Fall glitter gradient with OPI and China Glaze

Hello lovelies,

I'm still feeling the fall (or autumn for my UK readers ;) and I'm not ready yet to give in to the winter and Christmas preparations. That's why I have here a totally fall manicure! I really like the burnt orange shades with gold and copper glitter gradient.

I've used OPI Deutsche You Want Me Baby as a base colour and for the gradient tip I've used China Glaze I Herd That. The topcoat I've used was Seche Vite Fast Drying Top Coat.

I love this particular one :) Thank for the tip on the how-to. I'm going to try it out today on the tips of Skyfall by applying Goldeneye :)) Hope it turns out well as it will be my first time ever :) Will share the result! Thanks!

Love this post! I kept coming back to look at it again and again! You inspired me, and I just did my first gradient ever. Your comment explaining you use a brush for glitter gradients was very useful to me. I brushed some Spoiled Pirate's Booty on first and then added some Wet N Wild Fergie Glamorous on the tips, all over my week old OPI Germanicure mani. Thanks so much for this post and for the inspiration!

Thanks for that tip..I always struggle doing glitter gradients with a sponge. This way seems so much easier! x

Thank you Sam. I always use brush for glitter gradients. I just leave a little bit of the glitter on it and add more later. I use sponge on all other gradients (non glitter) :)

This is so pretty. Did you do the gradient with the brush or a sponge?
