Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide

- Apply the purple nail polish to the tips of the nails.
- Use a makeup sponge to dab the two colors together, blending them for a smooth gradient.

Pro Tips
Work in thin layers to avoid polish from becoming bulky.
Use a small amount of glitter for a more subtle appearance or pack it on for a more dramatic effect.
Allow each layer to dry before applying the next to avoid smudging.
