Ombre has become a growing popular nail trend, but until today I had no idea what ombre actually meant. People seem to use the terms “shade” and “gradient” almost interchangeably when it comes to nail art, but in reality they are very different forms. Although the two shapes are beautiful, the shadow actually switches between colors belonging to the same color family and the gradient switches between several colors. For this reason, shaded nails can take many forms, from gradient to color blocking and everything in between. Personally, I am in love with the shade trend. Finally, it is acceptable for me to paint my nails in five different shades of purple. Here are 17 incredibly beautiful shadow designs to inspire your own monochromatic manicure.
