Nails being painted with ORLY Lift The Veil nail polish

Step 1.


Prep your nails and apply ORLY Bonder Base Coat


Paint all nails with two coats of ORLY Lift The Veil nail polish.


Top tip: Using a lighter colour near to the cuticle area lets you paint the colour all over the nail, and it's also less noticeable as your nails start to grow!


Step 2.


Paint a horizontal stripe with ORLY Scenic Route nail polish in the middle of the nail

Step 3.


Use a sponge to fade the polish up and down the nail. Repeat until you're happy with the coverage


Top tip: you can use any sponge to create your fade, we'd recommend using a makeup sponge

Step 4.


Paint the edge of the nail to create a colourful French tip with ORLY Gumdrop nail polish.

Step 5.


Using a clean sponge, gently fade up ORLY Gumdrop polish

 into ORLY Scenic Route nail polish. Repeat until you're happy with the coverage of the polish on the nail plate. 

Step 6.


Apply ORLY Glosser Topcoat to finish your unicorn ombre nail design. 


Top tip: Finishing with a glossy topcoat neatens the look of the fade and blends the colours together for a professional finish
