Here's a link to my YouTube tutorial on this technique. I did it with Shellac in my video, but obviously can be done with gel polish also xxx

CND Shellac Ombré Gradient - NO Additives! - YouTube

Gorgeous, and great video.

Is there a JG colour similar to CNDs Beau? I know Seashell Pink is a colour suitable for a french manicure but I wanted one more sheer/shimmery.

Can anyone help?

Am looking for a pinky coral...

Can anyone tell me if "just so lovely" is shimmery or has glitter in it? Some swatches online show it as being glittery.

I don't want any shimmer or glitter. Can anyone suggest a good colour? Xx

Polar sky is more solid silver glitter. Looks like the silver version of All that glitters. I have uploaded photos of all my swatches in the first pages of this thread. You can see it there :thumbup:

Just so lovely has a shimmer to it, maybe try serendipity?

Right I think I'm going to go for Just Gel, I'm very familiar with all Grafton's brands and IBD.

I'm just a bit concerned about what a few of you have said about the base coat...

if you don't use it, why?

And those that use the Gelish one instead, do you still brush it before applying your colour?

Thanks in advance?

I always use the complete system without any issues. I love Just Gel.

I use the artistic colour gloss base coat with my ibd & it's the best decision I ever made! I don't need to use powerbond & it removes easier.

I was often having issues with the polish not lasting & removal was a pain, the powerbond just didn't want to budge. (I actually thought about giving up on ibd) I decided to try the artistic colour gloss base coat & it's amazing! The gel lasts so much better & it dosnt need the powerbond to help it stick (1 less product & 1 less product application)

Can't recommend it enough!
I don't dry brush the base coat, but you can if you want)
