Why is this revealing? Because you get to see more and more of the underlying color as you move towards my cuticle! Ta da!
I had so many ideas for this manicure…and this was not the one I had planned on doing. I accidentally minimized the window that contained my actual plan, and spotted my ever-present striping tape instead. Thus this mani was born, although I have to say that I like it better than what I did have planned! The black matte just makes it perfect. I am so glad I own one!
The basis of this mani is, of course, just a green/teal/blue ombre composed entirely of subtly holographic polish. Striping tape + black matte polish and voila!
Colors
- Light green: Nabi – Green
- Green: Darling Diva – Green Diamond
- Teal: Nabi – Teal
- Blue: Nabi – Ocean Blue
- Dark blue: Nabi – Navy Blue
- Black: Mentality – Rascal
Despite taking very little time, this mani (in my never humble opinion) looks pretty awesome! These colors are my go-to gradient/ombre/this-works-well-as-a-set. I should acquire a line-up in a different color sequence at some point!

Love those holos! And the matte black stripes look great!
thanks!
This is a great looking design/mani! I like the ombre of the different holos – they all go together so well. The matte black stripes are a terrific addition! Thank you for the wonderful photos.
thanks for the compliments! I’m pretty happy with this one.
I need that green on your pinkie! So pretty
I don’t usually go for light greens, but that pinky color makes me happy! its a bit thin so it needs 3-4 coats, but the payoff is worth it!
Loving this!
