What I used:
(T-B, L-R: Etude House in GR603, OPI in Baby It's "Coal" Outside!, CG in Disco Dazzle, and a makeup sponge)Step 1:
Start with a base coat and then two coats of the Etude House in GR603 (thank you Digital Angel). It's suppose to be a pastel green, but to me it looks more like a metallic white which is what I wanted... hehe~ It worked out well! :)Step 2:
With the OPI in Baby It's "Coal" Outside!, I colored the tip. You don't have to worry about it being perfect.Step 3:
Grab a piece of white paper and put some OPI nail polish in Baby It's "Coal" Outside! With the makeup sponge, I cut a small piece and dab it into the nail polish on the paper.
Then you can make a gradient effect on your nails. The lightest on the middle with the darkest on the bottom.Step 4:
Grab the CG in Disco Dazzle and paint over the black gradient. The purpose of this is trying to have different size sparkles on the black gradient. End with a top coat.
Here's a close up shot of the nail. I hope you like it!!! :)

This is so nice! You are so creative and I think I can really do this nail look :)
That's so cool! Looks like space, hehe.
This is a really cool idea! I'll try it the reverse direction b/c dark tips make my short fingers look even shorter.
Love it :)
oooh nicely done~
don't really have a sponge to use this method, plus i need a good confetti polish.
i't not liking the cast in general as much as i did for the taiwanese and japanese ones...but...the series is going better than i had originally expected. the problem is that they are making him fall for the girl way too fast! its too obvious in the third episode :T and they are planning on 24 episodes...wonder what they are going to do past 15...lol
ps he was cute in meteor garden. totally agree. speaking of which im downloading the second season cause i never watched it
It's Coal outside lol hahaha, I didn't know that mint green would come out real light, it's pretty though. I like that kind of color too. Good job !!
