Frozen Blue Grapes Gradient

Hi guys! It's Nail Art Sunday today. I haven't participated in months! I can't even remember the last time I joined in. I thought it was time today. I slapped on some polish and did a gradient. 

The polish I've used are OPI Alpine Snow, OPI Pirouette My Whistle and Barry M Blue Grape. 

I started off with a white base and sponged on Blue Grape. Then I added some glitter to hide some imperfections. Glitter is great for that. 

I think the gradient turned out good. It's not great but it's the first gradient I've done in about a year. I love gradients but I hate doing them because of the clean up. I never clean up my manicures or swatches. I don't even own a clean up brush! I found an old make up brush in a drawer and cleaned up this mani. I really like the result but I might be too winter-y. I'm definitely going to do this again closer to winter. 

 

What you see in the pictures are two coats of OPI Alpine Snow, one coat of Barry M Blue Grape sponged on to the tips, one coat of OPI Pirouette My Whistle and one coat of Pretty Serious Crystal Coat.
