Matte Gradient

I never wrote an update on my Halloween costume, did I? Well, the party was tons of fun and I won the best individual costume prize that I didn't even know about!  So I got a cute little bucket with some candy and stickers as a prize.  I also had some Halloween-y nails:

I used Let's Talk by SinfulColors and Black Lace Creme by N.Y.C. (neither are brands I would recommend, but they were the colors I wanted to use)

Since a gradient of anything (color, sparkle, etc.) seems pretty popular these days, I tried to do something that wasn't too crazy, so I used a soft brown color, gold sparkles, and topped it off with matte top coat.

I used Steel Grey by Rimmel London, Cleopatra by China Glaze and Matte Me Crazy by NYC.
