Video how-to: sunshine ombré nails
Summer has officially landed, beauties. Well, on our nails at least.
To get our digits in the mood for lazy days at the beach, we’ve created a delightful nail art look with two ombré feature nails. They’re bright, they’re fun, and you’ll want to rock them, like, yesterday.
Wait… you’re thinking ombré nails are difficult to create, right? Wrong. With a few nifty tools and some hot nail hues, you’ll be sporting these sunshine-esque feature nails in no time at all.
THE TOOLS OF THE OMBRE NAIL TRADE
A clear basecoat
A bright orange or coral nail polish
A hot pink nail polish
A pair of tweezers
Two small pieces of sponge
A glossy topcoat
What do you think of this summer nail art look? Is ombré something you’re keen to try? Which colours would you use?

I love coral colours. I have one called I mainely eat lobster by Opi which is slightly pink and slightly red but still orange.

That is a lovely colour and nails look so well groomed when you look after them regularly

I'm with Rose, it looks fantastic, but does need a lot of patience

I think it looks fantastic, but I'm pretty hopeless when it comes to this kinda thing. I tend to stick to single colours. I don't have the patience.

This does look very effective, but very fiddly and time consuming for one nail on each hand - I'd love to see all the nails done! Would I do it? No, because I'd chip my nails within 24 hours!
