ASBMF #6-Ombre

OK, now that I know what ombre means.  I have researched this quite a bit since I saw it on the challenge list.  There was much discussion on the facebook page regarding whether this means fading colors on the same nail or from one nail to the next.  It seems that there is no clear answer on this.  I did learn that it is french for shaded so I guess that means you can shade whatever, and however you like.  I like both looks but I LOVE that clean transition on one nail when it comes out right. And.....I love the opportunity to use purple in any way, shape or form.

So here is my "ombre" using the sponging technique with a cosmetic sponge.  I used Revlon's Impulsive and Charming and Milani's Violet Dash.  Of course, I started out with a white base coat.  Some imperfections because I did the base at night and then went to bed after two coats so there are some subtle wrinkle marks.

Even with the flaws, I am totally in love with the color.
