VIDEO TUTORIAL AT THE END OF THE POST!
Neon summer collab time! Cause Nails Like Lace and Peace Love and Polish wanted us nailies to hold onto summer with neon nails cause we are all in denial that winter is on its way. Check out all the manis on this collab using the #summerneoncollab2014 hashtag on Instagram.
I used starburst nail vinyls from Nailvinyls.com to create the scaled gradient look.

Oh look, what do we have here?! Some randomness!!! I just freehanded the gradient divider line with some black acrylic paint and my Pure Color 10 detailer brush from Stylish Nail Art Shop on Etsy.
Gah, more randomness?! I topped it off with one thin coat of 'Solar Flare', a neon holo jelly from Beyond the Nail's summer galaxy collection (reviewed and swatched here). Why? I dunno. Must be the holo. I'm an addict.

That is one mani of awesomeness! I'm not ready to put my neon / summer polishes in the back of the closet either. I figure we're going to have months and months of dark (to me, dreary) winter nails so why not extend the bright. Thank you for the wonderful photos!
