I had plans to do nail art on this base, but after I had finished with the gradient and the ruffian, I just loved it too much to put anything over it. Sometimes leaving nail art simple is the best. I was inspired by similar ruffian and gradient designs by both @somailicious and @thenailtrail.
I used three colours for my gradient. Picture Polish Bright White, Chillax and Marine. For the ruffian edge I used Face of Australia Mystique.
Alos, don't you love it when your clothes just happen to match your nails. I already had this mani on, and grabbed this warm and snuggly Oakley jacket and it was as though I had planned a matching mani.
Gradients always work and I love the combo with the ruffian edge! Did you actually draw that on after you did the gradient?
ReplyDeleteYes, I used a fine brush to paint on the ruffian after I had finished the gradient.
DeleteThis looks so pretty! Such a cool way to wear a ruffian :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty style - I like it :-)
ReplyDeletethis is lovely - I can't ruffian to save my life, but I love how it works here x
