Nailgasm: Ombre Nail Art Tutorial for Fall!

Sharing is caring!

Here’s a fresh trendy nail art tutorial to rock this fall: Ombre! Ombre isn’t a new trend–I’ve been seeing it for years, on everything from clothing to nail art to hair. And yet, its popularity still isn’t fading! Why? Probably because ombre is so fun to create and so easy to DIY especially on nails. Plus, all of these hot colors are on trend right now for fall and is from the latest welcome box from Julep.

Ombre Nail Art Step-by-Step Tutorial:

1. Choose three polishes that blend well together, spanning from dark to light. Not sure what to pick? You can’t go wrong with a deep, opaque color, a lighter shade of the same color, and white. First, polish your nails with your darkest color. Allow them to dry.

2. Pour two small dollops of your medium and light colors on a smooth surface (like a piece of wax paper). The two dollops together should be about two-thirds the length of your nails. Use a toothpick or orangewood stick to swirl them together slightly so they mix in the middle, forming a gradient.

3. Dip the edge of a cosmetic sponge directly into your dollops of nail polish then align the sponge so that the lightest color is at the tip of your nail. Press the polish onto your nails with the sponge, dabbing and repeating until you achieve the desired effect. This doesn’t have to be precise!

4. Clean up the edges with a polish corrector pen or a thin brush dipped in polish remover. Finish with a top coat. Voilà!
