[ITA & ENG]
Ciao a tutti!
Oggi vi faccio vedere una manicure che trovo abbastanza primaverile, creata con gli smalti Astra Expert Gel Effect n. 34 Peach e n. 35 Lily Grace.
Ho creato una sfumatura verticale tra i due colori, picchientandoli sulle unghie con un pezzetto di spugna, poi ho ritagliato alcuni pezzi di adesivi (in realtà sono quelli che funzionano ad acqua, ma tradurli in italiano mi viene difficile). Li ho stesi al centro delle unghie a unire, o dividere, i due colori e ho applicato il top coat.
Et voilà! Semplicissima ma d’effetto!
Hi everyone!
Today I’m showing you a pretty Spring manicure, made with Italian brand Astra’s nail polishes in #34 Peach and #35 Lily Grace.
I created a vertical gradient simply using a sponge, then I cut some water decals to apply where the colours meet, and finished with top coat.
Easy and effective!
Gli adesivi nascondono le imperfezioni nella sfumatura, ottimo quando qualcosa va storto! Bisogna solo stare attenti nella scelta del top coat, perchè alcuni ne sbavano il colore. In ogni caso sono molto contenta del risultato, la trovo una manicure semplice e fresca, perfetta per la bella stagione. E poi questi due smalti Astra sono ottimi, quindi è una gioia usarli per le nail art.
Cosa ne pensate? Vi piace?
Decals hide any imperfection in the gradient, which is great when you mess something up. You only have to be careful what top coat you’re using, because some smudge the decals’ colour. Anyway I am super happy with this look, I think it’s an easy and refreshing mani, perfect for the warm season. Plus these Astra nail polishes have such an awesome formula, I love using them for nail arts.
What do you think? Do you like this mani?

DeleteÈ davvero super carina, e quel motivo ci sta benissimo :)
ReplyDeleteGrazie :D
DeleteMolto bello, mi piace sia lo stamping che la combinazione dei colori! :-)
ReplyDeleteGrazie! Sono water decals, non stamping! Devo assolutamente comprare qualche plate con dei pattern dritti :P
DeleteThis is so lovely and soft-looking! I need to try a lateral gradient.
ReplyDeleteI love lateral gradients!
DeleteThis looks great!
ReplyDeleteAgree about the top coat, I reach for Seche Vite and thing noooo every time. As much as it looks great on polish, it kills nailart or decals
I love my Seche, too, but definitely not for nail arts!
DeleteWhat imperfections in the gradient?! This is beautiful. I would have never thought to pair those 2 colors either.
ReplyDeleteThank you! They are well hidden! ;)
DeleteWhat flaws? I see nothing but magic.
