This tutorial contains techniques already covered in previous posts. If you're not familiar with the ombre process, check out my in depth tutorial here.

​Also featured in this post is nail stamping. You can check out the full tutorial here.

Use the ombre technique and paint 3 coats using gold, light blue and a darker shade of blue. Cure after each coat.  If you're using regular polish make sure each coat is fully dry before moving onto the next one.

I used this geometry plate.

This is my favourite stamping polish! The colours are so opaque and transfer easily. You gotta try it! 

I used 3d metal studs and I put them on with this nail glue. I like that this glue has a brush so just apply where you need it.  The glue dries fast though so make sure you have your gems ready. A wax pencil makes picking up the gems very easy. You can use a white crayon instead but don't push too hard picking the gems up or it'll leave a white mark on them.  Add a top coat (around the gems, not over top) cure, and you're done. Now you have stunning beach nails that will get you compliments everywhere you go!
