Gradient captured all spheres, and its manifestations can be seen throughout. Accessories, hair, makeup, clothes, manicures sparkled smooth transitions from one color to another. This season Ombre has not disappeared, but only reincarnated, covering new forms, texture and even concepts.
Classic gradient manicure appeared as domestic hack - it did long and hard, dabbing sponge several layers of lacquer. After some time, some brands have given a craze and released new products that make life easier for fans gradient manicure. Still later appeared more complex variations Ombre with several colors and different texture.
Gradient of nails
For example, there were sets Pupa Nail Art Mania Degrade - they include a top special coating which "highlights" the main nail and makes it a few shades lighter. Gradient does not cover the nail, and all at once.
Thermovarnish
Later appeared heat-sealing Dance Legend, and behind them and varnishes other brands. They vary depending on the shade body temperature. Accordingly, on the tips of the nails are always darker, because the temperature is always below the free edge. By the way, recently appeared varnishes YSL, who do not have a gradient nikikogo relationship, but only make reference to it with its three-layer. The inspiration was the technique of gradient coloring fabric - Tie & Dye.
Even a little later, when experiments with sponges and novelties bored, new ideas and new implementation.
Gradient texture
Although the glitter has a different texture, it also has a color, which means that it can be used when creating the gradient.
Parallel (and recently) there was a tendency for the gradient mixing several shades. And this is what came of it.
Watercolor nails
Galactic patterns (Galaxy nails)
Without an actual galaxy and there has not been.
Structural gradient
This gradient can be called somewhat arbitrary, since the transition is not soft, but rather, simply layered - use different forms of several shades. Clouds, triangles, zigzags - everything is in motion.
