Moyra Vivid Sand Gradient

*Products in this post were discounted and/or provided in exchange for an honest review.
Hi guys, just a quick post from me again - I wasn't planning to post anything today, but I love this mani so much I couldn't wait to share it, so I'm not :D



So, this mani is a gradient with 2 of the Moyra vivid sands - Sunflower, which is one of the polishes I was sent to review, and Party Pink, which I purchased later on.  I started with just 1 coat of sunflower as a base, and sponged on my gradient quite roughly and carelessly.  I know that sounds counter-intuitive, but I wanted to get a really good mix of the colours in the middle, so went higher with the sponge than I normally do on some coats, and lower on others.
   Despite taping up my fingers before sponging I still had to do some pretty tough clean up to get the edges clean, but this is something I always find with textured gradients, which is why I don't do them that often :p
This mani was totally worth it though, I am completely in love with this.  It's so bright and cheerful, and I really like how it looks on my new nail shape too.
I'm actually still wearing this now, and I don't want to take it off just yet.  I haven't done my mani for the A-Z of polish tomorrow yet though, so I'll have to take it off soon :(  #nailbloggerproblems :p

So what do you guys think of this mani? Are you loving it as much as I am?

Also, Moyra now have their website up and running, and they're currently offering free delivery too.  Click here to go to the shop :D

  2. This is awesome! I understand you don't want to take it off!
    I wish Moyra was better available over here as well! (There is a webshop but it only sells a small part of the lines and no textureds or holos :(.. )
