Golden Oldie Thursday - Gradient

I have more Julep polishes to share today! I have an abundance of them and have been just awful about getting them swatched, so you will probably be seeing even more! I decided to do a vertical gradient today since I have never done one before.

I used Julep Eileen for by base. It's a creamy white. I added Julep Donna and Francis, plus Eileen to do my gradient and then added some stamping with Konad Special White. The plate is Mash-43, and I used Out The Door Northern Lights to top it all off. This is Eileen all by itself. It is actually a pretty nice white polish - very opaque. This was only two coats.

Here is what my gradient looked like before I stamped over it and added the holo sparkle.

Please pardon the ink on my hand...I have a lot going on and needed to remember some things. I absolutely adore this manicure and am hoping I can make it last for at least week before I have to take it off. Make sure you look at what everyone else did for their gradients!

The Neverending Pile Challenge - Brown

Good evening. The three brown polishes that I have for you today are all from Julep. I started out with a base of Julep Amber. It has a matte suede finish, and is really very pretty. I added a  simple glitter gradient to it using Julep Hilary (gold glitter) and an unnamed polish that came in the New Year's box last year. I added essie matte about you to keep the entire thing matte.

Here is Julep Amber all by itself. It's a nice suede finish. I don't have many of these, so it is nice to have in my collection.

Thanks for looking. Please make sure that you look at what everyone else did for today!
