Pink Wednesday!! China Glaze Pink Sponge Gradient

Hi loves and happy late Pink Wednesday!

  Today I got a little creative and decided to do a spongy gradient with all China Glaze Pinks. Pictures first and then I'll blab :)!

  So for my base I used Three coats of Innocence and then I sponged it with Empowerment (which I am holding in the pic above) and at the very tips I used Rich and Famous. For the stamp I used plate BM221 and Konad Pink special polish. Then for good measure I added my new obsession, INM's Northern Lights top coat which gave it just the right amount of sparkle. For the sponging I used a make-up wedge.

Here is a swatch of CG's Innocence. Three coats, no top coat.

Sorry for the late post. But hey at least I made it to the party lool!!

    Usually I am not into pinks, at least not single because I feel they don't suit me. BUT this combination and the colors are really beautiful. I especially like the light pink shades! Thanks for sharing with us!
