This is my attempt at an ombre mani using one of my favorite colors...PURPLE! The first pic is all the purples I have. I took a few pics of the mani just to play around with the effects on my camera haha. From thumb to pinky I used Essie's St.Lucia Lilac, Bangle Jangle, Play Date, Color Club's Pucci-licious, and Rescue Beauty Lounge's Purple Haze.
lovely. i should try to do gradation mani like that. you just inspired me now thanks :D
ReplyDeleteYay glad you got some inspiration :) Post it when you do the mani!
DeleteI love it. You have a lot of purples!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I know...I love purple hehe
DeleteSo pretty! Your collection is drool-worthy. Purple is one of my favourites too :)
ReplyDeletelol! Yes! Yay for purple!
DeleteI haven't tried ombre nails but I love them! They look so neat!! ^.^
ReplyDeleteI know! I want to try doing them again with a different color :)
DeleteI need more purples in my stash-I am sorely lacking!
ReplyDeletelol! :P
DeleteSome of those camera settings have surprising effects--until I read your note on that I was wondering how many times you changed your mani. :)
ReplyDeletelol! It's cool seeing what the effects do to the mani :)
DeleteAll lovely colors!!!
ReplyDeletethanks! :D
DeleteAgain with the purples! ;) I almost got play date again, had it in my hand and put it back for the millionth time. Now I want Pucci-licious too. *sigh*

ReplyDeleteThank you! When I first saw Purple Haze...I knew I needed it in mine lol

Thanks! Ooh pink! Yea, I want to try it with other colors...
DeletePretty! I love how they all blend together! Great work, Traci!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kristen! <3
DeleteReally awesome mani!
ReplyDeleteThanks! :D
DeleteBeautiful!! :D Yay for purple! XD
ReplyDeleteHehe thanks! Purple love! :D
DeleteBeautiful ombre! The shades look perfect together!
ReplyDeleteAw thanks so much! :)
DeleteThis is gorgeous Traci!!! I love ombres and I love purple. Perfect combo ;0).
ReplyDeleteAw thanks, Marisa! Yay for both! :D
DeleteIs that Imperial Purple by American Apparel in that photo? I just got mine and it was broken :( I cannot wait to have enough purples to do an ombre! Yours looks fantastic! Purple is one of my favorites too <3
ReplyDeleteYes, it is! Oh no :( that's so sad! I can't wait to see a purple ombre from you :) yay for purple lovers!
DeleteI'm sure they'll replace it no problem if my guy can't fix it himself. Seems like it's something just a little glue will take care of ^.^
DeleteOh that's good! Yay! :D
DeleteI think I have on a super light shade of greyish purple. I don't reach for this color often, but I think it looks great on you and would compliment my skintone too. I think some shades are just a bit extreme...
ReplyDeleteI definitely like the light greyish purple colors. I would love to see the one you have!
Deletethats sooo pretty, i luv the gradation look...and purple looks good against your skintone. if i had all these colour or from another colour family i'd totally do it too...
ReplyDeleteJessy
yay thanks! I'd love to see yours when you get some similar colors :)
