Pastel Sponge Effect Nail Art

Nail art is something that I haven't had much experience with, only started painting my nails in the last six months... a bit slow on the uptake huh?

A pretty simple process but this has a really cool effect, you could do it with any colours, I'm going to try a white base with rainbow colours next.

You will need:
1. A basecoat
2. A base colour

3. Colour polishes (I used 5 different colours but you could do 1 or many more)
4. A small piece of sponge ( I used some from the workshop but a small piece of kitchen sponge would work too)
5. A piece of tin foil to use as your paint pallette

The Process
1. Paint on a basecoat (here I used Orly Nailtrition)
2. Base colour (I used Rimmel 60seconds in 805 Grey Matter)
3. Paint a small amount of your first colour on a piece of tin foil, dip a small piece of sponge in and dab it so the polish doesn't come out in a blob.
4. Lightly tap the sponge on your nail
5. Continue this with as many colours as you want!
I found that I didn't need to wait that long for drying as the polish drys really quickly like this
6. Paint a top coat and you're done! ( I used Orly Sec'N'Dry)























Have fun and do something nice for somebody else today!
