Fading Color Nails

What I used: 

Essie's Sugar Daddy (light pink)

Essie's Loophole (silver)

Orly's Liquid Vinyl (black)

OPI's Meet Me on the Star Ferry (pink/purple)
**Ideally for the silver, black and pink you can use any colors you want**

Makeup triangle sponge (ripped into little chunks)

Paper plate or an Old CD/DVD 

**This is a time consuming project. You can't rush it.

Always start with a base coat before you start a project :) After the base coat I used 2 coats Essie's Sugar Daddy. It comes out as a super light translucent pink.
Now wait till the pink dries, it should not be tacky or wet.

**When you switch colors use a new sponge or switch it to and unused side.

Now for the fun part (she said ominously):
1. On the plate/CD/DVD put a couple of drops of silver
2. Take a piece of sponge and lightly dip into the silver taking the excess by dabbing to the side of the polish
3. Gently start from the tip and work your way down leaving 1-2 cm untouched by the silver. It should be super light.
4. Repeat steps 2 & 3 each time leaving more space untouched.
5. Now take the color of your choice (I used Orly's Liquid Vinyl for the top picture and OPI's Meet Me on the Star Ferry for the bottom picture) and repeat steps 1-4 but only going half way or even just the tips.

Let everything dry and use a top coat and voilà! C'est magnifique. You're done!
