Kiko - n. 291 + Sinful Colors - Nail Junkie + Mi-Ny - Top5 Violet

Ok, this is the experiment I told you in the previous post: a sponged-gradiented manicure :D

(daylight)

When I got one of these Mi-Ny Top5 I just couldn't resist trying it, so I tried a thing...

(daylight)

Base is Kiko n. 291, tips are sponged (and patted) with Sinful Colors "Nail Junkie" ( ♥ ), then I applied Top5 "Violet" to make a gradient...

INFINITE job :D

I applied it like this:

- 5 coats on my thumbs;

- 4 on my pointers;

- 3 on my middle fingers;

- 2 on my ring fingers;

- no Top5 on my pinkies.

Finished all with Essence Better Than Gel Nails top coat.

(upper: indoor, shade; lower: outdoor daylight)

Honestly, I was hoping in a better result, more visible, but I think these glassy coloured top coats are meant for lightest bases, in order to show well the gradient...

If you look carefully, you'll notice that thumb is darker than the pinkie (check out below pic), but I really liked how Top5 transformed "Nail Junkie", look, is bluer and deeper :>

I loved the colours and the final result.

(semi-sun light?)

I guess next time I'll try it directly on glittery colours, or foils, I'll get interesting effects :>

Have a nice day/night/whatever and thanks for your attention ;¬)
