it looks like fake nails, which can be printed by nail printer. In my opinion, acrylic nails are more beautiful than real nails. Such nail designs always favored by young ladies. Decorate your nails is also an art. I started with base coat, then two coats of Miley to get an opaque lavender all over the nail. Then I did three-fourths of the nail in Erika, then half, then one-quarter (to complete the gradient – darker pink with each coat towards the end of the nail). I put a very thin layer of Miley over the whole thing to smooth out the gradient lines, and then decided to do the lattice design over the top with a white nail striper. But with the extreme pastel colors on my nail, the white was too glaring. So I brushed one last thin coat of Erika over the whole thing to tone down the white and give the finished nails a shimmer. I’m sure you can imagine the difficulty I had photographing this, but you can sort of see how the pink at the tops of the nail fades into lavender at the bottom. The shimmer gives it an optical illusion of sorts too – looking at the nails straight across the top just reveals the pink color, and as the nails are angled, the purple becomes more evident. There is nail printer for nail beauty, but I prefer hand work. I like these quite a bit better, and will continue to experiment with this gradient thing – I think with something glittery next time
