Sunset nails

Thanks to +roa' hamouda (who you can find here on Facebook) I have another mani for you :D

She also commented on my "I have some spare time-challenge" post.

Asking me for sunset nails.

I've done some tropical nails in the past which also had a kind of sunset there

but I never got to really focus on the sunset.

 

Before starting my mani I had to check Google for some inspirational sunset images:

 

 

The left image I chose because of the colors.

I love this gradient and decided my gradient had to look like this.

The second image I chose because of the grass.

I prefer a black silhouette though (most easy) but at least my mani had to include some grass.

 

First step: Making the gradient.

 

These are the polishes I've used for the gradient:

 

- Only You White French

- Only You 113 Banana Split

- Kiko 238

- Essence Beauty Beats 01 Baby, baby, ooh!

- Maybelline 650 Midnight Blue

 

I've used the sponging technique.
And here is my sunset gradient:

 

 

Second step: Getting some silhouettes on there.

I've used black acrylic paint and a detail brush 000 to paint them.

 

 

As you can see I also added some wild flowers just to make it more me :D

Hope you like it!

 

By the way if you have ever any request for a nail art. Never hesitate to ask me!
