Lazy Days of Summer-Summer Ombre

This will be short and sweet.  I hate ombres.  Not my thing.  I am doing it because I can't skip a challenge item.  The perfectionist in me just can't do it.  So here it is.....




This is Orly Snowcone mixed with white and black to make the variation in color.  I wore this long enough to take the pictures and then took it off.  Didn't even top coat it. Yuck. 

 I do want to share one thing though.....when I find a good tutorial I like to share the wealth and as far as ombres go....this one is stellar.  Some people prefer to pick different colors and vary creams and shimmers but if you want a straight up ombre in the same exact family.....check out this tutorial by Emily at The Lacquerologist.



The rest of the challengers....

    1. Ohhh, hehe....didn't forget you. I cheated off your last post and you (for obvious reasons) didn't link yourself to yourself. Fixed it. :)
