Easy Gradient- blue and green gradient

Hello everyone! Happy long Memorial Day weekend! Today on the blog we will be creating a very easy gradient nail design, this is ocean like and great for Spring and Summer time. For  this simple nail design, all you will need is nail polish and the brush that comes in the polish, no make up sponges. We are using two light colored polishes from Glam Polish; the child a light green polish and sandy toes anything goes a light blue polish. 

All you need is two nail polishes, no tools:

 

Glam Polish- Sandy Toes anything goes and The Child. 

Apply a top coat. 

Let that dry.

Then on to the gradient.

When I polish my nails I always start with the pinky nail, then end with the thumb nail. If you do the same then starting with the pinky nail or whatever finger nail you start off with when you polish. 

First open both of your polishes, take the light green polish (The Child) and polish one side and then take your light blue polish (Sandy Toes Anything Goes) polish the other side by overlapping the green polish. 

Just make sure to over lap the two polishes when you are polishing the nails to blend the polishes together. 

Repeat this step on all of the nails, for this light colored gradient I did have to apply three coats, each time making sure to overlap the colors so they can blend together, even if you have to slightly go over the polishes again just to bend them. 

More of a look at the light green side, Glam Polish The Child

More of a look a the blue side, Glam Polish Sandy Toes Anything Goes.

Once you have your gradient nail design just right apply a top coat top seal in your design and to help it to last. 

That is all that is to this easy nail design. For this gradient I did try it with the make up sponge but I could not get it to work, so I found this way to work best with the two light colored polishes. I am not sure how well this will work with darker colored polishes, it works great with light colored polishes. I actually learned this method from Simply Nailogical Cristine, she did a gradient with her recent Holo Taco collection this way, she just called it a lazy gradient. 

If you have trouble with gradients maybe this might be an easier method on creating a gradient.

Hope all of you enjoyed this easy spring/ summer gradient!

See you next time for more nail fun!  

How Did I Not Know About This Polish? Glam Polish Review

Hello Everyone! Sorry that it has been while, I just started a new job and trying to get use to that and finding time to do this blog has been a little tuff and then a few weekend ago I was not feeling well, now all is good. Anyways this year I kind of would like to try out different polish brands. Today we will be giving the brand Glam Polish another try, I have tried out their polish before and really enjoy it. So today we will not technically be try out a new brand, but in the next coming week we will. The brand Glam Polish is an indie brand polish that is made in Australia, that is hand mixed/ mixed into small batches. They do have a warehouse in the US along with Australia. 

Today we have a polish that I am super excited about because of the name of the polish.   

That Polish is the Child from The Mandalorian (Star Wars). I just happen to go on the Glam Polish website and saw that they had a Mando trio collection! I was so surprised and was thinking how did I not know about this trio, I love Grogu (The Child) he is so cute and the only reason why I am even interested in The Mandalorian. 

This trio came out sometime in 2020, and has three polishes The Child, This Is The Way and I Have Spoken. Unfortunately I could not get the whole trio just The Child, the other two are sold out and this trio is limited edition. I am still glad that I was able to get my favorite Grogu (The Child) polish. 

I did purchase two other polish one is from a Star Wars inspired collection and then one that is beach themed. 

Let's take a look at the three polishes. 

First we will go over my fav, well when it comes to name, The Child this is a light sea foam green polish, with some shifting shimmer and small holographic glitter. This polish is on the sheer side it took three coat for me to get it to be opaque. I do have trouble polishing lighter colored polishes and I did have some trouble with this one. 

The Child is still available on the Glam Polish website for $10.00 USD

Next we have Obi- Wan this is from the Star Wars inspired collection A Galaxy Far Far Away. This polish has a holographic copper/gold base, with a lot of multi-chrome flakes, some glitter, this polish has a lot going on in it and is so pretty and unique. This polish was opaque for me in two coats. This polish did look kind of similar to the photos that I seen online of the polish This is The Way from the Mando trio, so that is why I picked out this one.

Obi- Wan is also still available on the Glam Polish website for $12.50 USD

Lastly we have Sandy Toes Anything Goes form the Beauty and the Beach collection. This polish was just a random one that I picked out, unlike the last two that are Star Wars themed. Anyways Sandy Toes Anything Goes is an aqua blue polish, with iridescent flakes in it, along with some small holo glitter. This polish was opaque for me in three coats. 

 

Sandy Toes Anything Goes is available on the Glam Polish website for $12.50 USD

In conclusion Obi- Wan was actually my favorite polish when it came to the polish it's self. This polish applied the best for me and is just super unique, you don't really see polishes that look like this everyday. 

Second we have to be The Child because Grogu, I love this little green dude. The polish is pretty, I just had a little trouble polishing this one. The first time I wore this it just didn't look good, it was probably just me, it did end up looking much better the sound time around.

Third would be Sandy Toes Anything Goes. I love blue polishes and the beach theme is always a plus. For some reason this polish the first time I wore it to, just did not look right/ good, once again I gave it another go and it looked better. Once again maybe it was just me?

Hope all of you enjoyed this review of some polishes from Glam Polish. In the next few weeks I will have a review of, a new to me brand that I was just curious to try that I saw on Facebook, this polish is a brand, that is suppose to be a better for you polish that is made in Hawaii, So we will see how that goes.

See you next time for more polish fun!
