How to do Sunset Ombre Nails at Home
Sunset ombre nails are pretty easy, and anyone can DIY the technique. The things you need for it are also basic. You will defo have those!
There are two ways to do it with a makeup brush or a sponge. You can use either upon availability.
What you need are three different nail colors. A base coat and a top layer. Lastly, a makeup sponge or a brush.
Should we first go with the makeup sponge technique? Alright. Here you go:
- Cut the makeup sponge according to the size of your nail. Make sure to create a smooth and flat surface.
- Apply a base coat. Do it whether your nail color claims to have a base coat. It will keep your mani last longer.
- Choose three different colors. For sunset ombre, you should choose pink, orange, and yellow. You can also alternate pink with red.
- Apply these colors to the makeup sponge in three layers. The bottom being the darkest and the top being the lightest.
- First, apply yellow on the top. Then orange. Finally, apply pink or red.
- Now apply these colors to your nail before it gets dried. Press the sponge on your nail for 3-5 seconds so the color fully transfers.
- If you haven’t got the desired result on the first go, you can do it again. You may need to do it multiple times to get your desired outcome.
- Finalize your ombre with a top coat. We promise it will help you to fade those sharp unsmudged lines.
How to make your manicure last longer
You were assuming your manicure would last for a week. But not even a day. Oh, that feeling of chipping off the very next day. Gosh. It’s so heartbreaking. Don’t worry. Here’s a secret recipe for you to make your manicure last longer.
- Choose a high-quality top coat that is chip resistant and provides adequate protection.
- The same goes for the base coat. Try choosing a solid base coat, as it is the pillar to protect the other layers.
- Apply clear nail paint after applying the top coat. This trick really helps. Try it!
- Wipe your nails with vinegar before doing a mani. It will remove the excess oil on nails that results in chipping later.
- You must reapply the top coat 2-3 days after a manicure.
