Grungy Gradient

And this was what I did in the evening just now! Was inspired by this article and decided to do my own ombre gradient mani! I do apologize for the mess around my cuticles. I'm a really messy painter and I tend not to remove the excess paint but just let them peel off naturally after I shower!

In case you're wondering, I used (from L-R) OPI Over the Taupe, Color Club High Society, Elianto Eggshell and a random white polish for the base colours! And a random black polish to do the brushstrokes!

  1. I love your mani in this one, I like how its like an edgy/grundge look

  2. Thanks babe! I think it resembles the shatter effect a little and it does look really badass and edgy at the same time! It was reasonably easy to do but I had to practice my brush strokes on a piece of paper first to get used to doing them! I must give credit to teaplayground, whom I stole the idea from! She did it with so much more colours so do check her version out too! Linked it above!
