Ombre Nail Tutorial and Free Welcome Box from Julep

September 18, 2015 by Albion

**This post contains sponsored content and affiliate links.**

I was slow to catch onto the ombre trend, but I’ve become a big fan. It has certainly stuck around! It’s a lot of fun to create and super easy to DIY. We’ve been seeing it in everything! Julep has shared a new ombre nail tutorial that uses colors from their ‘Fall Into Ombre’ Welcome Box – FREE when you join Julep Maven. You know I’m a huge Julep fan and tutorials like this make me love them more!

Fall in to Ombre tutorial

Let’s get started! 

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. 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 our polish corrector pen or a thin brush dipped in polish remover. Finish with a top coat. Voilà!
