Hello!
I wanted to something a bit “simpler” today, but it didn’t
turn out quite as simple as I had hoped.
Most people use a sponging technique when creating
gradients. Unfortunately, sponging typically eliminates the linear ‘flame’ in
holographic polishes, so I simply used careful application using the bottle
brushes to get this look.

My thumb to middle finger required a lot of fussing. I had to apply a lot of different shades to
get a good gradient. My ring and pinky finger were totally easy and turned out
exactly as I pictured in my head!

Lacquers used from thumb to pinky: Colors by Llarowe Black
Gold, Texas Tea, Color Club Beyond, Layla Coffee Love, Color Club Eternal
Beauty, Layla Ultra Violet, Cirque Bejeweled, Glitter Gal Bondi Blue, Liquid
Sky Lacquer Swerve, Layla Emerald Divine, Color Club Kismet. I had originally
tried using Femme Fatale Ink of the Sea as a purple to blue transition, but it
really didn’t work.
...and a bonus pic.
