Double Rainbow... because rainbow gradient and holo rainbows. Can there ever really be enough rainbow? No. In case you were still wondering. For my last birthday my mom spoiled me and got me the Color Club Halo Hues collection. I put off using them for quite a while because I couldn't decide which one to use first. Nothing I came up with seemed worthy of the holo-tastic goodness until this: the double rainbow holo gradient.
I used a makeup wedge to sponge on a vertical gradient across all the nails to create the perfect holo gradient. I started by painting each nail the lighter of the two shades and then painted that color plus the one to be blended onto the sponge. I had to repeat each sponging 3-4 times per nail to get the density I wanted, but it definitely paid off.
Here are the colors in order from pink to purple:
Miss Bliss
Cosmic Fate
Kismit
Over the Moon
Eternal Beauty
I'm in love with this manicure. Because of my bad posting schedule these days I actually painted these about two months ago during the only week of year that we had no sun at all. I'm really sad that my bad timing means no glorious holo sun photos. But on the bright side as I was writing this tonight my husband asks, "Are those your nails? Those are really cool." I love when something turns out good enough that I can almost ask myself the same question. Does this mean I've officially arrived as a blogger?
