Lynnderella Snow Angel Gradient

This was a pre-Easter mani that I did last week. I only snapped this one picture of it so this is going to be quite a short post.


Alternating bases of China Glaze Light as Air and Something Sweet. Then I added a gradient with Snow Angel.

Can you see the shrinkage I got especially on my ring finger? It's because the tips of my nails were SO thick. Think: base, two coats of colour, three layers of Snow Angel, clear, Glitter Tamer and Poshe.

I think it also chipped in less than a day. No bueno. But it was cute while it lasted. Haha!

  2. Despite the shrinkage and chipping, this came out really lovely! It's a very delicate look. Like you dipped your nails into snowflakes. :)

  11. Since you used so many layers, I have to ask how you keep them from getting messed up? Even when I only use a base coat and 2 coats of color it seems like it takes all night to dry before I can even THINK of putting seche on! btw, this mani is so pretty :)

  12. Seche, or any quick dry should go on tacky polish! Why use a quick dry top coat if you're going to let your whole mani air dry first? haha! :)

  15. Oh I didn't think of that! Maybe I should do this in winter with a different base colour.... not that it snows here anyhow!
