Purple Reign

With nail art designs getting crazier by
the minute, I'm embracing a more subtle
design for fall. The Gilded Fade manicure
makes an impact without being over the
top. It's the perfect accessory for any look.

1. Clean nails. 2. Paint nails with two coats of your      chosen nail polish. 3. Cut up an ordinary kitchen sponge      into thin rectangles. 4. Paint a different color directly onto      the sponge.

5. Dab sponge onto nails, focusing     on the tip, gradually fading as you     move up toward the moon. 6. Repeat until desired effect. 7. Clean up mistakes with a cotton swab      dipped in nail polish remover.
