail and kept dabbing onto my nails and then repeated the process of painting the sponge and dabbing. So I did two coats using the sponge. (If that made any sense). Adding a coat of Seche Vite makes such a difference, before they looked a little splotchy but the topcoat made them look nice and shiny!!!

What do you think of my blue and pink ombre nails?
